Re: Easy Houston Raceway Park Access

I heard they were working on that section of the Grand Parkway. I really didn't think it would be ready in time. This should be a great thing to alleviate the traffic issues!

Re: Easy Houston Raceway Park Access

Just a little FYI.. The best place to park is in the parking lot directly across from the pits by the Mobile home park. They charge $5 and is a easy in and out. I never have to wait or sit in traffic in the trying to get out. And you can walk right across the street and directly into the pits.

Not bad...one of those spots will cost $20 bucks a day at Indy.

"...HRP's expansive resurfaced parking lots."

They must have been real busy in the last 2 weeks.

Easy access to.... I see easy access to 525, but the backup on 525 will still be the same, it's still a two lane road.

Did anybody notice the author of that article for Comp Plus? I understand he's doing a fair amount of writing for Autoweek too.
