I am currently filming a documentary featuring an all out day of almost anything you could do on a minibike! You can see the preview on youtube under the channel name- MiniBikeOutlaws It will feature racing, trails, jumps, wheelies, a street journey, helmet cam (hopefully), and more!!!
if you have any suggestions of what i should include, i encourage you to post your ideas here!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::smile:

Good luck w/your project. That's a good start. :thumbsup: Have you made other vids before? I only see the one on your channel. Whatcha got for cameras and an editing program? If you've got a helmet-cam or bike-cam, you might think about having it point backwards occasionally while the subject bike follows the camera. Placing the camera on a helmet can work better than mounting directly on the bike because it insulates the camera from vibration. Almost any digital point & shoot camera takes pretty good video, so it's pretty easy to have multiple cameras going at once and catch the action from multiple viewpoints. I've made several vids and it's been a lot of fun, but they're pretty amateurish. The link to my channel is at the bottom of this post. Check out gaposis's vids for ideas. He's not on this board, but his dirt bike vids and other vids have a real professional look. Here's a link to his channel.

You need a segment for minibike pickers. You find an old mini in a barn of junk and deal with the toothless guy who owns the barn.

no, they cops dont mind at all, 1 of them rides vintage mini-bikes themself, he has a taco 22. the only races around here are the ones i arrange with my friends, & the lonestar roundup (once a year).
