"I understand [Montreal] is great and I'm really excited to watch the race there," he said. "We have a lot of fans there. They all come down and watch our races and it's a huge, untapped market for us there."

His only concern: sponsorship.

Johnson said American-based sponsors appealing to consumers in a French-speaking country could present potential barriers.

"If we can just get the sponsorship piece to make sense crossing the border," he said, "I think we'll see Nextel Cup making the move there."

Uh....Beavis.......I bet Johnson is real popular right now in Vancouver,Toronto and just about everywhere else in Canada that is not in Quebec or Montreal.

In his defense, every Canadian fan I've met at NHIS has been Québécois.

And, he's not quoted as saying "country." It's quite likely the reporter's mistake.
