Default I need YOUR help with the 2011 shootout video!

I am putting together a video of the 2011 shootout. I have a bunch of footage, but I am looking for other points of view. If you have any video or still images please send an e-mail to me at aleks@lethalinjectionllc.com. I would love to see some of the gopro stuff you guys have as well as anything from the pits or the car show.

Aleks,

Here's a few links to get you going. I have some more pics and vids but haven't gotten a chance to upload them yet. Hopefully I can get them done in the next day or so.

Kyle, what were you launching the car at? Was that run on the bottle?

Launching at 6250 on the 2-step. It was on spray but pig rich on that pass. After I dialed in the fuel pressure and got the bottle pressure up, it felt a lot stronger on the first round of eliminations against Kyle Kline but unfortunately I wasn't able to shift into 3rd gear. I need to make a few more adjustments with the clutch/pedal.

Thats perfect. I have many of those same runs! However, I can't download or use the youtube stuff. I need the original files. Perhaps, burn a DVD and send it? In the meantime I will get my clips in order.

It was nice to meet you guys too. I had a great time and I hope that I can have the time and money to go next year. Hopefully I can make something watchable, and maybe even influence/inspire new people to go next year.

Ok, need some beer, time to get creative.

I posted a few videos on youtube. If you edit my tech line video down you can get a nice rolling shot of about 20 cars in line. Here's the video:

Thanks for the faith. I will do my best. Here is a link to the first rough cut
http://vimeo.com/28749206
The pass word is: dragrace

Check it out and see what you think. There is no music, editing or anything else. I have the finals as well as the award ceremony, but I didn't include it at this time. Please leave comments. Also, if you see yourself, give me some info as to what's up with the car as well as your feelings on the pass being shown (ex. missed 3rd or best launch.) Remember, this is a rough cut! The final video will be much different. Lastly, this footage will only be up for a short time. So watch it now.
