Bump this up, all booked and ready to go but looking for any suggestions on places to eat and see when over there
your heading to the race, right?
what city are you staying again?
Austin, yep to the race can't wait car rented and all
Tell me more about football ? I havent a clue how its played but been told to watch a match, i heard about the university all right. Any rec 's on places to go etc for food or bars?
Austinite is probably more helpful in this category.
I honestly don't know the town too well except for 4th and 6th street. There was another street that had some bars on it but I can't think of it.
If you get there tomorrow, the local bars should be packed full of loose college women watching the football game. Football isn't too hard to explain but you need to be watching it to understand. Simple game with a lot of fukkin rules!
I noticed about the ruled all right. I'll be there in 6 weeks so can't wait should be a good laugh. We'll be arriving on a Thursday so we def could be out for football lol. Friend whos going is mad into it so he can explain the rules
Lots of decent bars on 4th street. I would avoid 6th, it's always packed with kids. Been too long since I've been down there myself so there's a lot of new places I haven't been. But every few bars you'll have live music, good food and plenty to do. Not really sure what you're into so kind of hard recommendin specific places.

Thanks Aust, ahh we are all into anything really so 4th street it is, I'd rather stay away from the kid section all right. Food places is what I'm really looking for lol, have to sample texas proper bbq![]()
Thanks raging for the help, yeh not for a couple of weeks till I het there now so want to plan out what to do as its a flying visit lol
Thanks again raging. This race looks great and Austin seems like a great plave from the reviews, the last gp I was at wasItaly so this better live up to it lol
Ahh. BBQ would be the following:
- Iron Works (100 red river road) close to you.
- Rudy's BBQ (you'd have to drive north a bit for that one)
cedar door on 6th street for good live music and drinks.
Here's a guide to 6th... austin restaurant guide

Never been to Austinwould love to go and watch my longhorns play
Check out The Green Mesquite, good brisket & wings last time I was there a couple months ago. Franklin has good barbecue but there will be a line most likely, it's been featured on tv a few times so it's a popular joint.
Well, tomorrow is the travelling day, can 't wait yo go weather looks good and all sorted for the race wahey![]()
Arrived here good so far the track is great and people are nice
Good to hear you're having a good time in The Great State of Texas. There's many reasons why so many people move here from other states & countries.
