Looks like the same writing on the screen as before. Vid is a bit longer though. Really nice engine sound. Use DivX or MS WMV9 and stick it up on putfile.com

I've been meaning to make a "rally" video along some backroads in my Rover 216GTi, I might get out and do one today.

Last week I did two jumps over hump back bridges and I was just cursing I didn't have my camera in the car at the time!

I'm getting nothing! Its trying to open in quick time but I don't have as uptodate a version as you obviously.

Anyone else got same problem?

Make sure you are getting the whole file. Use a download manager such as getright. Make sure you have the codec installed from the link I mentioned to Xvid above.
Then right click the file and choose "open with" and select Windows Media Player and tick "always open files of this type with this selection".

I did get to 100 lol, that's the next part of the video. Then I overtook another 2 things in a silly place (if you know the roads here) but I had such momentum lol, I kinda had to. Nothing coming tho, so it was fine. But yeah I had to stop it there to keep it under 2Mb

Yeah mine sucks up the Megs too chris. Put it this way, that video is 21 seconds long, and originally from the camera it's 26Mb lol. The full length video which is 2mins 43 seconds, is 203Mb!! But I didn't see the point in me posting a video of me following him for a while before I went past him. Bit boring like!

Nah I would like to see him throw a banana skin out the window! It would give the drubbing he got some context!

Yeah! Well, for you guys anyway lol.

I didn't get the throwing of the bannanna skin on video, but that's when I thought right, I am gonna kick ur arse, and I'm gonna get it on vid so then I started recording. Bannanna skin didn't hit me car, it just annoyed me, and I over-exagerantly swerved around it when it landed infront of me, cuz.....um.....I can Very Happy

Hmm well no 20 foot jumps, but I did actually leave the ground a few times. Definitely at around 1:40 in the clip and at the humpback bridge at around 2:47

The camera position wasn't great it's more pointing up at the trees I know. I'll make a proper mount for it soon hopefully.
