    That looks like typical UT game crew!

    Indianapolis did some weird ones too, they look like a Mylar version of Wonder Woman.

    LOL.

    What a fantastic track. I loved the nuances. Congrats to COTA.

    And the Trophies... I loved them. Different but substantial.

    Well done gentleman.

    Fabulously organized, I never waited in line more that 2 mins for anything (shuttle parking at Airport, tickets etc...) Only negative was the lack of good coffee in the morning :)

    Just got back to the rental unit. First let me say at Austin is a fantastic track, the facilities are top notch, and every single worker there was happy to be there and happy to help. I took my wife and father in law, and we all had a great time. We sat in the straight between 18 and 19 on the grass in the GA area. We were in our car at the Expo center shuttle parking less than 1.5 hrs after the race ended. I know Bernie must be more tha thrilled with the show too. My wife went crazy as she is a Hammy fan. I pull for the Brow so I was pretty pleased too. I took pics, but there were no real good GA areas to take pics without a fence getting in the way, so I was shooting between the poles. I'll see how they look when I fly home tomorrow.
