2010 Shootout DVD - - The Ack Attack

[Seldom Seen Slim]

I'll put this note in the for sale thread - because Brian Lecky, the head honcho behind this DVD, wants to sell some of the DVDs to you folks out there in racing internetland.  There's likely to be an ad on the homepage and the Forum in the next few days, but in the meantime --

The jacket of the disc says:

"In Fall 2010, Rocky Robinson was strapped into his 2-wheel streamliner, the Ack Attack.  In front of him was 11 miles of perfectly flat salt, taunting him to open up the throttle and set a new motorcycle landspeed record.

But everything went wrong. . .

This is the story of Mike Akatiff and his team's battle to overcome the laws of physics and conquer the fickle Bonneville salt . . ."

Here's the trailer for the show (trailer meaning "teaser") that ". . .will be broadcast on Discovery HD Theatre / Velocity Channel next month."

Enjoy it and keep your eyes open to catch the complete show on the TV.  And buy the DVD, hey?  I don't have Brian's price for it yet -- but you can start getting ready to purchase.  Oh, yeah -- he told me that you can go to www.landspeedshootout.tv to buy it now - there's even a Paypal button to make the transaction easy and quick.

Enjoy the show, folks.  We were there, and it was an epic story all right.

I just watched the DVD last night, great stuff, very well done IMHO. I only meant to watch a few minutes, but couldn't turn it off. Even though I knew the outcome, it was too entertaining to stop.

Jon I think you mean 2010 Shootout DVD in your title.

Thanks, Dean.  All fixed - for now, at least.  And I appreciate the unsolicited review of the DVD.  I haven't yet watched it - but promise we'll do so soon.
