Here is the deal folks....you are either in luck or out of luck depending on how you look at this.

Since I did not race today, I have over 1 and 1/2 hours of video.

Obviously, I cannot process it all in one sitting.

However, so you have something to look at today ( I will likely be away from my home computer (video processor) I have added the complete first round of video to www.challengevideos.com

Enjoy those and I will get back with more as soon as I can.
