Love, Austin

Heh. Shouldn't you send your car back to Precision Chassis in protest of Arizona HB 170? The Austin City Council would approve

I'm convinced Tilke has pictures of Bernie with a goat.

It would be great to see some elevation. Any clues if it is on the North side or South side of town?

Is it just me, or does this whole thing just seem like the USF1 of tracks/venues?

If it happens great, if it doesn't I won't be surprised.

The article says along Texas 130. There's a LOT of land in between Farm to Market Rd 812 and Pearce Lane. And on up near Garfield. Also in between Manor and Garfield. I see plenty prime sites on Google Earth.

hmm...there's a Hyatt Resort about 15 miles east of the airport on 71, with a golf course, hills with a couple hundred feet of elevation change, the colorado river, and about 1600 acres of farm land next to it all. hmm.
