(804 posts)...about putting together a real track meant for real racing in that period of time, but I'm going to speculate that this course will be put together with imagery more than racing in mind.
I would guess it will be more like the Roman Colosseum where they staged mock battles compared to the real battles in the field where actual glory and treasure was earned for aspiring Roman soldiers.
We have one hint in the official release from IndyCar about the route: "INDYCAR To Deliver First Motor Race in History on the National Mall."
We can anticipate what some of the images that we will be served up by the regime will be: racing down Constitution Ave. NW; racing across the Arlington Memorial Bridge and through the stupid Arc that will be there by that time; racing up 15th Street around the Washington Monument; racing up Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House. 14th Street SW or one side of Independence Avenue could be the pit lane.
Many of these roads are already fairly large and open enough to create a street course easily enough.
Will it be a great race? Probably not. Is that the point of the whole thing? Definitely not.
As empty of meaning as the man that envisioned it, the Freedom 250 Grand Prix of Washington, D.C., will inevitably be far more of an embarrassing propaganda event than real race. But with the value of propaganda being so incredibly important to this regime, you can bet that it will actually happen in some form. Whatever the reality, it will certainly be touted as the biggest, the best, and something nobody ever thought was possible....
