Ask for the Air Race Rate!


Rooms start around $80.  See Who's In for a list of entered racers and if you're coming in from out of town you can maybe team up with someone and save a few $$ (choose someone in your class so you can whisper how you're going to trounce them in the race while they sleep - psychological warfare, but all's fair in love and racing!).
Out of town RVers be sure and check the "RV Hotel" list for the area before you pay good gas money for a room!

You may contact me (Mike Thompson) at 512-663-2184.

Race Rules



A word about the SARL membership requirement:

As stated all racers must be SARL members, a condition of the insurance policy.

We recognize, however, that some folks just want to come out for the day or maybe this is a first time race experience and you don't want to buy into the League (just yet). 

For this reason we have a "provisional membership" which will make you "member for the day".
The provisional membership will be $10.00 in addition to the race entry fee.

If you choose to use the provisional membership option, register for the race using the Non-SARL member link .  You will be charged at the race along with your race entry fee.
