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.

some pics:























here is a nice view of camden yards:

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.
