Boilermaker1 is a splendid one to behold

Just back from US Grand Prix.... 140 pics + Video!

What a day... I've been up since 4:45 this moring to go to the race and it's been a blast. This was my 3rd time (out of 3 USGP's), and its always fun. If you've never heard Formula 1 in person, its just incredible. They scream and shake the ground as they pass. So here's my whole day...
Ferrari Challenge Garage Area - F360's getting cleaned and prepped for the race.
F-1 Morning Warmup- F-1 cars get 30 minutes in the morning for some final tuning.
Porsche Pirelli Supercup Race- GT3R's hit the track for 16 laps.
Ferrari Challenge Race- F360's take a 13 lap run at the 2.606 mile track
F-1 Formation Laps - F-1 drivers get one final run before the lights go off.
The 3rd United States Grand Prix at Indianapolis- 73 Laps, 20 cars, 220 mph, and 18000 RPM

Powered By Honda - If it has a Honda engine in it, you'll find it here. hmm... I wonder when VTEC kicks in?
The links go to indexes, you then can click open as many pics as you want.
The pic of the day.... I love this. Thanks go out to the guy who parked the 7th gen in front of the Ferrari Challenge Garage. A Civic among Ferraris

They are all 1024x768 jpegs, you're welcome to use any of them for wallpapers if you'd like.
Honda made a strong showing.... Villeneuve finished in the points with a 6th Place finish in a BAR, and Fisichella finished 7th for Jordan, Sato for Jordan finished 11th, and Panis was 12th for BAR. 16 cars finished the race out of the 20 that started.
Oh.... and I want the safety car; A CL55 AMG

EDIT: All photos are now up for viewing... Enjoy
BTW, the camera is a Sony DSC-P50, 2.1 MegaPixel camera.
