For
those of you familiar with the Transit Race DVD series you will find a
definite change of pace with TR4.
TR4 starts off with the UCI Supercross (downhill) race at Woodward East,
PA. This time there is a lot more race action than the behind the scenes
look that we got in TR3.
The Nate Berkheimer interview was a little disappointing. The name Transit
Race implies that the DVD is a race DVD and interviews on previous TR
DVDs were very thorough when it came to racing, even though they showed
the riders riding a lot on trails. Nate didn't talk much at all, he let
his riding do all the talking, but it was at a skate park. While his riding
was impressive, I would have liked to find out a little more about Berkheimer
and what makes him tick from a racing perspective.
The section with TJ Lavin's backyard is worth looking out for, and the
race footage isn't bad either.
My favourite part of the DVD is the Double Down one-on-one racing on a
cut down race track. The jumps were very technical and the corners were
tight, bringing even the most seasoned pros unstuck.
If you want to get over an hour and a half of BMX action on DVD, Transit
Race 4 is a good all round DVD.
