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

[MattB]

I'll be there. Curious if anyone else is going.

Wish I could, saw them in Perth back in 04..they were pretty bad ass.

[Slowhand]

I'm tied up, unfortunately.

Is World Challenge going to be racing there as well this weekend?

I'll be there for the World Challenge. COTA site mentioned only V8 Supercars. Weird...hope my tickets work.

[YALE]

Ugh...

Will be there with just about every other track knucklehead in NASA TX at Turn 15.

Yep! I'll be on the pit box & in the paddock with the #17 Boss 302R if anyone wants to come by and say hi. It's a double-header weekend, racing Saturday & Sunday.

Not sure. I've got a World Challenge hardcard for all-access but I don't know how the tickets are going to work. Typically the WC paddocks are open to the fans, but I know when we have been partnered with NASCAR, shit has been limited. Never been to COTA, and I've never seen the V8 supercars live, so I've got no idea. There isn't even a mention of WC or any other support races on the website. If you make it to the paddocks, we will probably be parked next to another Ford team(Capaldi), and we will be in a white toterhome with a white/red/blue Boss 302R #17. With the way the rules are(intake restrictor sizes), and given how fast the track is, I don't see a Boss winning it. Probably one of the Caymans or possibly Andy Lee in a Camaro, but hopefully we are the fastest Ford w/17 year-old driver Alec Udell. I'll be there Wednesday morning through the end of the weekend, and leaving straight from there after the race to take the car to Watson Engineering in Detroit for their magic touch. Come by and say hi if you can.

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