Most everyone had a good time at the race and people are looking forward to another event like this. Here are the screenshots my LS took. http://almostheroesffxiv.com/gallery_categories/16584
I made a little slideshow video with some pics I took during the event if any want to see it:

Kolbey Trifel does an event like this every month called the Onion Race. It's a smaller scale but he's always good about making neat graphics and such for his site.
Alothia already posted the link but I'll post it as well.

He also hosts a Hide and Seek event on the 15th of every month. That's also a nice change of pace and there are always new faces showing up.
^ Ya I know what you mean.
was good fun that race! would be even better with a good 50-60 people.
the diremite alley near bluefog and that wyrmking perch cave are impossible to traverse without throwing a good 10+ bodies as sacrifice
a hide and seek in Mor Dhona/coerthas on rank 1s sounds like a blast to me :-)
Also I wonder if theres any zones that could be a death run for r50s, would add a nice touch going through 80-100 rank agro mobs on r50s but can use any combat abilities you want etc. Just don't know if theres a viable route in the game except for maybe coerthas around wyrmkings/the lance or north west mor dhona
