I partially agree with Mich.... It would be great for you and Neil to come out and bash/bbq with us. The cameras aren't required. I wouldn't want you to think that we are only interested in your video taping.

Its certainly not required at all, just a fun day of bashing. its all about the fun and people on the 7th. I can hardly wait for it.

Sounds like fun to me! Don't worry about the camera stuff... I take it everywhere we go anyway! So no offense taken. :)

I thought the hills are all gone now... have to bring some ramps?

So far the 7th sounds good. Thanks for the invite, I didn't see it on the chitown site.

Brian

sweeeet. Squid's team is gunna be there.

We are bringing ramps and just bashing in the grassy area and parking lot.

Drag races will be cool, and we could set up a course through the trees. Nothing special just a little course of some sort.

glad your gonna come. We definatly need some ramps so if you got something feel free to bring it. All the info is on the showmerc.com site under the chicago section. We got 15+ people that we know are going and then a couple people are bringing some friends with so im guess close to 30 by the time everyone is there. Its gonna be a blast. Im even gonna probly make a frequency chart so we dont get any of that messed up. Cant wait till the 7th. Only 17 more days till the huge bash. O and brian do you think i can use your camera and tape for a while? I love to video tape but i dont have any high end stuff like yours. Would you mind if i helped out with the camera's? I even want to make a video of this but i just need footage. I got some sick idea's running through my mind about great shots. Something along the lines of for an entry everybody doing a huge jump at once all single file. Maybe even some people will do some backflips? :D :D :D I cant wait.

sounds like it's going to be a blast. If you think you are not going to make a frequency board, let me know, and I'll try and make one, because were GONNA need it with all those people.

I can picture a pile up of about 20 cars at the end of that ramp... LOL.
Better save that for last.

As for filming, we'll talk about it... fell free to email me. I don't mind people holding the camera, but we'd have issues of what tapes are what, can I use that shot also, that sort of thing. Drop me a line.

Hmm... I think I have one of those tiny grills out back... have to get some charcoal. Is this going to be a all day event?

Brian

That would look cool, but would also be VERY difficult. All the trucks go different speeds.... It would probably be easier to do something like this, by getting footage of each truck going off the ramp, then editing it together.... To be sure that there is no varience in the Image, the camera could be set on a tripod....

well i mean every 2 seconds a truck would go so that way there all spaced out but yet close together. Of course everybody has to be going wot otherwise there is a greater chance for a hack in the back. Every second a truck goes and it will be fine. trust me ive thought this out many times and it will work as long as nobody slows down or stops.
