    Hi everyone :)

    My name is Sam Hyde. My friend Nick Rochefort and I do a webisodic comedy show called Million Dollar Extreme. We have almost a million cumulative views and over 2000 subscribers on YouTube. Here are some highlights:

    Here's a link to my professional graphics portfolio, to give you some idea of the quality involved when it comes to our filmmaking/visuals:

    Anyway we are both really into cars. We have lots of experience with karting, nearly perfect driving records, and we're both very upset that the US doesn't have anything on par with the British Top Gear.

    We'd like to rectify that, in our own small way, by shooting a six or seven minute piece comparing old and new Ferrari icons. The specific cars I suppose will largely depend on whomever is willing to donate fifteen minutes of drive-time in their baby. Some possible match-ups might be, a 308 vs. a 360, a Testarossa vs. a 430, etc.

    By 'match-up' and 'vs.' I don't mean we plan on drag racing the cars. I mean driving them comfortably within their mechanical limits and the laws of the road, then comparing the two in a way that is comedic yet insightful. Respect for the machines will be priority #1.

    OK, so, is there anyone out there generous enough to help out with this project, or am I completely out of my mind? I really hope I'm not making an ass out of myself by asking to 'borrow yer F'rari', but we love these cars so damn much, and we think we can bring something new to the table in terms of automotive entertainment.

    Very respectfully,

    Sam and Nick
