    Ah well I kept out of this, I got my fingers burnt with the last USA toaster farce.

    So I agree with this.

    Good point looking at what should be happening and quite obviously isn't.

    Indeed.


    Still why is nobody else talking about this except us?

    What will be won't be in Austin. What won't be will be in Austin.

    LOL, the intent was 'play by themselves', but I guess people read into things they want. Come on, we're not in third grade here.

    Quite obvious, unfortunately. However, they can still turn that around, but if they haven't closed that gap by the end of summer, I'd seriously doubt a 2012 F1 race. We'll see.

    The Austin US GP was announced May 2010... In the year since they have managed to do little more than put up a sign. (OK, they did deliver 2 port-o-pots to the site)

    Sure it can theoretically turn around, but any serious review of the progress to date confirms this effort has already proven it does not have the means to complete the project.

    Just think, they'd be 95% done if F1 switched to MX bikes.

    Actually, if they do host a unicorn race, and the gambling legislation passes allowing casinos at horse tracks, it just might work......;)

    Racing mythical animals reminds me of Big Julie's dice. They were blank but he remembered where the spots were. ;)
