    Well, we finally made it onto the grid late last night. It took a very long time for all the cars to get decals. It was fun seeing everybody at the Fairmont. Great venue. Smallish garage though =^) Scored some killer swag, including a few shirts and a new pair of Puma driving kicks with Gumball shoelaces. The crew was pretty darn cool given the circumstances (jetlagged and stressed).

    I was just there this morning to see the start, couldn't believe how nice these cars were! Amazing sounds, I was standing behind a grey scud during launch, if that was anyone's here.

    2:30- 101 @ SFO. Spotted black and gold Trans Am pulled over by either a San Mateo Sherrif or local, San Bruno perhaps, law enforcement type.

    Wow that was great!! I was behind the chrome gallardo to the right of TheKid's grey scuderia - absolutely stunning car. My picks of the day were the Carrera GT's - the sound was amaazing!

    I have the same question. The barricades were a pain in taking pictures. Is there some pass that one can go in to atleast photograph cars?
