Oh and when all the racing has stopped, you can always keep your revs up by the views from the balcony! ... ROFL

Yeah I have to admit I'm not the biggest fan, but as it's my first year here I thought I'd have to give it a go, and was very impressed with it all, especially the V8 Supercars!

Exhibitionists on the balconies was a bonus I guess ...

Definitely going next year. It was soooo quiet down here this weekend, quite strange. Oh and we had about two drops of rain Saturday evening

I think there was about 3 drops on Sunday, but it held out in the end ...

Yep, managed to stay dry this year. 2002 was the worst - my first Indy, and the Champ Car race was run under yellow flags in torrential rain. I have never been so wet in my life!

We even made it to the post-race officials party this year for the first time, apparently I drank rather a lot of champagne ........ and nearly fell off the balcony at the Holiday Inn, but I think The Bloke is making it all up
