    Turn 19 is my favorite. You can see turn 1 across the track, see guys come down the back straight down into 19, and watch as the go through 20 onto the main drag.

    Tweet your questions or complaints to @circuitamericas and they will respond pretty quickly during major events like the F1 USGP.

    The hill at Turn 1 is the best spot, slopped hill, great views, big screen and good amenities. Bring sunscreen, a hat and wear comfortable shoes. Arrive early on race day for the best spot.

    The track offers a variety of microbrews, local food vendors, and appeals to the masses! I have a fantastic time every year!

    I work here every once in awhile. It's a good place and a good atmosphere. The other staff is helpful and nice and the events are fun even if I'm on the job.

    Excellent view from turn 9 bleachers. Trams from gate to gate are nearly impossible. Prepare to walk walk walk.

    They did an amazing job from start to finish on raceday. Volunteers were super friendly/informative. The shuttles kicked so much ass reducing the time to get in/out. They did need more food stands tho

    A muddy disaster event experience after the rain. Also, take extra time when leaving in a ride share. The lot reserved is out back with little room for traffic. It took us 2hrs to leave during F1

    The Paddock Club if you can get it, Turn 15 for Grandstand seats and Turn 11 for general admission are your best bets. However, there's really no bad spot at this amazing track.

    Never go anywhere here, except for the Biergarten. Near turn 6&7. Shade, good beer, and TVs for all the good angles.

    Great parking spot at 9016 Elroy Road! Closer that the lot in front the tracks and no crazy long walk or overpriced parking pass.

    About the only thing that will rival Texas football will be international racing. Formula One and Moto GP will make their home just outside of Austin in the small town of Elroy. Read more

    Pro tip: be seated when the race starts. Having to get up for people who show up late is lame.

    Lone Star Le Mans is great, not as packed as F1 but the racing is just as awesome!

    Take the shuttle. The rideshare pickup area is at least a 25 minute walk through unlit wilderness.

    Need for Speed? Austin's got you covered. F1 races are something to see live - so if you get a chance, pick up the checkered flag and head on over.
