A day after the Xfinity Series race, the NASCAR Chicago Street Race will bring the world’s best stock car drivers to the Windy City on Sunday, with plenty of festivities and fireworks expected.
While the 2023 race was a rain-soaked affair, eventually won by Shane Van Gisbergen, the 2024 race hopes for cleaner racing and a beautiful look at downtown Chicago as NASCAR drivers burn rubber on Michigan Avenue, DuSable Lake Shore Drive and many more iconic city streets.
