Since this whole thing began a couple of years ago we have dealt with many different companies and people. The interactions have been concerning matters from sponsorship to media to shipping of vehicles.

Daily we have emails and messages from our audience asking when they will get to see the video. Unfortunately we have encountered a problem with the codecs for both of the formats we are using. We have contacted both Sony and Panasonic to get the proper updates, and should have some video up in the […]

March 1, 2007 – 4:49 pm
Over and over I have spent a lot of time reminding myself that this is all worth it. I continually made jokes to my friends just before leaving that I made a huge mistake a year ago when I presented this idea to Bouey. Next thing you know, I was on a plane after the […]
