Yeah, I also found out that tiny l'il camera's also a webcam! It's like a disposable digital camera. $30 Canadian at Wal-Mart!

I also realized that I must've had sun-stroke since it was Peter Kox and Tomas Enge that was chasing down Mr. O'Connell.

The low fuel would explain the frenzy of activity at post-race tech for the Prodrive folks.

Too much sun too much fun.....

I can't believe your little camera took those pictures!!!

The fight for GTS class was so tight that when the 550 was at tech they did not have enough gas to get a fuel sample......it was SOOOOO close! They were pushing the car to the max!

I'll see everyone at Laguna Seca in a few weeks!

My power finally came back on 40 hours later.

I went to Mosport and it was too cool!

Nika, I talked to Jason Hill after you left, but because Jan Magnussen did such a masterful job of keeping it off the walls despite almost catching Johnny O'Connell's Corvette for fourth overall, he had no damaged panels to spare. That, and I don't think I could've outrun those guys even if I stole that hood. But here are some pics anyways:

Power just came on at my place, 29 hours after it went out! Can't make it on Sunday but would have loved to attend. Maybe next time.

It was a beautiful day at Mosport yesterday and I have to thank Nika for the wonderful pictures. Here I am with Mr. Bumblebee and My GTB.

I'll be there - look for the Yellow truck. I try not to bother teams on their race day - but I will certainly be around. Maybe in the media booth.

We still have no power at our place, but the important thing is that there is still racing at Mosport--oh, and that my family's okay, yadda yadda yadda...

I'm only going to be there Sunday unfortunately, you going to be hanging out with the Prodrive folks again?

I have power - luckliy it came on around 5am......will throw out only a few things from the fridge. Driving back I had a friend follow me since I was worried about traffic - Mister Bumblebee would overheat.....but he was great - even in a few slow areas the needle just pinched by 195. I know he has air...but I wanted the roof off!

The ONLY reason I can;t be at the track now is because of the stinking gas station line ups...not enough gas in any vehicle to get me there and back!

I'm only gonna be up there Sunday--which should be about the time I'm finally able to get gas!

You have power at your place yet, Nika?

What a day - Had a great tour of the Prodrive facilities there - a super group! Driving back - very surreal to see the city without lights or power!
