Kansas Speedway officially petitioned NASCAR for another Sprint Cup Race in 2011.
↵There's no word on potential dates although spokesman Lenny Santiago said he hopes to have an answer by the end of the summer.
↵↵Santiago believes Kansas is a strong candidate to get a second race because of the track's history of well-attended events and the construction of a new casino overlooking the track. It also could help that NASCAR's primary sponsor, Sprint, is headquartered in Overland Park.
