Having attended the first four USGP at the Circuit of the Americas I saw first hand the prices jump up. The track is out in the middle of nowhere and figuring out which county road to head down for parking was a total afternoon. We did scout it out a few days in advance. Long story short, we found a family who owned a field and parking was fifty bucks. Today that same field is three hundred dollars TO PARK.
Last time I was there, a baseball hat was over fifty bucks. I do not drink beer but my friends do and I think the beer was selling for seventeen dollars for 16oz.
IT WAS INSANE.
we quit going, they priced us out of the event. Circuit of the America's is a really, really nice track. Walking around that place is for young people.
