The track layout is great. The run up to the first turn is a cool feature. I cant wait to see 20+ f1 cars racing up that hill on lap one!!!!!

Looks very cool.

Would be even cooler with a tunnel, one step cooler again if the tunnel exited below a grandstand!

... a tunnel with the track on the roof only. All these years, with the whole 'an F1 car generates enough downforce that it could drive upside down.' thing. This is Texas. Put up or shut up.

And a loop-di-loop.

long straights and sharp slow corners, one triple apex corner seems like it is just more of the same and nothing too out there..... AT LEAST it has elevation change which is rare these days but I reckon it would work better in reverse But in all honesty not as bad as I thought it could end up like

I can't wait to run this track, hopefully by then I'll have my GT3. Down for any TS meets, can do a lake party after practice.

Right, unlike those sophisticated Europeans who have such longer attention spans.

I just hope it gets built and operates successfully. Otherwise the good taxpayers in TX are going to foot part of the bill.
