NASCAR MAKING INROADS INTO MEXICO
This weekend's Busch Series event is expected to draw 140,000.
By Jay Hart, The Morning Call

NASCAR keeps marching on, pulling up its roots in the Deep South and planting them elsewhere. The sport first ventured west to California, then north to Indianapolis, followed by invasions of Texas and Las Vegas and Chicago. Sunday, NASCAR will make its way to Mexico City.

The Telcel Motorola Mexico 200, a Busch Series event, will be the first race on foreign soil for any of NASCAR's three premier series. The race is expected to draw some 140,000 spectators, but that's not why NASCAR is heading south of the border. No, the real reason NASCAR is going to Mexico sits a lot closer to home.
