While most of these talks pan out to nothing, the rumor of a Texas GP is getting stronger according to Superbikeplanet.
com who is reporting that Austin will be hosting a round in 2013 and that we should be getting confirmation as soon as next week, and that the US may be getting three GP rounds, with Indianapolis Motor Speedway still in negotiations to get a further extension to their contract after 2011.
