Please, NO!

Don't turn Pit Bits into just another video content.

😕

Yeah, even without any explanation of close-up shots showing what's actually going on with specific parts, isn't that what Pit Bits is all about? Maybe this was just an exception, or there's still a regular one coming out for Unadilla. I don't know.

Hasn’t this been tried a few times, and every time people want the old format?

So you took what most likely was your best content that everyone loved and changed it without rhyme or good reason to a lame video, with what could be the lamest music ever used in a motorcycle video, that doesn’t explain anything that is going on… 🤨🤦‍♂️

The people have spoken, no one wants the video pics. I don’t even really watch the riders interviews, I’ll read all of the written pieces though.

Just like the last time this was brought up, just because they upload a video to YouTube doesn’t mean you aren’t getting your written article and photos. It’s only Sunday. Calm yer tits!

We’ve done a video one before the race the last couple rounds and a photo one after. Calm down folks, you’ll get a photo version on Tuesday.

Damned for making more content for everyone.

Have you tried taking the game cartridge out and blowing into it?

What’s harder to upload and put together, the video or the picture pit bits?

The photo version probably takes four or five times longer than stitching a video together I would say.

Photos with captions take much longer.

I'm all for more content but personally, if it's a video, I don't watch it.  I read and look at pictures.  I'm also old and you can get off my lawn,

And that's why we do both. We have readers and watchers. Sadly, watchers vastly outnumber readers these days.

It's the photo sorting/editing that takes forever.

See the "My Unadilla Experience" thread.  I put up a few behind the scenes, camp, practice pics up

I guess I understand where you're coming from....kinda....but they ain't doing it for free.  They get paid.  Vital is not manned by volunteers.

ML, count me as another vote for loving the picture version of Pit Bits.  Best article about the races anywhere on the web every week, thanks for the hard work on that.  Yes, I know you said you've been doing both awhile, just wanted to let you know that we do love the written version.

The video one is just quick to put together to give people some "pre-race vibes" and the first week we did it I actually only posted it on our YouTube and not on our homepage because I knew people would freak out. 

The video Pit Bits has a blue theme on the thumbnail, and the photo one has the same look it always has. The easiest way to tell them apart.

I love doing the photo side, especially when I'm the one who is actually at the race to shoot it.
