RE: Kentucky Speedway:
" The basis of the lawsuit was simple: independently-owned Kentucky Speedway opened its doors in 2000, upgrading its facilities since in hopes of landing a date on the Sprint Cup tour. Instead, it's been largely ignored while other tracks such as Chicagoland, Kansas, Texas, California and Phoenix landed coveted extra dates on the schedule.
Four of those five tracks are owned by International Speedway Corporation (ISC) -- a company owned and operated by the France family. In fact, the company currently heads up 12 of the 22 tracks listed on the 2008 Cup slate -- enough to raise some eyebrows, considering that NASCAR's CEO is none other than Brian France. "
