Re: Thunderhill 2014 wrapup video is now live

The syncing between the music and video in the opening sequence was excellent.
It looks like you guys had a lot of fun making it.   The commercials puzzled me a bit, however.

"Jackie Stewart" is actually Alan Galbraith, the guy to blame for Billetproof and Concours d'Lemons.

Sir Jackie Stewart's Coin Purse is quite the topic of conversation everywhere, so I hear.

Hopefully somewhere that his boy can't find it.  He's at the age where he'd love to learn fun new words like those.

Re: Thunderhill 2014 wrapup video is now live

I'm a little disappointed that Spank didn't come interview me (since we had parked the car, i had nothing going on).  Anybody that's every spoken to me probably knows that my responses would have resulted in one long beeeeeeeep.

Oh... Maybe that's why he didn't interview me.

Yea, not really the image I need of me out there. Don't need people confusing "Spank" with Not Spank. I made the videographer promise that I'd be bleeped before I shot anything. Not that it makes it any better. But I had fun helping out, even if it was baked beans hot. Had I known they'd zero in on the 2 times I cursed, I'd have thrown more in there.

And, um, I still had to explain the whole testicles thing. Trying to dissect bathroom humor and explain what is supposed to make it funny so that it's not funny to a 6 year old is pretty tedious. Been waiting for that note home from school any day now.

I can't help but feel somewhat responsible for the Jackie Stewart testicle fixation...

Re: Thunderhill 2014 wrapup video is now live

• Live reporting format

•  Coaxing Jackie Stewart out of retirement for commentary

Hella Sweet!

*  No mention at all of the Guiness record

•  Bizarre/boring old car & Viagra commercials

•  Failing to note that the IOE winner's fastest lap was under full course caution (and arguably should have been black flagged for racing under yellow)

•  The complete, inexplicable omission of the I Got Screwed Award (won by the guys who ripped out their entire wiring harness, spent all night fabbing a new one from 10 miles of AutoZone wires and a pallet of connectors, only to find out the actual problem was the distributor)

Butt Turrible!
