S197 event location vote

Texas isn't a small state either. Depending on where some of these Texas people are coming from. It could take them 7-10 hours of driving time as well. I know that there will be people driving from all over, 12-20 hours, but Dallas, Ennis or even Houston isn't in everyone's back yard.

I don't say this to sound like an ass, and i also know what Paul means. It shouldn't come down to just 1 track in your home state. I only mentioned Dallas and Ennis as an alternative to the choices that are in the poll.

I don't care where it is really. I just want it to happen so i can take a week off from work and party. My vote is still for BG. Its a nice town, racer friendly and Nashville is only about an hour away.

Yeah I should clarify--if its in Texas, it needs to be in eastern Texas, as yes you are correct, Texas is big--its as wide as Arizona and New Mexico combined.

Jarrod@latemodelresto · Nov 15, 2011

Its only about 850 miles wide...lmao

If it was to happen in Dallas, i cant see Dallas being to much more of a drive than BG for some people. Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and especially the Oklahoma people should have a fairly simple drive.

Ennis is outside of Dallas to the east about 60 miles, right?

Not even that far, about 30 miles. 40 at the most.

You have Texas Motorplex (Ennis), then you have Dallas raceway (Crandall) within rock throwing distance of each other.

I voted for BG, but will also add Ennis and Dallas Raceway. There are hotels in the area. Ennis is a huge complex. Not far from the DFW area, plenty of things to do if family comes with you.

This is probably not needed, but just in case it came down to this.

I'd go to either of these. Anything in Texas and count me in :boobies:

2014_GT · Nov 15, 2011

I vote for Ennis, too. And, it's about six hours for me as well though it's still in my state.

I want to drag my sled out to have some fun. I havn't been to BG in a few years, wicked track imo.

Milan in Michigan, accomodations not an issue.

Agreed, you can drive 12 hours and still be in TX. I vote other: Dallas or Ennis.

Its an easy drive to make. I left Waco at 5 am and was in BG around 10 pm the same night. I dont usually stop for anything other than gas though.

Wicked GT · Nov 17, 2011

Shouldn't that be a half a day drive?
