I'm at 14.1 GB and growing. 658 files...
I have so much I don't know where to start.
I have just about everything for everyone.
Some bikes too.
Some are 30 seconds long, others go over 3-4 hours.
I'm a premier member on racingflix too.
Funny thing is I NEED MORE
Any requests? :mrgreen:

call me a douche, but I have an 80 GB HD that has been filled for while now, just keep burning stuff off of it and downloading more. Now, we have a 160 GB HD, but I haven't had it long. We also have an old 12 GB that was filled over and over. See, I'm a douche. For all the other douches out there, RacingFlix.com is a very good site and worth the $5.99 a month for crazy fast downloads. Also, check out their forums for all the new Top Gear and Fifth Gear episodes, ripped and posted for us all to watch :D . If you've never seen those shows, you really are missing out on what television shows should be. I have thousands of videos, but there is one that I cannot find anymore and it was of a guy called "Pac Man" and he had a yellow S2000 with individual throttle bodies and it was sweet, and since my dad wants an S2000, I wanted him to see that. SRTforums.com has two video sections and they're pretty busy so there are always a lot of videos to watch, and you don't have to register. I would LOVE to get this forum going with some videos, we just need a section specifically for them so I don;t have to check like 10 forums everytime I come here lol. If we post them all in one section and give good descriptive titles, people will know what they wanna see and what they don't. At RacingFlix, the people have become somewhat jaded, and so they complain about a lot of videos that deserve some credit, so we need to avoid that. If anyone wants me to get some video of their car(s) and post it, just reply or PM me. If I can ever meet up with Robbie, he'll be on our website lol.
:shock: :driving: (that's me in the passenger seat lol) For a few examples of the videos that we can make (though these are not the best examples of camera work, just shows compression and clarity) check out http://atabo.com/wrx.wmv and http://atabo.com/alerointakevid.wmv, though some of you may have already seen them. I stuck a 7 color LED in my fiancee's shifter the other day (at her request)...if you wanna see a crappy video of how it came out, download http://atabo.com/alerogear.wmv. I got done putting in 7 color LED's behind all of her gauges an hour ago, but she was already late for work so I didn't get time to see them very well, especially since it was daylight. It may look "ricey," but I hope not. Besides, she's a chick...she can have rainbow lights in her car lol.

They'll be more vids to download next week after the autoX this weekend!
Since we'll have some MovFast members coming, I hope to mount the bulletcam to your cars...(I get bored of seeing it on mine)
Roof mount, interior rally style, side view, rear view, bumper view, tire view, suspension view etc.whatever ya want. (with audio of course:))
Yes, if people really get into videos here, we might want to have another section for you (us) download freaks. (automotive related of course)
I've got the 7 episodes of 2004's Top Gear vids. If you want a copy let me know. (They'll only fit on a DVD and are compressed for viewing on PC)

Davis, where do you mount your mic to get clear sound...we have mounted in the engine compartment and by the exhaust, and both times it was somewhat distorted. Also, you can only watch so many auto-x videos in a row. I like auto-x, so don't get me wrong, but I would like to see some more of your car, especially over 35 MPH or accelerating for more than 2.43 seconds at a time. Like the video of your son, for instance...classic. "vrrrrooooom PSST *giggle*"

I mount the audio mic in the engine compartment and sometimes on the passengers side ac vent. (depends on how much time I have)
I've had pretty good success withn the mic in the engine, not too distorted. I had it in the engne compartment on a Cobra Mustang at Payne and it sounded beautiful, also on the crazy RX-7 which sounded good too.
I agree, watching autoX vids over and over isn't the most exciting thing. (however, we have hit 65mph on the course before :wink: )
I have some video of me zooming around some the the local country roads with no traffic. Came out really well.
I'm going to take some video here on thursday afternoon to test my equimpment before the weekend. I'll see if I have enough time to post some "over 60mph" video online. Stay tuned....

lol...over 60 is pushin it, I don't want you to endanger your life or someone else's. I wanna hear some exhaust mic action on that thing lol. I would love to see that RX-7 footage...I'll trade ya lol. I have some out of car footage of it. I know that we're not supposed to post videos of it, but I'd say trading couldn't hurt....? Was it the white Cobra? Much props to that guy for representing domestic cars so well, as even I didn't think a Mustang would post such good times. As for the RX-7, jesus christ man. :shock:
By the way, check out this EVO. I have seen a lot of cars run this fast, but not without squatting badly and going all over the place.

The mount I have is pretty much made for my little bullet cam. It might mount to a camcorder (universal screw) but the weight of the camcorder is the biggest issue. Smaller the video device the less shake and better quality you'll have. Plus, the larger weight of the camcorder might put it in jeopardy of coming loose. (yikes, imagine that at 60+mph!)
I'll be taking it to the weekends AutoX. (aren't ya going??!!) You can see it in action then.

Sry, but I cannot show video of that event without the owners permission.
"over 60 is pushing it"......Well, I hit 125-130 mph all day long at Mid-Ohio, lap after lap :lol:

ok, you need to post the Mid-Ohio vids pronto. Are you using a Sticky Pod mount? Also, you have a PM.

lol...here's a video of my fiancee's new "7 Color" gauges. The gauges are blue, so when the light shines through them, you just get different shades of blue, green, and purple. The red doesn't shine as bright, except in the needles, and the top of the tach is a little dimmer than the rest of the gauges. I showed the initial cycle of colors, then it shows what they look like after they have had time to get further out of sync with each other. When the gauges look dark, they are red. Her shifter has the same "7 Color" effect, too.
