For the NASCAR schedule I wrote a little script that took the data and generated an ICS file from it. If you are putting it into CSV, then you obviously know what the field mapping is, so you can write them out to the ICS. One ICS file can have multiple VEVENTS in it, so it can all be pulled in using one import. See below for an example, although you can also add VALARM to it for reminders if so inclined.
