Would you like to see a stunting TV Show?
Most of you don't know me, so let me introduce myself...
I'm Michael Thompson. The President/CEO of RSBN.net, Inc. We are the world's largest 24/7 Motorsports Broadcast Network.
We currently broadcast radio only but we have the TV technology ready to roll and have a target date for an early 2005 release. This is not the small video screen stuff. It is capable of full screen 30 frames per second and from about 4 feet from your screen looks like your normal TV picture. It does require broadband Internet access, but then again it is TV.
At RSBN.net we are looking at broadcasting motorcycle stunting. I intend on showing it in a positive light. If any of you want to help with ideas, video and/or just want to support this, PM me.
Thank you for your time...
Michael

We are talking Internet TV here. We call it Internet TV because it is being developed as an Internet telvision broadcast network similar to our Internet Radio network.
Just don't want to confuse anyone. If you have broadband you will be able to watch it and the best part is you will be able to watch it for free.

Re: Would you like to see a stunting TV Show?
We would like to make it a weekly show, one hour in length, in a specific time slot and on a specific day.
Those so quick to jump up and say "Show me the MONEY" need to stop and think about the exposure and the future benefits. We appeal to race fans right now... If we can expose them to stunting, the popularity grows. If the show takes off... It may be possible to interest sponsors and venues to help create a "Stunt Wars" competition similar to X Games. Could that be in the near future? Yes... But there needs to be cooperation to get it off the ground.
Remember where you want to go and don't be too quick to throw road blocks in your way.

People are way too quick to say "show me the money"
What's wrong with doing it for the fun of doing it and of course for the exposure you'd get??
Just my 2 pence worth!!

Re: Would you like to see a stunting TV Show?
No offense, but this doesn't sound like it's gonna be MULTIBILLION dallor show here. i mean, if you tihnk about it, it's just starting, and no one could like it. SO why would they even buy you a new bike if the show fails? Seriously dude, you have a completely valid point and i couldn't agree more. But right now isn't the time to ask for money, there are so many places were stuntiing isn't even know about, i tihnk before we start asking for big money, we get all of america into this, ya know? i think the time of big money will come and you'll get your cash, but this isn't A multi-billion dallor show or station. THis is a profitable radio station dabbing into stunting, and right now this is the best thing for the stunters.
i know you'll bring up the point that i don't even stunt a bike yet, I but Plan on investing for my income when i leave school, so i look into things of this sort.
You remember when skate boarding wasn't allowed on side walks? i think stunting will be just the same.
SO right on, Get that hard earned cash, but let's get a few more poeple on the band wagon, and if you make a few bucks cool, OK?
keep it real

Re: Would you like to see a stunting TV Show?
I do not blame CBO for being cautious, however I think at this point if you are a stunter you have nothing to lose. Growing up as a musician I always have that dream of being a national recording artist, but there is a lot of hard work that comes before that, and I will go anywhere to play a show, and not even get paid, because you know what i'm going to be sitting in my room playing my guitar anyway, so I might as well do it in front of some people, and hopefully play for the right people, who can take me places. Same thing goes for bikes. You are going to go out there and ride even if no one is filming you, so you might as well let someone put you on the internet.

Re: Would you like to see a stunting TV Show?
i'll believe the show when i see it lol, i've seen many of these threads start.. hell i'd stunt for fun and ride.. but i mean i see these threads getting everyones hopes up.. hope yer serious, RSBN and if you are talk to Todd Colbert. he's been here for awhile maybe he can help set stuff up. hope it works out, be interesting to see some bike stunting on tv instead of DVD.
