      Couldn't agree more. The dialog itself is so exceptionally on point to their goal I feel like they ripped it off of an old video and added their shots to match.

    The world seemed less manipulated in the analog days. Nice film and narration is spot on. Groovy.

    Super 8 gives everything it touches a feel of gorgeous nostalgia. This was wonderful to watch.

    what makes this so cool is not just the "announcer" voice-over, but the dialog of that announcing sounds authentically "dated"...
    bravo!

    OMG dude where were you? I was at this race filming a pit stop in with the exact opposite of the camera you were using on the same day. That's crazy I wish I woulda knew.... On top of that the car you show at the 50sec Mark was the car that I shot a pit stop in slow motion of, that's crazy what's a coincidence?!?!.

    As an advertising creative who has tried like hell for years to find a voice artist who can nail that vintage sports announcer enunciation, pacing and tone, I'm guessing the voiceovers here are authentic audio pulled from old films then matched to the magnificent visuals you've captured. Brilliant work!

    • @NickShirrell

      That’s correct! A combination of audio from a 1958 SCCA race and the 1963 Road America 500

      I've worked there in the past as a still photographer for a friend's race team. I work purely in digital where filters can be applied to simulate the look and feel of old film stock but there's nothing like the real thing I guess.

    Yes - very familiar look and style of shot, the pans, the zooms - but my dad was a little better at steady hands - don't forget how heavy those cameras where. Given how expensive the film and processing was, you do your best! Excellent commentary voice and accent.
