MAS - Bathurst GTR - DVD ??

[R31Nismoid]

Steve has done some homework for us (much appreciated it is Steve for making the phone calls)

So 1stly, does anyone have a copy of the GTR going around Bathurst at all?

To possibly show at MAS with the car ?

2ndly, - this is steves bit and im just relaying the words

Channel 7 have said that it is not upto them if we display it.

It is upto the distributor of the DVD itself.

So, if anyone has footage of the race.

Please put your hand in the air :wavey: and let us know.

Then one of us will contact the distributor to find out if we can show it or not.

It would be great to have footage of the car i think.

I have a VHS of the 1992 race where Richards called the crowd "a pack of assholes". Maybe capture it if that's the best we can find. DVD would obviously be much better.

HEHE I remember watching that live.

We gotta have richards calling the holden and ford supports assholes on repeat.

I think we should have a single TV or monitor next to the Gibson car playing the race on repeat all day.

That's pending permission from the distributors.

I've got the DVD containing highlights of bathurst races from 1989 to 1992. Has clips of the GTR and the R31 GTS-R etc.

probably one of the 15 threads that have been in this section in the past 2 weks would be a good idea

If they aint on page one, they will be on page two/three.

dont tell me ya missed ALL the threads?

anyhow, Shan, we just need top contact the distributor of the DVD.

why convert it to DIVX though?

just run the DVD as it is, provided we get approval

[funkymonkey]

i'm cool wid dat... I assumed it was a channel 7 thing coz its their footage...

any luck contacting channel 7 askin em for footage or is it all tied up in distribution rights?

Its got all highlights tho... including Skaife calling the crowd a bunch of arseholes

[KamikazeR33]

i was too young to remember that moment i remember the race but thats all

there must be a dvd out there with just the whole race on it, like the afl grand final ones

[KamikazeR33]

Do you ever read the ORIGIANL POST? :slap:

it's got nothing to do with Channel 7. It's all to do with the distributors now.

Read my post. Steve called Channel 7 etc

[paulr33]

i dont think the distributor will worry but we do need to contact them to be sure, i mean its gonna be on show at autosalon with the actual car, why wouldn't they want it showed? but we do need to obtain premission.

This is the one I have

So he has it... in DVD

NFI where the DivX comes into it. More work for himself

Just call the distributor. Get thier approval, and we use it

nice and easy i think.

Errr u c0cksmoker.... What I asked was, have you approached channel 7 about aquiring the footage directly from them, or have they sold the distribution rights to a specific company, therefore they cannot release it direct to the public?

And yes I do have the DVD. Will bring it next meeting and you can all review it.
