Or maybe they can host "An Olympic activity, including a Junior or Senior activity, training program or feeder program sanctioned by the U.S. Olympic Committee’s Community Olympic Development Program", or "A national political convention of the Republican National Committee or the Democratic National Committee" or some random things like that.

Yep...or maybe they could just dig up the front straight, turn it into an Olympic pool & have the next Swimming & Diving World Championships or Olympic Quals. It could have ramps at each end and be filled with Bull Sharks to add excitement to an otherwise blah F1 GP. They could put the diving pit out by the tower & jump from it. Too bad UT doesn't already have a great natatorium and aren't looking into building a new one. Oh...wait.
I remember when I heard about them telling people on tours that they were thinking about a World Cup Soccer Stadium out there. LOL. Seriously? After all the troubles they've had getting this thing close enough to complete to have a race? Too bad we can't we already see one of the biggest, best football stadiums in the country from the east side of the track. Oh...wait.
Oh, but they're gonna spend millions to build a "World Cup" soccer venue that holds less than 10K people. OK. Sweet!



Makes perfect sense! And boxing & Davis Cup Tennis, too. Too bad we don't have a place in Austin suitable for those events! Oh...wait.
Maybe they should put a giant bubble over turn 1 and build the world's largest artificial ski slope. We don't have one of those yet.
How 'bout if they first just try to do racing well?
