Journal Gazette 02/10/2007 NASCAR spreads global wings:

"I feel your pain, Bubba. While you were off drinking another Bud (’cause, you know, that’s Dale Jr.’s fave), somebody swiped your “3 Forever” flag, made Ken and Barbie the first couple of your sport and turned all your favorite races into the USG Sheetrock 400.
Sorry, Bubba. But NASCAR – and by that I mean, your NASCAR – is dead. Or to put it another way: “NASCAR es muerto.”
Brush up on your Spanish (and Japanese), because the sport’s goin’ international, and there isn’t a thing you can do to stop it. Juan Pablo “Hut” Montoya, F1 glamour puss, is coming to Nextel Cup as a sort of life-imitates-art Jean Gerard from “Talladega Nights.” Toyota, having tested the waters in the Craftsman Truck Series the past few seasons, is jumping into Cup, too. Old-school types are all up in arms about it, particularly the Toyota part."
