That would have been a great weekend Jim.

We're lucky to have that many F5000's in NZ and the guys actually get stuck in and race them.

Non of these 'demonstration' races.

It's great to see, and hear, and the spectators love it! I have heard of guys who bring cars (not F5000's) over to SFOS who complain that we race too hard.....WTF.....Apparently things are a bit more genteel in some other parts of the world!

Being an engineering type, did you happen to notice which way the centrelocks tightened on the F5000s and CanAms? A topical and controversial subject last year.

Thanks for posting the pics.
