    This is on top of a major 24 hour race, IRL, Rolex, ALMS, etc.

    It seems every major racing body wants to add Austin to their calendar.

    That's the best illustration of a track layout that I've ever seen.

    It's a counter clockwise track so the start heads you uphill.

    Yeah, why all the complaining? Track of dreams...if you build it, they will race!

    The track is currently under construction. Do we need any more reasons to build it? It IS being built.
