See, I wasn't lying, and i'm not crazy, check out this proof...

Phoenix did host the Grand Prix for a few years, (remember that conversation?)

"Anxious to showcase F1 in America, organizers moved the Grand Prix to a downtown street course in Detroit in 1982, where it stayed until 1988. F1 also made brief appearances in Dallas (1984) and finally at Phoenix (1989-91). The year 1982 was special in F1 history because the U.S. had three races - at Long Beach, Las Vegas and Detroit. "

Wow, and I was under the impression F1 in the US died at Watkins Glen... I guess that's what I get from learning my F1 history by playing Grand Prix Legends! :lol:
