The Mecca of Motorsports Some pics of the HONDA hospitality tent, the Berlina S2k drew quite a crowd... Hey I own both of these!
Some pics of the race, some of the loony Ferrari F1 Fans. The Columbians were absolutely loony for Juan Montoya. Jenson Button in the BAR Honda actually led the race 14 laps until his Honda Blew up

S2K & nice ricer, after the race.
Ricer Mercedes
Some pics of the Indy Museum

If you've never been to a F-1 race I highly recommend it. I plan on going next year, since the race date is changed from late Sept. to June 20, 2004, I'll be able to make the Dragon next year!

Rotors on the factory riced Accord rusting before your eyes! CF all over & it had a F-1 paddle type shifter.

Very festive International atmosphere

Pre-Race activities - Racing of the Segways

No Ferrari Challenge this year, Porsche SuperCup..Travis Pastrana(the MX Racer) was a guest driver, I think he finished near last.

Pre-Race activities? What activities? I was watching the umbrella girls!

Great pics Richard. Thanks for sharing.

Let's do lunch soon and we'll trade racing stories.

Nice pics...thanks for posting.
Strange about the Honda hospitality tent...you'd think they'd want to display an '04 S2K.
