Hi Realist, yeah great audience numbers for Drift Shifters... 209,000 viewers tuned in. That is about the same as Supertourers. I Directed on the day with my normal 3 Motorsport Supertourer crew and we had a great day. A huge buzz for the Camera Operators as they were right beside the track getting very very close to the action. One of our 1/2 million $$$$ cameras got dealt to by Fanga Dan but luckily the cameraman (Paddy Dunn) did not get injured. We had issues with our Drone Camera and Cable camera but apart from that it was a fantastic day.. We went Global on Red Bull TV so hopefully it is the start of something pretty big..
