    MotoGP Austin

    I know a few NESR's will be at the MotoGP in Austin. Thinking it might be fun to get together Fri or Sat night for dinner and whatever downtown.

    Any interest...?

    I'm working in Dallas the following week and think I'll go to Austin first to see the races. Definitely interested in meeting NESRians in meeting for dinner. BBQ, I hope.

    Yo...you're the local dude! Can you make suggestions for a time and place for interested partys? Dinner Friday night maybe and some music after? (I'd really like to see the bats...been on my list for a long time!)

    I'll be there, but my brother lives in Austin and I rarely get to hang with him, so I'm not sure I'll be able to join.

    It looks like the restrict you to one section of General Admission. Is that right? I saw tickets for GA3, GA4, and GA5. But the map doesn't say where they are. Do you know how to pick out a section?

    Hmmm... I could be wrong, but I believe that it doesn't matter which GA number you have. I *believe* all GA tickets grant you the same access to the handful of GA areas.
    If so the big question becomes where to watch from....

    Re: MotoGP Austin

    I spoke with someone at the track. (So did Hannah) It is our understanding is that GA is anywhere where GA is listed. Not restricted to one GA area.

    BTW - has anyone received their actual tickets yet?

    Waited too long for booking a flight. Flights out Sunday night or Monday are few and pricey.
