  • Professional video from Whitney Point?

    Anybody know the status of the video that the production company was shooting at Whitney Point? When it will air or be released? Will we be able to buy it?

      The DVD will be available for purchase through the S.O. promotional committee. All inquires should be directed to either Chicago Paul or myself.

                huh??

                APBA licensed material being sold on Ebay first????? Why is it not sold directly by APBA first and offered to the members first and even advertised here??? Seems awful silly for an APBA member having to buy a "promotional video" through EBAY................or am I assuming something that is not true???? Did the "promotional committee" approve this and decide it was the correct way to PROMOTE???

                    thanks for the update Troy! hey, what happened to the video that (DirectTV?) was filming? Is this part of the video? There was some cool "in boat" racing video filmed, including when the "Birdman" had an accident...........I also should have gotten some good footage of some fast 44XS boats passing me in DSH!

                      DirectTV is still on. Again I'll have Paul communicate everything, hopefully tomorrow.

                        No good deed shall go unpunished

                        Folks,

                        This is our first time doing this on this scale and we are working our way through it.

                        The E-Bay item number is 320323558517 and we need your support if we are going to be able to do this again.

                        As of yesterday afternoon we felt confident enough to take orders that we could ship by Christmas. I still don't have a "Teaser Video" but will before the week is out.

                        Yesterday I sent an e-mail to Tana at APBA and asked her to modify the Stock Outboard link at WWW.STOCKOUTBOARD.COM and it will validate that it is an APBA authorized item. Tomorrow, one Tana had made the change, I was going to post on Hydroracer to click on the APBA banner on Hydroracer (Which we pay for) and all would be good.

                        But first, I wanted a few folks on the committee to see it and make sure they did not want to make any changes before I made the announcement to the world. The only way to do that was to put it up there so it could be easily seen.

                        E-Bay was BY FAR the fastest, easiest way to do this. In addition Paypal gives a FULL accounting of who bought what and what the true costs were. Also flexibility in payment.

                        I am getting nothing for the effort, nor do I want anything. I am copying and printing the DVD's, buying the mailers, addressing them, and shipping them myself. ALL to learn how to do this better next time save money and make sure that we have the best opportunity to do this again.

                        So if you want one Go to EBAY item number 320323558517

                        Satellite TV dates still to be announced.

                        Thanks for your support!

                          Are the labels stick on?

                          If so, be advised that it DOES NOT WORK. Many of the labels will stop the DVD player from being able to spin the disk ... and even if it works at first, later the adhesive will eat into the media layer and destroy the data.

                          I have several examples of other boat races sent to me like this that became junk before I could watch them. The data could not be recovered.

                            Stick on labels do work on many DVD players IF the label is properly applied. But no, these are Inkjet DVD's. But, that was a good and reasonable question.

                              I hope I didn't stir up any trouble here. I'm excited to order several as gifts.
