Clash at the Coliseum – Groundbreaking for NASCAR

Currently, the venue is being adapted to the demands of stock car racing. Approximately $1 million is being spent on constructing the quarter-mile track. But that amount is nothing compared to the doors a successful Clash will open for NASCAR.

As Bob Pockrass said, “if the race works at the LA Coliseum, it opens up the possibility to do that at other stadium venues, and not just in the U.S.”

And as for how the racing action would feel like, here’s what former driver Michael Waltrip said, “You will get cold chills when you walk through the peristyle and see this race track.”

He added, “Kind of makes me want to get back behind the wheel.”

So NASCAR fans, what are you waiting for? Grab your tickets here for the historic Clash at the Coliseum before they sell out.
