New street circuits in Baltimore and Oklahoma City are set to join the American Le Mans Series calendar next year.Series bosses are known to be in talks with the IRL over joining its event on the streets of Maryland's largest city, while officials in Oklahoma revealed back in March that they too were speaking to the ALMS.This week's AUTOSPORT magazine reports that both venues are close to concluding deals to host the ALMS in 2011, with series boss Scott Atherton also confirming that dicussions had taken place.Baltimore is expected to replace the tight, 1.5-mile Lime Rock Park as the event in the US north east - a key market for the series' manufacturers - following criticism of the Connecticut circuit.Oklahoma would likely take the Indpendence Day weekend date at the beginning of July.
