Chicago isn't like Cleveland (where they run on an airport) or Miami or Long Beach where traffic isn't an issue. They would have to do it in Grant Park, but it's pretty much booked up for the summer.
Chicago has had a CART race every year since 1997(?)... they couldn't draw 10,000 fans last year. The IRL had 50-60,000 in Joliet.
PS - Sam Hornish is insane. He ran outside the last two laps, 3 wide, where no one else had run all day, to win the event.
