Tom in Austin

Fun video, bet David Coultard had a blast!

I need to come back to Texas next fall! Love the rooster tail on the dirt track BTW.

Holy crap ... the car would have been a POS after all that.

Yeah, the radiators and intake must have been impressive with all that dirt. I wonder how the cattle guard at 2:28 felt in the car. Be interesting to see how they set up the suspension for all of that, not sure there's a 'dirt track' setting for RBR F1 chassis....

Is there still plans for a 928 gathering that week//end? I plan on heading out there but need some options because I'll barely afford the drive + tickets to the race.

Thought the race was a nogo.

Its a definite GO

I really hope Austin goes ahead. The track looks like being a beauty, completely unlike the horrid new tracks Formula One has been reduced to driving on over the last 15 years...
As for the car turning into a POS after the run, probably, but I`ll bet the parts were at their end of their life anyway and Red Bull has truck loads of them to use up... Red Bull do a lot of this kind of thing, and the other teams could well take a leaf out of their book.

I hope it comes together, too. Attending will be an adventure trip!

RKD in OKC

When they do that with their race cars, I can guarantee it is an older, out-of-date chassis/car that is no longer raced and basically used for "Show" anyway.

Cool video. If that's one of Coulthard's actual cars, it'd have to be several years old since he retired in 2008.
Used to love watching him & Schumacher battle back in the day. One of my fav. F1 moments was when Schumacher passed Coulthard closely & received a middle finger in protest from Coulthard. The announcer quipped something like, "....and Coulthard gives Schumacher a 'One Finger Salute' as he goes by".

Wouldn't it would be great if there was a die-hard 928'er in Austin, who had a bit of property there, and a big barn, who would allow a group of fellow 928'ers to come and spend a few days up there, to use as a base camp for the event?

Imagine how fun that would be!

I have serious doubts this race is going to occur. Friend of mine was at the track a couple weeks ago. It's NOWHERE close to being finished.

Try booking a hotel for that weekend online.... the Hampton Inn shows $700/night... highway robbery.

There ya go Texas, don't build the track, just have a cross country F1 race.
Now THAT would be exciting to watch
