Nascar and others to Mexico City?

"Adding just one road course would likely be financially impractical for Busch or Trucks, but NASCAR has made clear its desire to race in Mexico, where the Mexico City track would also be a road course. Two road course events would make much more sense financially."

From a link in the IRL forum. Whole article is a good link:

I'm more than a little worried about this. CART may be the only big series with Mexican drivers, but there are a lot of series with a lot of muscle. It makes complete sense for Nascar to go to Mexico, they've been making moves towards Canada as well. CART's monster Mexican races had to open some eyes in all the major series. WRC was already there this year and F1 is expanding to all sorts of debatable destinations (so why not go to a real one like Mexico?). Now Nascar and IRL may move there too. Without Mexico CART might not be have existed in 2004.

The article also makes mention of the IRL not racing at Nazerth. Maybe a future opportunity for CART?
