As opposed to the F1 race that's coming here in a few weeks, I'm very excited about this race coming to Austin! The track is about 10 miles from me.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Looks like a bunch of freinds and I are making the 18 hour drive down from Ohio... A good friend of mine moved over from Aussie about 6 years ago and that how I know about the sport.

You wont need to go to any other events. Bathurst starts Wednesday with the camping and partys its full on and Monday after you drive your own car on the track when they open the road to the public you will be knackered.trust me.only thing that spoils that is the speed camera at the bottom of conrod straight. bugger!!!

monarogirl, I was thinking of traveling from Australia to see the Texas round. I was wondering if any other car events might be on in Texas around that time.
Texas is one area in the States I haven't really visited so I'm sure there will be plenty to do if not.
