The gaps are earlier than people expect, and they are wide enough for a full session plus the drive. | Day | On track | Your window | What fits | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Thursday Oct 22 | Grand Prix View, no competitive sessions | All day | Rapid Fire, 3 to 4 hours. The easiest day of the weekend to book | | Friday Oct 23 | Practice sessions | Morning, before the drive to COTA | Bullets & Bros, 2 hours, or the Full Auto Crash Course, about an hour | | Saturday Oct 24 | Qualifying | Early morning | Full Auto Crash Course, about an hour, back on the road before the COTA queue builds | | Sunday Oct 25 | Race | Not recommended | Race-day traffic makes the round trip unpredictable. Book Thursday or Friday instead | Plan roughly 65 to 75 minutes each way between COTA and the range, and add more on Saturday and Sunday. If your crew is staying downtown rather than near the circuit, it is about 55 minutes each way. Booking a group of five or more on a race weekend means booking early. Thursday and Friday slots go first. Times are confirmed when you book. Call (512) 815-9101 or request a quote and we will tell you what is open on your date. ## F1 Weekend Shooting Experience FAQ ### How far is the range from Circuit of The Americas?
