OK. I would expect the big delay will be getting from the parking lots onto the 2 lane FM812(?). Once on to 812,... likely will be tolerable for a mile.
they're making a road that spans the length of the property from north to south. Hopefully they'll come up with a plan to get people in off 812 on the south, and elroy road on the north. I wouldn't be suprised if it is quicker to stay in a hotel in Buda or San Marcos, and just head up 35 to the toll road, and bypass austin all together on race day
LOL. Would that be at the junkyard or at the machine shop or the trailer park or the quickie mart? Cause that's all that exists in the range you describe.
If I go (work may not allow it) I will either be taking barnyard up on his offer or staying at a friends house on the west side of town.
nothing wrong with any off those if it gets you away from the worst congestion. I'm sure there will be a property owner offering parking for $$$. LOL back at ya.

enter "elroy, texas" into google maps. you will see a pond between FM812 and elroy rd to the north. that's it. (east of 130)
Got it. It doesn't seem that far from Austin. It's a lot easier now to visualize where else to look for a hotel. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Check this map link, NASCAR races twice a year here and has forever. It's just a little over a mile to the closest Interstate. Two lane roads in all directions, always has been, always will be. Of cousre it's a traffic jam. Fans still show!! They somehow deal with it! http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=41.0626945431211~-75.51594543457032&lvl=13&dir=0&sty=h&where1=Pocono%20International%20Raceway%2C%20PA&form=LMLTCC
Remember them well!..... You just deal with it one way or another. No big deal. I also assume you remember Scratchers Lane into Brands? - Basically, *single* lane - I remember a shiny new Ferrari transporter getting all scratched up (by trees) going in one time - They were not happy Italians! Cheers, Ian
You missed my post, on B&B in New Bransfels????? Camping along the river in Bastrop will also be prime....I'm working on the helicopters now.....probably use PHIs.....
They come in over a few days, set up the RV, cornhole game, still, and barbie, then party on, yeehaw! Michigan back in the day was a nightmare, in and out even for the Indycars. Ian, dear old Scratchers Lane, thanks for reminding me!
1 in Giants Stadium as well. Back to the serious issue,... has there been any update on the man's condition? Hoping for the best...
