Great job on the Vid. Congrats Warrtalon on all your sucess, and this was briefly mentioned, but it's just great to see these cars eat some vettes that are almost twice as expensive...love dropping vette owner's off the pedestal they think they are on...!!!

Yah, it looks a bit like the wastelands of Africa. I was a bit scared driving out there, hah.

I think I talk a good bit more about twisty racing than drag racing, but you may not notice if you don't frequent the Motorsports forum. I've done 3 road races and 4 autocrosses since my last trip to the dragstrip. Actually, the last time was the same day I did the rallycross from the magazine pic - did both the same day.

Don't like the song? I had never heard it before the video, but I thought it was pretty good. It's especially interesting if you apply the words to my persona and the racing itself.

Warrtalon you should have moved to Salt Lake instead of the Springs. You could be racing here http://www.millermotorsportspark.com/ 35 minutes away from my house.

yeah, you lucky SOB.

We're supposed to get a new race course near Denver sometime within the next 2 years, 4.X miles and two separate courses, similar to the Miller layout.

Cool vid Clay!

Warrtalon
i read that you mention on your things to come upgrade list, that you will be moving up the tire size along with the rims.
Have you even check on the Enkies RPF1 fitment issues, from what i understand, due to the design of the wheel you will have problems clearing the front calipers..
your best bet if you plan to stick with a 17 inch wheel and the RPF1 in particular is to go with a 17x8.5
If you must have a 17x9 you have options like the Enkie NT series or the zigen fn01rc

I tried to incorporate some things into this video, that people may have missed.

The lyrics talk about a rigid frame while there are pics of the car in tripod mode.

The lyrics say "holding on is harder then it seems" while clayton is in the most dificult turn on the course

Even the beginning, it zooms in on "polishing the rough"

There is more, but I really took my time with this vid.

I tried to also make it very simple, because I don't find Clayton to be the type of dude that wants a bunch of effects in his video.

Thank you all for the positive comments though, its what keeps me making videos.

If any of you have a lot of racing footage and would like something like this of your own, feel free to contact me.

I picked up on some of that, but didn't know if it was intentional or not.

"Seems so much easier to just give in" When clayton makes an error judging a turn and has to correct himself, but he doesnt give up he keeps plowing away.

"Another wasted saturday so here I'll stay, cause nothing ever seems to change anyway" I thought this was good because I imagine for someone to be as involved as Clayton his wife must thinks he wastes family time =) This was a freebie though, It didn't require anything in editing.

"All this hype about life being great, but where's the love for me these days?" I thought this was perfect because clayton has a lot of haters hah.

"Go!" As clayton is chasing a Z06 corvette


Sorry to spoonfeed, just thought I had some good thoughts in there =)

Sorry to bump an old post, but to add a little hype:

There should be some new Warrtalon Racing Videos that will completely blow away what has been previously posted. So....stay tuned in the next few weeks =)
