Brian... you are an awesome story teller.
That shit was rad.
What did they do that for? Were they trying to launch an ABR series? Or were they just trying to blow money cocaine style on a crazy ego shoot?

The magazine - I just HEARD about it and went looking for it but couldn't find it in the stores. I would LOVE to get a copy.
The shoot - They did it for the promo video for Auto Barrel Racing. I think they said it was a 100k production limit.
http://www.autobarrelracing.com i think.
from hitting up Google, it looks like they started doing ASB for real.
I forget where it was. I want to say El Toro area
sorry Andy.
your story is way cooler though. the parking structure was probably so cool.

our newsstand stuff is kinda new and not quite perfect yet, although we're supposed to be in most of the borders/barnes and noble/books-a-million.
PM me your address if you want and i'll throw some in the mail if you'd like.

LOLOL!!! That shit would have been SOOOO scary. Honestly, it was scary enough in my car. The wet concrete wasn't consistent, and would start to dry in patches... making shit freaky 5 stories up.

They said they'll give me the footage... and hopefully I can TiVo the commercial next week when it airs. I'm stoked to see this shit.
Lieze shot a good bit on my buddy's DVX... but he's flew to LA this morning until next week.
