EDC featured film set for TV

Morning,

The film ' The Birth Of Prostreet ', made by EA Games will get its first full length release on European TV in April.

Broadcast on Motors TV as part of the EDC / Time Attack TV deal and our working relationship with EA Games, you will be able to see the film which features drivers from EDC and Time Attack, filmed last year at our EDC/Time Attack event at Silverstone.

The first viewing time of the 1hr film is : Saturday April 12th, 9.00 PM ( on Motors TV, channel 413 )

The film was produced as part of of EA's promotion of thier game last year but turned out to be one of the most inspiring films for our scene ever made, featuring Drag, Drift and Time Attack, where they came from, how they have evolved and how the aftermarket industry as a whole is changing and moving further towards the race track at organised events ( as is happening here in Europe ).

If you havent seen it already, set your TV for the broadcast and also record it. The film goes on to explain various aspects of each sport in detail, speaking to racers and organisers mostly in the USA but also with us in Europe too.

If there was ever a film that you could show someone who doesnt understand what you do or the current aftermarket movement that is in operation around the world and need it spoon-fed to them, this film is it.

Quick YouTube intro to the film:

Well thankfully you can only see his head - which in itself is bad enough I suppose
