THE SERIES HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
If, like me, you fondly remember the intense GRASCAR and GRACE championships, you should be familiar with this series. The Thunder Alley Global Series is, as it's name implies, a stock car championship on the world scale. You'll be fighting for victory on a variety of venues, ranging from the tight streets of St. Petersburg, to the open superspeedway of Daytona, and even travel overseas to world-renowned circuits such as Suzuka. Don't wait on this mammoth of a racing adventure - sign up and join me on what could be one of the most epic race series this side of GR-F1.
