It's just like Indy a few years ago. A room at the downtown Ramada Inn was $125 the Thursday nite before the race. Fri, Sat, and Sun nights were $330 a night!


I wonder if there's an option to camp at the track...otherwise I'll have to beg some friends in Austin to crash on their couch.

The hotel I stayed in in Montreal can be had for as little as 129 bucks a night during parts of the year, but during F1 it was 800!!!

Moving to the 'Ford Motorsport' (Racing) section, but I will leave a link for a day . . .

Looks like it worked. I got an email today notifying me the Austin City Council had approved the project to proceed.
