    Videos could be cool. But if its sunny and bright out its awfully
    hard to project the stuff without some serious high end equipment.
    Maybe as its gets darker?

    Anyway I'd be down to help on something like
    this if its started!

    Or we can talk to Paul Cote and find motorcycle friendly businesses (restaurants) that would donate their parking lot and provide food. The Jockey Club in Raynham comes to mind.

    Do you have the technology to show a video (or two)?

    This, for example to cool down some of the squids?

    Crashin sucks...

    I think videos like that only cool down the squids that want to be or are open to be cooled down...

    Stunters see crashing as 'part of what they do' and for some it's some sort of 'rite of passage' And if you've ever watched those stunt compilation DVD's, they'll show nasty wrecks and some guy in the hospital who goes back out and stunts on the highway again, despite having crashed on public roads already...

    It boggles me that stunters don't wear gear... but that's a different topic altogether.
