Awesome race report, Grant.  I can tell that it is very difficult to upload that many pictures. You had to do it a chunk at a time.  People don't realize how time consuming a race report is, especially with good pictures. Thank you for your effort.

Nice job Grant!

 

Cleaning up and resizing the pictures is a pain. Keith Tanka or Nesta sends them off-site, that method might not require scaling. The better the camera the bigger the file.

 

I'm not sure how Noose does it with .pdf

 

IMO ... Pictures of every car with tech sheet is important.
