raceway video

If you were at Perris Saturday night or if you watched this weeks "clip of the week” you might have heard Scott mention some new fans of CRA and sprint car racing in general. These are a bunch of guys stationed in Anaconda Iraq that happened to link to my site somehow and got hooked on the racing and have become fans of Tony Jones. They ordered a bunch of DVD’s and they look forward each week to catching the new video clip highlights. This past Saturday night Tony Jones and Scott D gave them a shout out which I included as part of the clip this week. Below is a e-mail that was received today by myself as well as to Tony and Alexander racing;

"Hey everybody,
I just ordered a bunch of videos from www.racewayvideo.com and got a little dialog going with Jeff. I alerted him that the package arrived safely and I am enjoying everything so far. Jeff tells me today to look at the clip of the week, said I might get a kick out of it. Boy did I……
Man let me tell you…. for Jeff @ Raceway videos to set it up for Tony to give me a personal shout out like that to me and my buddies here….. WOW... I cannot tell you how much that meant to us; what an enormous moral boost. Then for the announcer to carry on the way he did….. Unbelievable!!!! I am truly touched, the guys and I hit the roof and thought it was the coolest thing.
I don't know what to say except….. GO ALEXANDER RACING and TONY JONES"


It just blows me away that so little, goes so far and means so much. These guys have their life on the line everyday so that we can go racing and live our lives the way we are used to. I would like to take it another step and send them a little care package. If anyone would like to donate a t-shirt or hat or anything race related, I'll make sure they get it. See me at the track or shoot me an e-mail racewayvdo@aol.com
Thanks
Jeff K
