The last weekend of August, I spent about 60 hours working for my uncle's new TV production company, Collins Production Group. We spent five days at Gravelrama 35, an annual racing event in Cleves, OH. There are four days of 4x4 racing: junior racing and uphill drags on Friday, flat drags on Saturday, the big (70 feet at a 70 degree andle) eliminator hill Sunday, and the obstacle course Monday. There is a great range of vehicles, all organized into classes. I think the most powerful cars are about 4,000 horsepower and can get to about 120 mph over the course of 100 yards of gravel. Standing next to them when they take off is intense, and you can literally feel it even 30 yards away inside the TV trailer. I would like to be able to post photos of the event, but I was so busy working that I had time to take exactly zero in the 58 hours I spent there.
Anyway, I made a simple website for my uncle. Not all of it is exactly what I would have done, but I'm not the customer. Keep in mind also that this is far from complete as my uncle's schedule in the TV business doesn't exactly provide for a lot of aide in getting me what he wants.
One of his friends is supposedly having trouble getting to the site, and he also claims to have problems with the video on the page being REALLY screwed up. I am getting no problems in any of the browsers I have tried, nor operating systems.
So, I call upon you guys. If you would be so kind, go to
http://www.collinsproductiongroup.com and let me know if A.) the site loads completely and quickly, and B.) that the video clips on the "DVD Sales" page play fine without corruption and whatnot. I'd greatly appreciate it.
Also, the site IS public (obviously), so please don't submit bogus mailing list info. It will just waste my uncle's time, and I am trying to do him a favor here, rather than the opposite. If however you are actually interested in the production, feel free to sign up. I'm sure my uncle would be glad.
