Race eight, marking the halfway point of the IndyCar™ Series, takes place here at Kansas Speedway near Kansas City, which has been host to the IRL since 2001. Cars run the small-wing, low-downforce configuration on this 1.5-mile track, but despite its size, the 15-degree banked turns are lower than those at Texas, another 1.5-mile oval. As a result, there is only one effective groove through the corners, so be careful while passing in the turns. As a result, horsepower and the handling of your car are going to be the deciding factors to get on the podium here, so make sure you set up your car correctly for optimal performance. -- \/ DELETE ONCE COMPLETE (ICS1 SCRIPT FOR REFERENCE) \/ -- Race nine of the Indy Racing League season takes place here at Kansas Speedway, Kansas City, which has been host to the IRL since 2001.
