You've maybe heard of LA? Still seems to make more sense than any others, as well as Vegas. Austin just seems like a headache for most fans to travel to. Watkins Glen is a great track, but has lousy spectator facilities and isn't exactly convenient from the city. If nothing else, hopefully the Austin track is accessible by their light rail.
