Do you need a Hotel for Maple Grove?
Due to the video restrictions I will not be attending Maple Grove next weekend. I am going to cancel my reservations at Comfort Inn. Before I did I thought I would give someone a chance as I understand getting a room this late is next to impossible. Send me a PM and I could work a switch with the Hotel. Just trying to be helpful. I will cancel it by this Sunday the 30th if I don't get any response.

Re: Do you need a Hotel for Maple Grove?
Sorry to hear this, Rob. Like many,, I've enjoyed your videos. I can't imagine that if a paying spectator is in the stands with a camcorder for his own use and enjoyment, that the video police would come running. I'm not saying this NHRA/ESPN policy is a bluff or scare tactic,, but it sure smells like it.To my knowledge, I haven't heard of anyone having their equipment confiscated, have you?
At any rate,, I appreciate the time and travel you put into your pastime. Take care. Danny Durham |

Re: Do you need a Hotel for Maple Grove?
Rob, your work is great...subscribed on YouTube and reviewed races often. Folks like yourself recruit younger drivers into our "graying" classes and the new policy is really unfortunate. Hope you continue at other races where allowed.

Re: Do you need a Hotel for Maple Grove?
Have not read the article, is NHRA breaking balls for video of qualifying runs or just for race day video?

Re: Do you need a Hotel for Maple Grove?
Rob,
I'm pretty sure ALL the video you take is for study - everyone who sees it is studying how their own car (and all the other cars) works and how to improve. I think that falls into the "official" use guidelines.
