Houston, damn, that is a bit of a hull.

Looks like a pretty fast track thought.

I don't quite understandthe "Texas' most historic racetrack" statement if the track is brand new :-(

The track to my understanding was an old blimp base from WWII and was used to defend the Gulf Coast. Then after the military had no use for it was sold then converted into a race track until around 1998.
