Just put together another video. Took the track down the park and setup a simple oval-ish shape. Hope you like the sound track, my favourite band at the moment (Lemon Jelly), good for driving to!.

I missed this before, I just watched your videos. Nice vids. I like how you drew the crowd in the second. I didn't have the balls to walk into a pub and set up and start racing, but a park, that might be a good idea. I just might have to do that one day.

Ok so, that track is looking interesting, but the problem for me is that I picked up some foam pads at Walmart pretty cheap. Now I'd rather have the walls on it like your tracks, but at this point, since I have foam mats, I would basically just be buying for the walls, but still I'm considering it. Did you ever set a price on those mats? I'm curious if it would be worth my while.

For all the American pimps:

£49.99 + £7.2 = $101.25. That's for UK shipping, so not sure how much more to get one to the U.S.

After racing Mini-Zs on an RCP track, I like the idea of dedicated track on a good surface, and siderails to keep things contained. Would like to see one of these in person. That's definitely a premium price, but it seems in line with RCP track pricing for what you get.

Hmmmm, interesting, so now, what's the "for bitPimps only pricing"

OK if you want to see me making an arse of myself on live TV check out Ideal World shopping channel Tomorrow (Saturday) at 11.00pm UK time. For those in the UK, sky channel 634 or freeview 22.

If you are further away you can watch it live via the net at

www.idealworld.tv

Not sure how long I will be on for, but it should be fun.

So how did it go?

TeamBonzer · Post by **TeamBonzer** » Sat Oct 29, 2005 12:29 pm

It went really well. On air from 11.00pm to 12 midnight. Sold about 150 sets. They were very pleased and have asked us back to do another show on Sunday 13th Nov at 9.00 am (till 10.0 am).

I will try and get some footage from the show on the web in the next few days - always good to see our passion on TV - got to be good for the sport!.

Cheers

Nice! Good luck in the future, Btw, what does it cost to be on this show?

TeamBonzer · Post by **TeamBonzer** » Sat Oct 29, 2005 12:41 pm

Shit, I dont pay to go on TV!

.

The way it works is that I supply sets to them at a trade price, they invite me to guest present, and away we go!. They make money on the track sets they sell.

Right, just got my head arround the technology of transferring video tape to the PC (again)

, I ve put part of the ideal world TV show we did last week on the website. Not sure how long I can keep it there, if Ideal World see it I will probably get slapped!.

go to http://www.bonzergear.com/html/video_clips.HTM and clck on the version your connection can take (either 64mb or 19 mb video files)

Hope you agree that it does the profile of micro r/c good.

Cheers

You know I just can't get enough of video editing

.

Maplin UK wanted a vid of the Bonzer Mat for their web site, so I threw this little beauty together this afternoon. Bit different from my usual vids as I have tried to make it a bit more pacey/punchy (avoided chilling before doing the splice and dice thang

).

Cheers
