On July 7, 2022, Jordan Bianchi from The Athletic reported that an official announcement of a Chicago street race being added to the Cup Series schedule would come on July 19. On June 17, Adam Stern from Sports Business Journal suggested that the Chicago Street Course could replace Road America on the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series schedule, as the street race would likely replace one of the road course races and Road America did not have a contract to have a Cup Series race in 2023.

Ever since then, there had been rumors and speculation that NASCAR would like to make this track a reality and have a street race in Chicago on the Cup Series schedule in the future. The iRacing event was broadcast live on NASCAR on Fox on Wednesday, June 2. On March 24, 2021, NASCAR announced that an imaginary street course in the Chicago Loop in Downtown Chicago would be the track for the fifth (and what turned out to be the final) race of the 2021 eNASCAR iRacing Pro Invitational Series.

The track was initially a conceptual track on iRacing made for the eNASCAR iRacing Pro Invitational Series in 2021. The Chicago Street Course is a 2.140 mi (3.444 km) street circuit in the city of Chicago, Illinois, United States that will host the NASCAR Cup Series and NASCAR Xfinity Series on July 1–2, 2023.
