In before Grape comes back in to tell us how it's definitely not happening.

Not that it's definitely happening, but it's looking good. ALMS just joined the ranks of 2013 race series coming to Austin as well.

I need this to happen. Were hoping to compete in and win the redbull soapbox race to get free tickets, travel, and rooms!!

It's all about whether construction finishes now, which is further than I think he would have ever admitted thinking it would go; construction looks to be moving along fine, but it still seems like it's going to be cutting it closeish.

Construction at Circuit of The Americas moves closer to completion as the placement of asphalt continues around the track and the first layer of surface from Turns 1 – 5 and Turns 18 – 20 is applied. The Access Tunnel that leads to the Paddock Area is finished and paved. The Medical Center is almost finished with only work on the ceiling and windows to go.

Meanwhile, progress at the Pit Building is well under way; window installation and painting has started and should be completed soon.

In the coming weeks, paving will continue between Turns 5 and 10 while the Main Grandstand is completed.

if you did the $100 deposit you should have gotten an email saying to apply your $100 towards presale. has a single use code in the email and place to pick your seat is broken down to 1 seat (-$100) where you enter that code.

if you read FIA rules and regulations you will know right quick, that is not the pavement that will be raced on. FIA requires a seamless surface, of which it takes a special machine, which both that exist in the world are not in the United States at the moment....

Yup! Promoter is gambling a bit unless they got a waiver from bernie. I was told the specified asphalt could not be bought in the states.....good thing is the av8 supercar series will run on anything! That is what i am saving my ticket dollars for!
