Might probe a bit harder for UK cats, but here goes
I recently transfered some sweet 8mm film from 1977 San Diego tracks. Features the Parson's Dry Wall team and Ritchie Dupree (full picture made BMXA back in the day)
(http://images.vintagebmx.com/web_pages/sidehackguy/RANC-HAC.jpg)
It includes killer footage of Rancho, Lakeside and Las Palmas including the infamous 77 Hack VS. tandem race at Las Palmas in Chula Vista CA. I was there that day and remember it fondly cause that's when Pam Koble became my girlfriend (Sadly, she never knew)
It runs 36 mins, has a few seconds of non-bmx stuff at the begining but overall, the movie was pretty cool. (No sound however)
Anyone who wants one, contact me through e-mail. I'm hoping to recoup the money it took to convert it to DVD so any donations would be appreciated but not required (Just the mailing cost) . Any excess money will be given to Bob Bohn (who I got the film from and was the starting gate guy at Rancho back in the day) as a token of appreciation for his

Update on this, I scanned about 300 pictures from those tracks. Ben Joy will redo the CD with those pictures (and some music) included. It's going to take some time, but the finished product will be even better
