Great race, did any of our friends across the pond get to go?
I don't know what they're feeding Henzler on at the moment but he should patent it. ;D The tyres (sorry, tires) appear to be bang on too.

Hey Deb, hope your feeling better. Didn't go, watched the highlights on TV, looked a better show than the train wreck of a Indycar race the next day on the same circuit.

You mean their attempted demolition derby between the racing cars and the safety truck? Idiots.

Baltimore is only a 40 minute drive from me so of course I went. Great weekend. I grew up going to baseball games here and they did a fantastic job. Camden yards is one of the county's best ball parks (not the best team) and they incorporated part of it into the pit complex. too cool. they have a 5 year contract and I hope they keep going. it was a big success. 45,000 turnout for the ALMS race and 75,000 for the indy race
ALMS was on saturday and it was obviously the better day to go.

Hi Good duck,
Nice pictures. Thanks for sharing. That catch fencing looks exactly the same as the Toronto Indy. i wonder if they borrowed it?

thanks, phil. thats not too unlikely i guess.
one thing i forgot to mention: i wonder if they could have a night race next year or some time in the future. that would be a huge crowd pleaser and great on tv.
