F1 demonstration run on Austin city street

The Red Bull racing team has applied for a permit to run a F1 car on Congress ave. in Austin,tx. to make a promotional video for the new F1 track under construction here in Austin. They are suppost to shut Congress ave. down this saturday morning between 15th and MLK from 0700 to 1200 hrs.The permit is still pending but i bet they get it. Seems like this would be fun to watch and who knows you might get in the video...

I hope you get to see more than we did when they did that in London. It'll be intersting to see how much interest this generates.

This is what it looked like in London:
