Detroit Grand Prix May Move

Quinn Klinefelter of member station WDET reports that promoters of the Detroit Grand Prix are hoping to move the car race from its current home on Bell Isle to a proposed site at the state fairgrounds. Michigan's Governor John Engler supports the idea, but Detroit Mayor Dennis Archer is opposed. Archer says although he supports a new site, the proposed fairground location, would cause too many problems for the surrounding residents.
