jeez thats awesome man must be a great rush for the pilots

[Blazzo]

Don't think they can afford to get too excited, rather stay cool as ice as no room for error, wouldn't wanna dispute right of way with the ground at 400km/h...

I got some great footage of the race and crowds - will hopefully post it tonight if i get time.... was an awesome day but its quite difficult to carry someone on your shoulders and film at the same time.... sigh!
