Grand-Am will debut road events for its Rolex Sports Car and Continental Series on July 27. The Nationwide Series will debut at the Speedway on July 28, and the Brickyard 400 will be July 29. It will be the first time that IMS will have road and oval races during the same weekend.

The Nationwide race will move from its longtime home at Lucas Oil Raceway. The Truck Series is expected to remain at LOR, likely on Friday night.

"We are the only event on the series schedule that has one event on a race weekend," Boles said last month. "Friday, the Cup cars have two hours on the track.
