Anyone going to Austin for the Austrailian V8 Supercars next weekend?

[racrguy]

Yes it can

What's so bad about it?

[MattB]

Did Alec sell his miata after his pops got pissed about NASA not bending the rules for being late to grid?

At Tws? That was my fault! Haha.

[MattB]

Yes it can

This guy knows!

I knew he was a spoiled little shit but seriously?! What a brat. I would love to know what his dad does to pay for all the racing that the kid does so I can regret a few more life decisions.

As for paddock access, I hear it will be open most all weekend and there is a 12:00 to 12:30 access to the pits on both Saturday and sunday. Other areas you are free to roam all weekend if you have a PSL ticket.


Working for a race team sucks balls. You are constantly having to answer to the driver/crew chief regardless of what you feel like doing at that moment. You are also at the bottom of the blame chain. It isn't even that glamorous after the race even with a win. You have to pack up all the support gear and keep on working while the driver gets to party. It ain't all it's cracked up to be at the pro level for sure.

Really wish I could go.

That's the story I heard, he was late to grid, decided to jump in front of all the cars on the warmup lap to regain his grid position, they DQ'd him, daddy got pissed and was pushing his finger into the chest of a NASA official, they wouldn't budge, so he put a for sale sign on the car, fun stuff!

That's not what happened. I'll post the story later, it was 99.9% my fault if you want to know the truth.

[txsr20de]

I'll be there, I wasn't able to make it for the USGP, so I am not going to miss this.

[Mach1]

Anyone out there dumping cheap tickets for this? I may have to figure out how to make it down there.

Coool, hopefully they'll let me back there. As for the race team part, i hear it sucks as well, one of employees in the company did trackside IT for the Virgin team, he said it was a brutal routine.
