I saw that from another source. It is on the F1 site too, so it seems confirmed. I didn't check the AW site to see the comments, but I doubt much has changed. There used to be a lot of pinheaded comments.

Article in the San Antonio paper today says the venue will be a new facility to be built within 10 miles of Bergstrom (Austin) Airport. The race date is not specified, but it had better not be in the summer ... hopefully before June or after September.

Well Glenn! Looks like me Sanjay and Will Barrett will be joining you for that race. Lived in Austin 10 years before moving to Houston. I must admit I'm suprised that they chose Austin. It's a fairly small city full of pot smoking hippies from UT. And there are not many hills out around burgstrum. But just west of Austin tons of hills. It would be pretty cool seeing F1 cars flying up I35 at 230mph.

Looks like the track will be available for general use too. And it's only 50 miles from the Breitung homestead.
