Look at all the production class racing that is so popular in Europe and a lot of those are even run on city streets.. how cool is that?
Thats what I want to see more of. I want to see a Pontiac GTO and a Lexus IS going door to door thru a corner while I am standing on a street corner. Now thats racing.
Racing isn't just for the drivers but it's also a spectator sport. While it is easy to shoot cars going in circles it makes for much more interesting racing when it is on your street.

NASCAR does have its 2 road course events, Sonoma Sears Point and Watkins Glen, but I get the gist of your comment. You'd like watching the American Le Man series
http://www.americanlemans.com/home/index.aspx where they have a sedan class, with BMW's, Minis, Lexus, Honda/Acuras, etc. racing on road coarses around the country. I always liked watching the old IMSA series myself.
