| Reading the article about the Austin track name, i couldn't help wondering if they were planning to host the Canadian & Brazilian G.P.s as well. |

My guess is that it's going to be like the "World" Series.  |

Well with Austin close to the Mexican Border and with the backround
of the investors, it is obvious that they do not only target US fans. So with
that the name make sense to me. Regarding to Canada ... well lets say
that for a lot of Canadians Texas seem to be "closer" then Quebec  _________________ another kraut in kanada |
