ohhh yeah. last year I had to fork up ~$70 after using the toll road once. Their billing system is janky.

Well my dream draws near

and i am planning on leaving here midnight next Wed. hoping to arrive 5 or 6 ish Thur, i certainly dont want to be any later. As time is short and having never made this trip MapQuest is telling me a 20(hoping i can do it in 16) Hr drive, and saying turn at Dripping springs. Would it be quicker to just stay on 290 to the 35 then straight to Buda?

My company supplies the models that work the events there and pit crew girls (photo is from the COTA two weeks ago in Austin and one of our girls).

If it were me, I'd stay on the 290 until you get to the 35. What this did not used to be the case here, the traffic in Austin and surrounding is HORRIBLE these days and it seems to take the highway department a minimum of 10 years to do any construction projects, so be prepared if you are in any rush hour times.

The COTA is fun. Enjoy!
