Thursday F1 Indy 2004
 

My 3rd F1 race. Gary and I travel once again to Indy to see the all conquerinig Ferrari F2004. This time I brought my first digital camera: a Nikon Coolpix. I can now take lot of photos but still lack a decent zoom. We manage to get there for the open pit lane on Thursday ( 6-17-04) which is great as you get to see the teams practice pit stops and work on the cars up close. Anyone with a race day ticket could get in on Thrusday to see the F1 garages up close. It was very cool; great access! .
