MAP of the mineral ring.. (Thanks PCA!)
There are two routes from the DFW Metroplex...
1) Take I20 West to Exit 414 (Hwy 180)
- From the point you exit from I20 onto Hwy 180
the remainder of the trip takes about 30 minutes..
- Also note that there are often cops that have
speed traps on this route so if you go this route watch your speed on
180.
- Take Hwy 180 thru the city of Weatherford,
continuing on past Cool and into Mineral Wells.
- After you pass Subway on the left, you will
come to a 3 way stoplight that is FM 1195. Turn south (L) at the
stoplight for FM 1195 to get to the airport.
- The next four way stop sign is FM 1821. There
is a brick sign for Mineral Wells Airport on the SE corner. There is a
water tower to the left..Turn Left.
2) The route I favor is to stay on I20 to
exit 394 ( CR 113)
- Take 113 N into Milsap... and after the
railroad tracks turn left onto FM3028.
- Take 3028 to FM1195 and turn right to go NB on
1195
- Go NB on 1195 until you come to a stop sign and
see the brick Mineral Wells airport sign on the SE corner and a water
tower on your right. This is FM1821. Turn Right.
- Once onto 1821 turn right at the first fork
(Harvey Road) go left at the next fork, (Airport Road) and then take
the left fork at the next road... you will pass a hangar and go onto
the edge of the autocross tarmac...
PLEASE stay to the right as you enter and be aware
of the pointer cones that will prevent you from driving onto the
course.... Find a spot to park along the fence in the paddock..... The
trip is 80 miles one way from Vista Ridge Mall (I-35 and I-121 in
Lewisville) and takes about 75 minutes.
- I-75 N to Exit #65 ( Sign says Grayson County
Airport/Grayson
- Community College/FM691)
- Turn L (West) at end of ramp... go 4.0 miles
- Turn Right (North) on FM 1417 and travel 1.4
miles
- Turn L (West) on Refuge travel 1.0 miles, cross
RR tracks, continue straight .9 miles
- Turn L (South) on Hardenburg Lane, travel .7
miles
- Turn L into the compound
- There is a building and sign at the entrance
gate located at at 3014 Hardenburg lane....
- Go past the building on the right and you will
see everyone.
- Cooler with drinks and or snack/lunch
- Chairs if you wish
- Hat and/or umbrella for protection from sun or
rain
- Sunscreen
- Wear multiple layers of clothing
- Helmet
The temperature usually feels 10 degrees hotter or
colder (whichever is worse) than the metroplex.... The wind is also a
factor as there is a lot of open space and very little in the way of
shelter.
If you wish to go out for lunch, there is a
Subway, McDonald's and a few other restaurants about 10 minutes from
the airport... There is usually one or two "port o let's" as facilities
or you can drive to the aforementioned restaurants.
See you there!
