Huzzah! Somebody has the huevos to build a 21st century track in N.A. (No offence Canada), (every offence Mexico).

No stranger to Austin, I can imagine the local "Keep Austin Wierd" crowd is going ballistic. Good for them. Wait untill they can rent their houses for $20K/Month to some of their Aussie Sister City (Adelaide? I forget.) F1 fanatics.

And remember: NASCAR's become BnOaRsIcNaGr. Really, Really Boring.
