Two-time Daytona 500 champ Dale Earnhardt Jr. won't be racing next month, but he gave the course through Grant Park a test run this week – in an SUV in regular traffic.
CBS 2 Sports Director Marshall Harris took a ride with Earnhardt and NASCAR Chicago President Julie Giese.
The NASCAR legend won't be racing in next month's NASCAR Chicago Street Race, but he's been waiting for this, even if the city's streets will provide a very different challenge than the simple winding ways of a traditional road course. The just over 2-mile loop is full of sharp left and right turns taking drivers on Michigan, Columbus, and DuSable Lake Shore Drive to name a few streets, but it's the left turn off Columbus and down Balbo Drive that will likely leave them airborne.
