They say everything is bigger in Texas, and Mineral Wells is the proof. Texas Region’s 20+ acres of asphalt has hosted single course events that have crossed the minute and a half threshold and flirted with the upper limits of approved Solo speeds. Local STS driver, Jerrett Jan has been tagged to design a pair of courses for year’s Pro, bringing a new perspective and ideas to a proven site. Throw in a Welcome Party with Texas Region supplied beverages and a Saturday night party from the guys at Vorshlag featuring a catered Texas Barbecue dinner and you have all the makings of a fantastic ProSolo. If you are looking for classic Texas fare, check out Baker’s Ribs and for a quick bite you can’t go wrong at WhatABurger, conveniently located across the street from the event hotel.
