Finally made it down to Porter Tx which is just north of Houston. Gulf Coast Raceway is there and man what a nice facility. There is a world class on-road and the newly created off-road tracks. Fully stocked hobby shop, snack bar you name it and its there. The off-road track is under a large roof open on 3 sides. Large indoor pit area and plenty of pit space around the outside as well. The 2nd floor of the off-road side isn't finished yet but I went up to check out the view from the air conditioned balcony. Pretty cool I bet those seats will be taken up quickly for a big race. I shot 6 hours of tape and I have to do some maintenance on my disks to get that much on the computer so I cut some quick clips out and make a short teaser video of the track.

I'll be putting out some more during the week as I wade through all this tape. If you are ever down Houston way be sure and check out the tracks. They are worth the visit.

There used to be two off-road tracks within a mile of each other where this track is in Porter. One of them is closed now. I'm not sure about other tracks in Houston as I live west of Austin and only get down there once in awhile. Best bet is to go to the 2coolfishing.com forum and post in the r/c section. The track's website is http://www.mikes-hobbyshop.com/OffRoadTrack.html They have a killer on-road track as well but I think its being resealed and covered right now.

Oh man I hate backing up a disk. Takes forever and I always end up nuking something I didn't want too But I have 6 hours of tape from Gulf Coast and only an hour worth of disk left before I cleaned it up. Now I'll be changing tapes once an hour until its all into the computer. Then I can get started. Some excellent shots on the video I've seen so far. Now that I have my video equipment bought its time to upgrade the old computer. SATA drives and dualcore for sure. Wish Avid would run on AMD hardware. It would be a lot cheaper to get it put together. Oh well everything thats fun costs money Check back in a day or so I'll have some more video from this awesome facility posted up.
