With no race in Southern California for 2025, what plans does NASCAR have to get back to the vital TV market? The Fontana short track remains years away if it will ever be built. So, what can be done in the meantime?
NASCAR remains interested in the Southern California market. It has to. That area is too important to ignore as a major sports series. The Busch Light Clash at the Coliseum was temporarily the fix.

In 2025, the Chicago Street Race will finish its third event of a three-year deal. If that isn’t extended, could the Cup Series go somewhere in California? Like San Diego?
NASCAR COO Steve O’Donnell told Adam Stern of Sports Business Journal the sport has, “a number of folks who are interested at looking at NASCAR from a street race [perspective]. … “We are certainly interested in California and the Southern California market, and that will continue to be a focus for us, but nothing to confirm at this point.”
So, that’s a yes, but a no. I’m sure NASCAR would LOVE to have a race in San Diego. The logistics of making it happen are much different. While the Chicago Street Race has grown on locals, there have been criticisms.
Should the Cup Series have a street race elsewhere, those same criticisms would likely arise. Shutting down streets and roads has consequences, even if temporary.

The Chicago Street Race is a unique event in NASCAR. Street racing is something that has only ever been done in sports car racing and open-wheel such as F1 and IndyCar. To put stock cars on the streets of Chicago is a big deal.
Speaking with Adam Stern of Sports Business Journal, O’Donnell highlighted the positive parts of the race. However, challenges remain.
“For us, we’re just looking at 2025. It’ll be the third year of a three-year run and each year we’ve wanted to build upon the momentum that we have,” O’Donnell told Stern. “We’ve learned things each and every year – it’s our first street race, a lot of learnings came from that. A lot of weather challenges as well. … We’ve made some tweaks to the event format and continuing to evolve that as well, so we’ll get through the event, see where things are, but concentrating on 2025 and making that event as successful as it can be.”
That doesn’t sound confident for a continued event in Chicago. But that was never the goal. NASCAR wanted to show that it could host a street race first. Now they can take that concept pretty much anywhere that will have them.

The Republican-dominated Ohio state Senate passed House Bill 8 on Thursday, which includes a provision that mandates public schools to allow students to leave school property to attend religious instruction offsite.
According to the bill’s text, the provision calls for schools to provide “released time,” which is defined as “a period of time during which a student is excused from school to attend a course in religion instruction conducted by a private entity off school property.” The final bill included language requiring schools to provide released time, opposed to a previous version of the bill that made it optional.
A later stipulation states that transportation of the student is incumbent on the “sponsoring entity, parent, guardian, or student” and that the school district is not liable in damages if the child is harmed during transportation.
The released time provision was met with opposition from Ohio Democrats, including Rep. Joe Miller (D-Amherst), who is a former teacher. On the Ohio House floor, Miller implied that the provision was unconstitutional.
“You’re mixing religion and education in public schools,” Miller said. “I mean, I’ve seen unconstitutional stuff come our way. It just continues.”

He then pitched the scenario of a school superintendent extending the school day by an hour, with students not taking religious instruction being able to leave.
Senate Minority Leader Nickie Antonio (D-Lakewood) also opposed the bill’s provision to require schools to report a student’s request to identify as a gender not assigned to them at birth.
“It’s certainly not what the children and the teachers and the parents of Ohio need,” Antonio reportedly said. “I think we need to maintain the ability of children to be able to talk to teachers, social workers, counselors, with some confidentiality, and parents need to be able to be involved with their children, but also know that sometimes children need somebody to talk to.”
Antonio also disagreed with the released time aspect of the legislation.
“It disrupts the flow of (students) dealing with their studies,” Antonio continued. “I think it needs to be on an individual school district basis to make those kinds of decisions.”
Rep. Josh Williams (R-Sylvania Twp.) responded to Democratic pushback and school districts potentially working around the released time provision by telling his colleagues “FAFO.” This acronym stands for “f— around and find out.”

The separation of church and state is a principle that derives from the Consitution’s First Amendment, which states that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.” In recent years, the conservative majority on the Supreme Court of the United States has chipped away at separation of church and state precedent with rulings upholding prayer in public schools and public money for religious schools.

A new kind of space technology is being developed in New Hampshire to help protect satellites and other spacecraft.
Scientists from the University of New Hampshire and Rogue Space Systems in Laconia have teamed up to develop a model that will track radiation levels in space.
The goal of the partnership is to build a new model that will predict weather in space, monitoring what are known as electron flux levels.
“We want to be able to better predict when they arrive and what type of influence they will have on radiation belts specifically for protecting satellites in that area,” said Reka Winslow, UNH Space Tech Hub director.

If the levels are high, satellites and other spacecraft in the area can be damaged.
“Certain subsystems within satellites are more vulnerable to electronic fluxes than others,” said Jon Beam, of Rogue Space Systems.
The model will study and predict the levels. That information will then be used to know when to turn off systems to avoid damage.
“So you can say, ‘OK, I had an anomaly. I experienced this. I’m going to wait for another hour before I turn back on, because I know that if I turn back on right now, I’m still more vulnerable,'” Winslow said.
Beam said being able to tell what’s behind an unexpected event could be helpful in determining if something else damaged a spacecraft, such as foul play from another nation.
“I think that’s a real important aspect that can’t be understated, as well,” he said.
This won’t be the first model to predict electron flux levels in the radiation belts, but it will offer an improved forecast over current models, officials said.
The model is expected to take about six months to develop. Winslow said UNH scientists are well versed in the area and will be using previous models that are similar but use different data.
“And so we’re going to be applying this machine learning model that we already have in a different area to something that we haven’t modeled yet,” she said.
