I know where TWS and COTA are, but where are these other tracks located?

If anyone needs help/guidance in Austin, just call or text my cell phone 972 742 7811. I live about 20 minutes from the track. My favorite local shop is Moorespeed. David Moore is a friend and they handle many of the Ferraris, Porsches, etc. in Austin. Last time my car was at his shop they had one of Michael Dell's cars there . Would trust him with anything. Taking my boys to watch the racing. See you there.

ps. its a freak thing when it gets below 40 in Austin, so don't worry about weather. Just make sure and eat lots of bbq and tex mex while you are here...

Do you know if they provide Arrive & Drive service (not full track support) to trailer my RS to a few tracks and store it for about a month? I'll get the car shipped out to Austin via semi with a few other folks most likely so Arrive & Drive is all that I need from a good local shop.

Cresson is in.....ummmm.....Cresson.

MSR Houston is not as nice for an RS, but it is in Angleton.

Why don't you PM me your email and I will send a note to put you in touch with the owner directly...and you can take it from there...

These guys race extensively at COTA, my guess is that they understand and will be able to offer some kind of service to you...

I may have to follow you for a session or two to learn the line.

Does Chin & MVP go out to the other local TX tracks in Feb or March?

I'm in the yellow run group as well.

Cresson is near Dallas not as close to COTA as TWS and not the same track experience either. A TWS - COTA back to back is easy only 100 miles from track to track. IMO, from a driving perspective TWS is more fun than COTA

Chin is at COTA two weekends after the F1 race. I'll be there as with Chin as well.
