Austin, Texas??

Is this gonna work, a state of the art F1 level racetrack in Austin Texas? Where you can get a great steak, but caviar may be hard to find. I don't remember seeing how this 10 year deal is going to get financed...

Already a fair bit of discussion about this in this thread of which the title no longer is relevant.

I think that is what will set Austin apart from the rest of the tracks. If there is an exciting track built by Tilke (don't laugh it can happen), then Americans can see a good display of F1 cars. They'll come back for more and since American folk are more casual, then Austin is the perfect venue.

None of that fancy crap! Grade A steak and RARE.

Back in my food service days I once witnessed a customer eat an uncooked T-Bone.--straight from the meat case and onto his plate. However, before he would eat it he had to baste it with a lot of melted butter.

This was in Dallas.

I prefer mine to be walked over the coals briefly.
Nothing wrong with eating raw beef!
Carne Cruda or Carne all'Albese, and Carpaccio are to die for!

Have you even been to Austin?

It is by far, a much more sophisticated city than the backwater 'burg the last USPG was held at.

When it stops going moo it is cooked.
Back in prehistoric times (early 1970's) in Edmonton Oliver's advertised anyone who could eat a 74 oz. (4 lb.) steak dinner ate for free. It was basically 4 complete 16 oz steak dinners. The steak, a salad, potato and vegatables times 4. I do not think buns were included.
Edmonton was a cattle town, oil rigger town, Alaska highway town and lumberjack town. Actually a fair sized city but still sort of frontier.
They only got beaten about once every two years and it was always a lumberjack. It was the vegs and potato that stopped most people.
