I was there for 6 days, about 10-12hrs/day as the "Sparky" (Unlimited #44 racer) crew photog again. Still going through looking for the keepers vs delete. Will take a few days to post. Weather Mon-Wed was nasty, but it cleared up and Fri-Sun was outstanding.
For the Unlimited Gold race yes, Strega won, surprising since Hoot blew out the manifold stacks on Saturday. He kicked butt on Sunday. Voodoo had an oil leak and Mayday'd out about lap 6 I think it was. Rare Bear had just passed him for second.

Nice images Harry. I think there are some techno geeks who use ISO 160 as the cleanest, noise free selection. Just curious why you used 200 for some?

Thanks Dave, good question, no real answer why I used 200 instead of 160. I normally use 100 as much as possible, didn't realize 160 was still a good noise free option. Will have to try next time.
San Francisco Fleet Week is this week and may go down this weekend and try it.
