Well done to all at the DMCC for organising a fantastic GP.

Thanks to all the lads from the North for turning up, it was good to see 6 sets of heats with up to 8 cars in a heat:thumbsup:

Good move to give the juniors a trophy and the non-juniors:D a free set of Schumacher tyres, thanks to MSD models for supplying the tyres.

I'll work on getting a video montage edit done ASAP, you never know you might see yourself in glorious technicolour :D

Cant agree more great day really clean racing didnt have to worry about getting taken out, everyone raced together really good day!

Great to hear that people enjoyed the day.

I was kept busy with various things so didn't get to see much of the racing. Only quite time I got was on the rostrum.

I'll get the results posted during the week.

Thanks to everyone for the great days racing.

I have a finished version of the GP montage on Youtube.

It might get taken down as I'm using commercial music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liqOkf1oOlQliqOkf1oOlQ


I plan of producing a DVD with more clips for everybody who attended.

V2.0 of the XMas GP Montage Video www.youtube.com/watch?v=my13V1yNljsmy13V1yNljs

It's 80% the same but I found a few more interesting shots and included them in the edit.

I have one more change I'd like to make for V3.0 & then I'll leave it alone!!

That's the best bit :-):thumbsup:

Was at the track earlier to get a few more on car shots for the GP video.

I strapped two cameras on my car, one facing the front suspension & one facing the rear.

I did this purely to get a few more interesting shots for the GP video but MiCk mentioned it might make an interesting video on it's own.

You can really see how much work the suspension does!!

really enjoyed the onboard bits kev, really cool

[av4625]

wat do u use for slow mo? do u use some sort of twixter or just drag it out longer?

I do all my editing on Pro-end software, I normally use Apple Final Cut Pro or AVID Media Composer.

This edit I did with Adobe Premiere Pro (CS6), I was a bit rusty on this software so I used this edit to brush up on my editing skills.

I also use Apple hardware, I find WinTel systems are more unstable and tend to crash more especially when you are dealing with large HD files.

Super Video Kev..Well done. Tony.:thumbsup:
