1995 Indiana short track highlight film

Vertigo · 10/29/16, 3:13 PM

First of several annual video highlight films I made for friends back in the 90s. Shot on Hi8 and edited on a Video Toaster. Features a young Tony Stewart flipping off Dan Drinan at IRP, a car in the Paragon pond, Kenny Rogers, Tray House's wild Putnamville flip, action from Terre Haute, Twin Cities, Kokomo, Brownstown, Indy Speedrome, Bloomington and one very animated race fan.

Hope you enjoy.

Thanks! Love watching old races. Amazing to watch now and see how much faster cars are now. Not taking anything away from the old cars!

Nice video! Those are the higher banks that I remembered as a kid at Paragon. What about that drunk guy, lol!

Pretty cool... I like the soundtrack too, starts out early 60s "surf rock", some old school sax driven R&B in the middle, might call that last song rockabilly?
Do you remember who played which songs for musical credits?
Yea, the shirtless guy was pretty funny, getting all worked up even for Late Models...

That guy must have moved to Central PA. There was a guy up at Susquehanna a couple weeks ago doing the same thing all night long for every race. I never saw him with a beer though.
