V8 Supercar Series coming to Austin in 2013 - Autoblog
It's official – Australia's V8 Supercars series is set to bash fenders in Austin, Texas in 2013. The news comes hard on the heels of the Austin city council approving the United States Grand Prix Formula One race at the Circuit of the Americas.
The FIA-sanctioned touring car series has signed a five-year contract and the two 124-mile (200-km) races will be televised live on SPEED. The 3.4-mile Circuit of the Americas will also play host to MotoGP bike racing, having sewn up that series from 2013 to 2022. Check out the full details in the press release after the jump.

I approve of this. Its better than Nascar and anything that brings success to the Austin track is insurance for the F1 USGP. I really want that track to become successful at bringing in international/world races (which is what they're aiming for). Its a quick flight from anywhere in the US, that track is gonna be awesome.
