If that happens, where do I buy tickets???? 
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.
nice elevation changes there...especially the uphill from the start
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.

On Circuit of the Americas: I thought one earned Heaven, not built it...
Could be possibly an excuse to visit my mom. 
My wife keeps talking about these rooster teeth guys or somethin down there. I'll convince her that's why were going.
