Grand Slam Track has announced the competition schedule for the third SLAM of his inaugural season, a group of new elite challengers who will compete in Philadelphia, plus subsubs in the format of the competition for the Philadelphia Slam.
The Philadelphia SLAM will now post Franklin Field in two days, instead of three, on 31 May – 1 June.
“When we come from a great sold-out Miami Slam, we have taken the time to celebrate the successes that we have achieved in our inaugural season, but also have a look at ways to improve Grand Slam Track in real time,” said Grand Slam Track founder Michael Johnson.
“We have said all the time that we want to mention our fans, athletes and coaches, and that we have heard feedback from various important stakeholders, we have made the decision to condensate our schedule in Philadelphia in two, high-ectaan, and intense day of battle racing racing racing racing racing.
Johnson believes that the new streamlined competition format of Philadelphia SLAM will benefit the fans present, and viewers at home who offer intensely, condensed, high-stakes track.
