blackair - the movie?


I got my copy in the mail.


Interesting to see that the zinc additive is a sponsor, and the duplication,distribution and mailing is performed by another one of RC's companies.


Its good to see money being put back into the hobby

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

I think the nc-17 rating would alienate most of the target demographic   :)

in fact, anyone that wears their cap backwards should not be allowed near one of these cars even if they are 30 years old

I was goin' thru some archives recently- had not realized the height(or depth) to which "youse" verbal sparring had climbed (or sunk) in the heydays.

Black Air critique:


Moves kinda slow, Cinematographe r indulges himself in some techniques that don't add anything, way to much time spent on some individuals of questionable merit,
a very narrow focus, ignores  the aftermarket ...... 
When you show EVERY racing scene in slow motion it really drains the energy out of it.
