“GROWING UP FAST” (First Draft Synopsis) Here is my first draft of my synopsis on the movie script about my life growing up fast. Now a movie synopsis is the first thing that someone will read who is interested in making this movie in theory it has to get past the first secretary in order to even be able to move on to the next step which is called a treatment a slightly longer version describing the script, then moves onto the script itself. Now in theory, a director or a producer will hand hundreds of scripts to possibly his secretary or colleague to read them all and and let him or her know if there’s anything that stands out or interesting in theory if it doesn’t get past this first person, it probably goes right in the maybe later pile or something like that it must be powerful and descriptive but very, very brief. This makes it very difficult for anyone to describe an incredible story in one or two paragraphs but anyway, this was my first shot probably not the official one but heck I’m still giving you a try. 💯%. #movie #growingupfast #moviescripts🎬 #life #determination #greatstory @realronhoward #stevenspielberg @video4film@kellynapp@ricknapp
“Night Of Thrills” This was a great night big crowds perfect weather and Sean Leary on the microphone and boy he could really add to a show yelling fire fire fire. He was one of the best. Now I shared this a while back but somehow I deleted it by mistake 🤪. Anyway no music on this one just raw footage. 💯. #dragster #dragracing #vintagedragracing #vintage #vintagecar #dragrace #funnycar #dragrace #funnycar #dragstrip #topfueldragster #family #nightofthrills #jetcars
“2004 K&N Filters Supernationals”. Worth watching in its entirety 💯%! (Short Story) When I watch this I think about running the facility with my brothers two years after my father had passed away the grand stands are full, and the facilities is running on all cylinders with me in charge of infrastructure, knowing that I prepared for this day to the fullest extent possible if anyone out there thinks that I don’t miss this well I’d have to say you’re crazy but I miss it this way running the operation full quarter mile drag racing great weather great team and great people around me helping make days like this possible for those. I’d like to say thank you to all the crew over the years that worked in all of the aspects from first aid to emergency to track personnel themselves. This one’s for you bringing back memories for everyone who was involved and for you to Fans Thank You 🙏. #vintagedragracing #dragracing #topfueldragster #funnycar #knfilters
“Fender Gaps Filled with Duraglass”. The body sits on the frame channeled down to where the fenders would sit on a regular #1932fordroadster and this small space was filled using #duraglass a reinforced fiberglass mixture 💪🏻. Next there is a small section of fender that must be made to cover the frame rails in front of the firewall. And that will be the end of all of the panels that will be covered with body work. #gettingcloser #working #sanding
“HAPPY FRIDAY”. It’s getting nice here in New Jersey and I think it’s going to be a great weekend so here’s a little treat from my family to yours ✌️. #familyfridays #goodoldays #summer #bayheadnj #1960s
“Raceway Park”. (Film Credit). Albert Bambace 💯😎🎥. This film 🎥 is an excellent example of what RP was and looked like in the early days. I don’t know the exact year or day but it looks like it was taken in the summer time with green grass on the side of the racetrack. #vintagedragracing #dragracing #vintage #vintagecar #dragstrip
“Florida 1960’s Style”. Traveling to #florida with my grandfather and friends they must have seen #rogermaris doing some kind of Tv show or something my aunt Audrey taking a seat in the directors chair with my grandfather, laughing and then crossing his arms. These were taken in #keywest my grandfather also flew his seaplane down and landed in a retention pond right next to a hotel where he stayed when he was not on the Chris craft. I have pictures of this. It’s unbelievable. I will share them with you all. Just a little something different here once again.
“About Yesterday”. Rick’s First ever Driving Experience with my 1955 Ford Thunderbird! A very special moment in my life it is the first person to ever drive this car except me in over 50 years and is the first time I’ve ever seen it going down the road without me. Now the story behind the scenes is that my friend @just_dropped_in is a extremely talented filmmaker who is making a special short film about a a son who is working with his father on projects and his big day is coming to drive the family hot rod for the first time now this reel will not compare with the film that was shot on a very expensive film camera 🎥. With soundtrack quality and dialogue and lightning along with some very special shot taking in my small workshop at my home there should be a very sentimental short film that should come out in due time I want to thank you, Justin.And I’m looking forward to finishing the final scenes with him this coming Sunday. One thing that when I was working At Raceway Park I never had any spare time to do something like that therefore, it makes it very exciting for me to do something different and learn as much as I can about shooting quality content for all of us to enjoy thank you for watching. #familyfilm #truestory #vintagecar #storytime #goodtimes @ricknapp@kellynapp@janjnapp
“THAT WASN’T THAT HARD”. Lower windshield molded into the body with #duraglass #fiberglass Soooo now that it’s been roughed out next will be regular bondo but next I will move onto the rear fenders were they have been shortened or bobbed with more fiberglass. I’m saving all finish body work at the end we’re the entire body will be filled blocked primed, and then blocked again in the final will be a black epoxy primer that I will drive this car for the shakedown other words, letting everything settle before no matter how hard I work that’ll be a while 🤔. #1932fordroadster #builtnotbought #autobodyrepair
