THAT would be kick ass too.

Didn't they add Salt Lake City to the circuit?

I'm not into NASCAR at all; mabye watch Daytona etc, but that's it.

I'll admit though, in person it was way cool. Doubt I'd spend money on tickets, but it was cool. sounded great.
This is my 3rd year here and the first year I've went to GP. Because I got free tickets. :shrug:

Not really into racing, but went to the first Baltimore IRL event and now go every year. Definitely an in person event for me.

No idea on Salt Lake City. They're in Austin the April 19-21.

I don't follow the bikes like I used to. I love to watch the races but I don't have the time to keep up with the details like I do with F1.

Aussie V8 super cars are coming to Austin too. I really wish I could make that, but life is in the way this year.

All racing is different in person. The camera work on racing is good and steady so unless you've seen them live it's hard to get an appreciation for how fast they are moving. Also, the smells and sounds are a big part of the feeling you get from watching live. You don't get that with watching it on TV.

I ****ing loathe what NASCAR has become but I love to attend races at Texas Motor Speedway.

BTW, we are suppose to get some rain off and on all day tomorrow. Those Indy cars aren't effected by the rain, correct? The 100K fans might not like the rain though.
They don't normally run in the rain on oval's but on street courses I think they still do.

I know Forumla 1 does.

Formula 1 is in Austin too.

I missed it last year because I didn't make plans but plan on doing it this year.

In November I think.

One think nobody mentioned is the talent Indy and Formula 1 racing attracts.

It's not like the NASCAR redneck hillbilly girls.

The girls Indy and Formula 1 attracts is high quality 1st class primo pussy.

There's a lot of money on those circuits and of course it attracts beautiful women.

yep. rain tires.

I also love the fact that everyone has to race on two sets of tires. reds and blacks I believe.

****-ton more interesting in NASCAR.

Now the Formula 1 race is there
Austin City Limits
Salt Lick BBQ

Tons of live music

All kinds of stuff.

Plus it's a big college town so lots of chicks running around.
