I watched the Crystal Brook Nats this morning over my Coco Pops and it was great job with the interviews although I'd have liked to have seen an interview with one of the really old blokes like Col Metcher or one of his Super Seniors. Not to worry, Alison and Steves "little" boy came accross like a pop star and Freaky did a brilliant job sexing up the ugliest DT1 in captivity
. He also did an extremely
articulate interview, so different to his online personna (
no insult intended ). He promoted and organised this event with an enthusiasm we could all learn from.
We haven't had much TV in our 20 years history....Channel 7 did 15 minutes on the old Sportsworld Sunday sports show on the Nepean Dirt Track Nats back in the early nineties with reporter Terry Galloway
(dad of Retrocross founder Shaun Galloway..2SEVEN ) doing a brilliant job with interviews and some early onbike camera stuff using Channel 7s Bathurst technology. A few years later in the late 90's one of the country networks (
Maybe WIN) did a half hour piece on the Condo Greybeards event that I've only seen the once.
Let's hope that MXTV is inspired enough to repeat the coverage with next years inaugural two tierd Nats at Wyaralong Park,Qld for pre 78 and Tasmania for the Evo/Pre 90.
