Re: Uphill battle

His "Secret Valley of Racing" film is a few years old now but is an artistic time capsule of the track in every sense.

Caught the second half of the recent CT PBS showing of his new film on John Fitch's recent failed attempt (motor problems) at re-setting the land speed record for the original Gullwing Mercedes class.

His films are beautifully shot. They take enough time with their subjects to reveal depth and humanity with caring smart visual detail and thoughtful interwoven interviews. As a fan of racing and its history Chris takes you farther into the journey you were already enjoying and leaves you to your own conclusions.
