The Harlem race with Jumbotrons was much more compelling than those without them. It was cool to see the lower cats race on it as well - you never see live stuff for a whole lap for, say, the Cat 4s. I couldn't see myself in the 3s but the Missus said it was fun to watch.
If Rock Racing did anything with all the footage they grabbed that day I don't know about it. They had (stationary) cameras at least at all the corners plus two cameras on Tyler and one camera on most of the other riders. A RR guy was going around with a bazillion black water bottles (battery packs) and cameras. Tyler carried two bottles, I think one other guy did also, most of their riders carried one bottle. It's the year the guy that won crashed after he threw his bike at the line.
