Sorry if this is a repost:

Danica Patrick, Buddy Rice Ready to Motor Around Ghirardelli Square
Wendsay, August 24, 2005
The IRL IndyCar Series® will take over historic Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco on Wednesday, Aug. 24, with the first Chocolate Mini-Grand Prix.
Star drivers Danica Patrick and Buddy Rice will pilot their Argent Mortgage/Pioneer open-wheel cars in a low-speed grand prix, which will circle the four square blocks around Ghirardelli Square. The two drivers will be joined by Menards Infiniti Pro Series™ driver Travis Gregg (Sam Schmidt Motorsports) in the three-car caravan that will do three or four laps. The drive will take place at 11:30 a.m.
These will be the same machines you will see on the track later in the week at the Argent Mortgage Indy Grand Prix at Infineon Raceway (Aug. 26-28). Come by and check out these amazing cars up-close, and also take part in a driver autograph session that will take place in the courtyard at Ghirardelli Square later that day.

Yes, the Ghirardelli Square run is a promotional event for the weekend race (8/26-28) at Infineon. Supposely it's the 1st time IRL competes on a permanent road course in history.
