this is correct. NASCAR is a sanctioning body that does not directly own any
race tracks. if we wanted to tag sanctioning bodies it would need to be a
separate tagging scheme. since sanctioning body/track relationships can be
quite fluid, it's a very poor candidate for tagging in OSM.

we already have fairly functional tagging for race circuits. i could
imagine some
tweaks but i don't think we really need this.
