Yeeeeha! Things ran smoothly and all done by 4 pm?!! Lots of fun, lots of photos, lots of great people. Can't wait til next one. Thanks to all who volunteered, EVEN people who didn't drive but just came to work (Greg Philips, Ted Witte, Gail (the better half of Mr. Behun) and Steven Weiler.)

As promised, here is the extreme 180 view camera angle video clip. The camera is pointed to a parabolic type mirror so the video is a mirror image. Need to use a more stable mount next time- As the camera is quite sensitive to movement. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5-9qlOUxtg


The track sure looks different in a mirror image. very cool camera angle. Thanks for sharing that.

Thanks to everyone on the AX team for a really terrific day yesterday. The track layout had such a great feel and was so much fun to drive. I especially loved the large format drawing by the trailer--that should be a T-shirt!

For all you bike enthusiasts , here is a cool photo I took of Lance yesterday. We rode up Palomar and watched the main climb then hurried back down the mountain to Cole grade to watch the final climb of the day. Those guys are amazing.  :bowdown:
