I always wondered if they enforced this toll road.

Last year, I got a bill from my rental car company for $60 for tolls and administrative fees for 4 toll violations that were within the posted times. I called the Texas Toll Road Authority and they said they had no record of any agreement with Houston Raceway Park or Royal Purple Raceway.
I called the track and spoke with Seth Angel and he said they were working on getting it cleared up. Never heard back from him and wouldn't respond to any messages either. Almost everyone I talked to got dinged the same way, so buyer beware.

Dave, Take some of that Houston mud and cover your plates, hard for them to send you a ticket if they can`t read your plate. Tom

I've evidently been lucky. Never heard a thing. Maybe they can't read my trailer tag? I understood there was an agreement with the track. Only on it for a mile or so from I10, right?

I got a call in January 2014 stating I owed them money for the 1 mile trip from the track back to IH10, told them that NHRA had said it was free. Got nowhere, just paid the fee.
I guess you can add that to the "Biggest Lie List" right after #4, "I'll pay you Friday"!! Never again RJ |

but we were NOT THERE...remember..so shouldn't be hard to fix, then it wasn't me applies here too..case of mistaken identity....oh hang on I wasn't awake yet...my bad...part of the whole enhancement experience I'm sure, and the track fixed the" pristine" pit conditions we dealt with by the new drag racing only facilities that is set up for TOUGH MUDDER, and the RUNNING of the BULLS.....I see the BULL part....never mind

Ed if I remember correctly it was about $16.00 including a "Penalty" that was imposed by TxDOT for failure to send the fee in by the due date. I never got anything from TxDOT for anything, until I got my past due bill.
I would want something in writing from NHRA and TxDOT before I took a left out of the track or turned right off IH 10 E to the Toll way. Seems like the Government and Sanctioning Bodies are run by the same type of people. RJ |

This was set up by the track, not NHRA. Direct all your complaints to Seth Angel, for all the good that will do. Just another member of the Lucky Sperm Club.
