This is a very professionally done video. Great Job! Thanks for helping spread the word that this is a safe, exciting and fun family sport. I betting you ace the documentary portion of the class.

Very well done Stephen.

Really great work Stephen. You got tons of great footage in there and it's put together so well. Looks like an 'A' to me too. I'm glad I could be a part of it.

I can't see how you could have done a better job at giving this sport the credibility it deserves. Good thing you didn't interview me after all!

Very Nice work, there are some great shots in there and it gives a great feel for the sport! Not sure about the choice for the voice over though...LOL JK Warren, nice job!

Its very nicely done, and I liked seeing old friends on the video! Wow, Nalbar's voiceover voice is different. Maybe its the tone that's different :P

I'm going to put this on my blog if you don't mind.

That's because he's probably reading off a script. :D I can't imagine what it would be like if Warren truely expressed what he really thought. :rock2:

Should of had a bloopers section at the end of Warren discussing (recorded, but off record) about what he thinks of other clubs. :rolleyes:

Great video Stephen! Nice to see some familiar faces too! It has gone north of the 39th! I'm posting the link on Canadian forums! :)

Miss running those events down there!

Stephen,

Great, great job! So what grade did you get? If not a A++ the we can have quite a few people talk to your professor for you.

Fantastic video.
This should be put on the main website to promote the sport.

Great job Stephen!

Wonder what the SCCA itself would think? Why not send it to them as well? Great job!

Considering they are not mentioned once in the whole thing, and 'SCCA' is shown only a couple times I doubt the main organization would be pleased.

But the SCCA Solo Events Board is made up of auto crossers. They will probably love it (one has already seen it).

I will open the ground school this Saturday with it, if Stephen doesn't object.

My hope is your instructor has requirement of a training video in his list of projects, then you can cover course worker, tech inspection, timing & scoring, course worker not getting run over, or clumping, gate worker. ::)

Hey michael, thanks for sending the link to them. i didn't know about the site before, but just had a chance to look at it and what a great site! The content on it is fabulous. I am going to contact them and see if they want to hire another photographer. ;)

Ron, go ahead and use it at the ground school.

My name is Morgan. You should contact them. They are a great group of people! Good luck getting a job with them. My fingers are crossed.

Ill be jealous!

And the emails we exchanged ( me and Justin Coffey an editor from coldtrackdays) was great. He likes that we brought the "grassroots" back to his page if only for single blog.

Stephen,
Outstanding work. It looks so professionally edited and produced that this warrants an A for the class.
Great job of narration by Warren too.

Bump to the top because there are a surprising number of people who have never even heard of this.

Nicely done. Didn't realize how much I'd been missing the sport until I saw that. I'm gonna have to head back out there real soon.
