I used a Nikkor 70-200 2.8 and a Nikkor 300mm 2.8 to take most of these pictures on the new Nikon D70.
yeah I took off the jdms cause I'm planning to get a Legacy GT Wagan (maybe...).

They said about 45,000 people showed up, but it didn't feel that crowded. I took a bunch of pics below to share and a funny vid or three. The race cars were pretty cool, the racing was okay - not great. I did see a couple good passes as there are two classes racing - 500hp and 300hp. But with a grid of 20 cars, it was nothing compared to an ALMS race.
I saw a lot of really cool cars. My pics don't have comments, but if you see the gray 240Z with it's hood open - it has the Sylvia 2.4l 4-cyl turbo in it (20DET?) Very cool. I saw lots of Sylvia's and 350z's and four Skylines.
Cusco and Tein had booths. The suspension shot is the Cusco display model of a WRX's suspension. I sat in some cool Recaro "Speed" model seats which are a new entry-level ($400?) sport seat with tilt adjust and great support.
The pics with the hot Japanese chick and the camera crew was really funny. This Japanese camera crew was interviewing her (she's American). They hardly spoke English and asked her: "arr uu naturallll?" regarding her appendages. She said no, and monkey-boy in the race suit went nutz in Japanese. He started gesturing towards his parts like he had a 3 foot member and saying "Natural! Natural!" It was really funny.

But no, they were sitting there watching the other car-***** out the window talking about how unfair it was that they had to wear white boots while the girls outside got pretty blue boots. I wanted to tell them to STFU and move so I could sit in their seat and watch the race.
