Hi Keith,
Been giving your query some thought.
1/ The Corowa DVD is/has become an important historical item in its own right.
2/ It must be near impossible to distill one week, 200 vehicles and thousands of people into an hour or two on a disc.
3/ You can't make everyone happy all the time.

I do have trouble some trouble with "moving camera" footage like Ryan, maybe because my eyes are not what they used to be.

One of the biggest thrills of these videos (Ok, DVD's) are the sounds. To hear what some of these vehicles sound like can be more important than the vision. The look of a vehicle may interest or excite, but only the sound can give you goosebumps and make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. (That damn Boomerang does it everytime, its in the top five). Its almost aural viagra!

I expect this will be your biggest seller, as anything to do with Jeeps seems to be more popular (and more expensive) than any other military vehicle.

Also loved the kid on the bike, pure gold. Ever considered doing a Blooper reel? You must have hours of mistakes and stuff ups filed away.

Waiting with antici.................pation for more.
Rich.



OK, top five mechanical symphony's, in no particular order:
V12 doing a very low and fast pass
Whistling Boomerang
BRM V16 at speed on a race track
Any engine firing for the first time after YOU have just put it together
Your choice, can't do all your homework for you.
