Not to sure about a Cup event up North, the Evernham/Montreal Canadiens marriage may be a clue but the lack of an oval larger than 5/8ths of a mile reduces the chances. Not that I would be against another road course, in terms of "money" it would make it more cost effective for teams to have another circuit. Using a road course car 3 versus 2 times a year is more cost effective but admittedly it would be a small advantage. I vote for the later as well George.

After all NASTYCAR doesn't have any ethical codes do they? Oh yeah I forgot, they have the "If we don't like it, it's illegal" rule. What I can't figure out, did Warren change the sotware and simulations, or did he ignore the early season test results from Vegas and build on outdated info? Sounds like the latter. Ray's marriage to a Canadian partner surely signals a future Cup race(s) north of the border.
