Las Vegas will have a replica of the famous Nürburgring Race Track

Las Vegas is known for casinos and famous hotels that are true copies of historical monuments from around the world. Those who have the opportunity to visit the city can visit Caesar's Palace, the Eiffel Tower and even the Pyramids of Egypt, all in one place!

Because, according to information published by the site AutoGuide, the city may soon offer another replica. Bruton Smith, CEO of Speedway Motorsports, a corporation that runs racing circuits such as NASCAR and IZOD IndyCar, wants to build a clone of the Nürburgring German racetrack in Las Vegas.

But don't worry, it's not a billion-dollar hotel or casino project, but a racing circuit that Smith intends to build about 10 miles from the city. The businessman admitted to talking to "some Germans" about the possibility of duplicating the race track, and met with the Nevada state governor and the land administration department to discuss the 32 square kilometers he needs to set up. the project.

Smith said that if the project gets approved and gets off the ground, the race track will be a test for both car makers and speed enthusiasts. The ability to test new vehicles in the United States would save a lot of resources for US drivers, who have to move all their equipment, vehicles and full team to Europe to get their cars tested.
