(CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — Clear Channel Entertainment is building a 44,120-square-foot office building in Chicago for its motor sports division, which produces events such as monster truck and dragster races and stages more than 660 events per year and over 250 hours of network and cable programming, featuring such racing series as Supercross, USHRA Monster Truck Jam presented by Ford Trucks, IHRA Drag Racing and others.
In 2001, Clear Channel Entertainment Motor Sports Group acquired the International Hot Rod Association (IHRA), a premier drag racing series.
