Race fans can take the shuttle to Texas Motor Speedway

Texas Motor Speedway logoShuttle service will again be offered at Texas Motor Speedway during the Nov. 1-2 race weekend.  Officials at the Fort Worth Transportation Authority learned a month ago that their Victory Lane Express shuttle service might not be allowed because of a new federal rule restricting the use of public buses for private events. But T officials have since learned that their shuttles are exempt from the rule, spokeswoman Joan Hunter said. Speedway officials are elated. "I wish more fans would use it. They haven’t come close to reaching their limit," general manager Eddie Gossage said. "Their ability to handle the crowd is great. It’s cheap. It’s the fastest way in and out, and it’s safe."

How it works - For $10 roundtrip, passengers may board buses at a temporary park-and-ride at Tarrant County College Northwest Campus, 4801 Marine Creek Parkway. Police working crowd control at the speedway give buses priority access in and out.  For information call the T at (817) 215-8600 or visit www.the-t.com or www.texasmotorspeedway.com.  (From Star-Telegram.com)
