I think that may have been the most anticipated race of all time !!! The
build up and the hype were something else .. The pre race build up on TV ...
And then the race itself .. And the race lived up to the hype !!! Even for
the places behind Ben and Carl as Christie broke through there and Calvin
Smith gave a solid effort as always .. And the call of the race was one for
the ages ... Simply wonderful !!!!
