You too...I've got them on my website if you want to have a look, but I'd like to show them directly on PH, to save people the bother of clicking across...plus its nice to see them on screen followed by folks comments.

Anyway...

PS. Well done everyone for making a great day, esp to Andy, but next time ask me to help with the map creation ;-)

Luca,

seems ok now - perhaps it was just late, but the formatting code works ok.



You're right, I'll put them on here now...

Been working on the video a little today...there are some excellent bits, especially when both videos (ours and Andy's) are mixed. I'll go as fast as I can, but Chris (video man) has got On Digital in at the moment, who apparantly take priority 'cos they're paying £50k....pah!

Anyway, back to the studio for some more arty editing of BIIRBLE's yellow bonnet (you'll find out soon enough)

Nice pics Steve, I'll get mine off to you this afternoon... (about 10MB worth, are you sure you want that sent over your 56k connection?)

H

Luca,

Are those white knuckles on your steering wheel ?? and are you gritting your teeth ??



Probably...

And very hot feet in the footwell, as I don't drive with flip-flops on.....hehe ;-)

Is there a trailer we can download?




The merest hint of a trailer can be found here...its very small, low quality for the web.
Around 4.3Mb for 5 minutes.

There's lots to do, and I want to do it right...so it'll take time I'm afraid.

Trying to splice the two videos takes long enough, and then choosing which bits to include and which bits to cut, and then what background soundtrack to use, to sufficiently cover the wind noise but to leave the engine noises intact. It's all very tricky you know ;-)

I've put the video on my machine in mono and at 352x240 resolution, takes 20Gb. Had to go out and buy a new hard disk just for this!

Chris is too busy to work his magic on it at the moment, so I'm doing my best with VideoWave. The final version will be great...trust me. It may get spread over a couple of CDs however, but who cares.

PS. Glad you like your bonnet as the intro.

I was waiting for a "Gentlemen and Ladies, please start your engines!"



I like that...hadn't thought of that one....anyone able to email it to me.

I've already got the bit from Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain", and I was going to try and get hold of Murray Walkers "Go...go...go", but we'll see.

Harrigan, and others if you are able, send me your pics (at the highest resolution), either by email or on CD in the post to:
Steve Nesta

Motspur Park
New Malden
Surrey
KT3 6QP.

Andy, were you referring to me in Hinchley Wood....when was that?

I think I've got a copy somewhere, it'll take me a bit of time to get it on CD though (typing in those pesky 0s and 1s) When d'you need it by ?



Don't worry, found a great one from a Nascar website...used in for the first car park sequence when we're all manouevering to get out while Andy holds up the traffic....works great!

As I said in another post, Part 1 is complete (15mins) at 357Mb. Quality is good...now trying to reduce file size to 20Mb for publishing on the web. There will be a CD available, which I should have by the time I see you again.
