Austin F1 Race November 2012

All,

FYI, I just looked into hotel rates for the Austin F1 in November, they have already started gouging. Holiday Inn's are charging between $500 and $1000 per night, I guess I'll be camping.

I only paid about











































I only paid about $200/night (3 night min) for a nice B & B in Montreal last year for the Canadian GP. About 5 minute walk to the central metro station and then one stop to the track. I parked the car when I got their and never had to use it.

I'll go back to Canada in a heartbeat but no way am I spending that kind of money for Austin.
