Winding Road

WindingRoadRacing.com is an Austin, Texas based race gear and race style store. Our goal is to supply "what racers need to go faster." While we sell primarily through our website, race gear can be a daunting purchase for some buyers, especially new racers. We pride ourselves on personal service by providing in store support for local shoppers and live chat/toll-free phone support for all other customers to help ensure they are satisfied with their purchases.

We carry the gear racers need at the track (helmets, race suits, gloves, shoes, action cameras, trailer accessories and much more) as well as lifestyle items (CT Scuderia watches, apparel, books, cameras, etc.). Some manufacturers we carry: MOMO, Alpinestars, OMP, Bell Racing, Stilo and Arai.

Fuel

There will be fuel at COTA.

  2. VP Fuel will sell race gas at the same location. VP will have 101 unleaded, 109 unleaded, 110 leaded and C12 leaded. If you want a fuel other than one of the four listed, please email Brad at vphq@vpracingfuels.com.

In addition, participants may bring their own fuel in 5 gallon containers (COTA prohibits the refueling of cars inside the garages).

Also, there is a Exxon gas station just to the east of the main entrance to COTA on Highway 81.

VP Fuels' sales of race fuel will be on a cash-only basis. VP Fuels will not accept credit cards. There is an ATM machine on-site at COTA, located in the lobby of the Media Center Building. However, because race fuel sales will be made on a cash-only basis we advise that you plan accordingly.

VP Fuels plans to arrive at COTA on the load-in day. In order to avoid a "rush" on Friday morning, we strongly recommend that you purchase race fuel on Thursday afternoon. No fuel will be available from VP on Sunday.

Disposal and Recycling

COTA has trash and recycling recepticle bins at various locations in the paddocks and collection facilities for used fluids and waste materials. Participants are required to make use of these for all waste materials. Spills of damage causing fluids such as oils, hydraulic and brake fluid and gasoline etc. may occur. All spills must be treated immediately. Please contact one of our PCA Yellow-Shirted Paddock Marshals immediately in the event of a spill.
