A word about race names...

I don't think we should call road-course races Grand Prixs anymore. It's a term that's supposed to be reserved for open-wheel racing, and I really want to keep AARO and NORA looking as much like real stock car series as possible.

What should we name them then?

Name them "insert sponsor here" at "insert track name here", or "insert sponsor name here" "race distance"K

Good idea, although converting the distance to kilometers may be a pain.

True. But I still don't see it as necessary.

Grands Prix is just the plural, a single event is still called Grand Prix.

Is a prick, feminine? That would make it GRANDe prix.

What does prick, or feminine have to do with anything?
