Default Drag race videos needed

Must be super quality for spring 2005 TV show.

Vince, you may have some good ones....Edgar & the rest of the challenge racers?

Here is a copy & paste of the letter from Eckler's:

Tracy,
Hello from Eckler's,


Tracy, we are assembling our pilot show for next year, we need some drag
racing footage for a segment, preferable street style Corvettes, Camaros or
Classic Chevy (55-57)...any ideas???

I asked David the same...

Timeline is close, please let me know your thoughts???

Let's get some good stuff here!!! It can include any street type cars in racing, preferably Chevy's!!

Hey Vince, can you answer this for them?

Hi Tracy,

I'm coordinating some of the images we'll need for our new TV show and we
appreciate your willingness to help provide some video footage. My question
is, what video format is the footage referred to here?

Thanks,
Ron

I don't have too many high quality videos unless you want me to send you a VHS tape. I can transfer from the camcorder to the VHS without losing too much.
