Bret, I really wanted to see a full lap all the way around Laguna Sega in (or of from the chase car camera) one of the high end built cars (ie: Shipka, Maier, you) as well as one of an ordinary everyday hotrod that was out there too like the Fairmont. I'd like to see that on ALL of the upcoming tracks.
A couple of comparable cars running together for a while on the road course would be even better, that way the viewers have a better idea of how one car is doing in different spots on the track than the other.
Imagine a camera set up in the same spot for Speed Stop runs that captures the 1st and 2nd place finishers in that event. Have them replay both runs side by side on a split screen to show just where the one driver beat the other in that event and how close they actually are to one another. Or show a car that has just an awful run on the Speed Stop, and then show the car again if the driver cleans it up and has a real good run.
That's what I want to see, not just who won...but how did they do it...
Video of the everyday Hot Rods on the courses is just as good as the high end cars, show the peeps that these events really are fun for every type of car and driver.
I realize that it is a tall order to capture all of that video as it's happening then to go back after the fact and try to sort it all out and make sense of it...but with the production value shown so far, I have no doubt those in charge can do this if they are just steered in that direction (assuming others want to see the same that I'd like to see).
