Baltimore Grand Prix

Start your engines! The second Baltimore Grand Prix is just days away. We check in with Tim Mayer, general manager of the Grand Prix of Baltimore for Andretti Sports Marketing and J.P. Grant, the Columbia-based financier heading Race On LLC (which has a five-year contract to put on the city's IndyCar race,) about how the race is shaping up, speak with Team Baltimore Racing driver Marc Bunting, and get listener questions and comments about the big Labor Day weekend event.

Veteran racing writer Sandra McKee of the Baltimore Sun sizes up the drivers and their teams for the first Baltimore Grand Prix, and we provide almost everything you need to know about attending (or avoiding) the IndyCar races this weekend.

Scheduled for this coming Labor Day weekend, the Baltimore Grand Prix is expected to bring large revenues to downtown businesses and give the city a rare opportunity for national exposure. But many city residents have voiced their disapproval over the amount of time and money being invested in the race. Jay Davidson, president of Baltimore Racing Development and Marc Bunting of Team Baltimore Racing join us to discuss preparation for, what to expect from, and answer your questions about the Baltimore Grand Prix.
