Jimmy - any update on the "Vid"?

Hardware, Software and incompetent operator issues at the moment are delaying progress somewhat. However, as the whole edited version is 4.5Mb I plan to re-edit and post a series of clips (10 - 15 secs long each). These will be posted in a zip file so should be able to post a series of them without being bombed out.

Hopefully should have something by this weekend. Just had another thought that I might have some free webspace with my ISP so might be able to upload and post a link.....

Sorry for the late reply, guys, but just back on-line again.

Thanks for a good afternoon out, and sorry I held all your higher-powered beasts up. You definitely got me back on that last bit of the A689!!!

How 'bout that for a coincidence with the MX5's?? I wish I had a picture of the Corsa, I still smile every time a drive past one thinking about it.

And I think the children have recovered from their brief zero-G moment over that bump coming out of Allenheads. I wonder how the car would have coped with the Eibachs on?

I think my pics broadly replicate Geoff's, so I won't stress my measly 64k connection.

I'll definitely be there for the Saturday of the nat meet. I may be going up there the night before, but I look forward to seeing you there!!

Cheers all,

Pic of 66 when I got back from the Meet. :eek:

Garry,

I'm sure David Attenborough is lined up for a documentary on the wildlife on your bumper. From my experience with the stone, I wonder how many you also have embedded in your radiator??

Cheers,

[Quinten]

Good christ! :eek: Don't they make flies in white?

[fen_l&k]

Of course, a quick spray of water and mine just wiped off

:D

[sixtysixofonehundred]

Yeah - done it again, when I got back the first thing I did was a wash and wax, then jumped in the car on Monday past, to Liverpool - by the time I got back, same same........Jimmy where is the vid???

[fen_l&k]

Yep, I'm waiting with baited breath here for the video....

The rate you pick the flies up Garry, they'll be an endangered species soon!

Are you going to the Sept meet?

Cheers,

[sixtysixofonehundred]

Sorry, no. Disapointed but will be back overseas, sounds like it will be a great meet. Hope the weather holds, and you all have a terrific time. Talking to a guy from Cornwall, when I was down Liverpool, he told me that there is a WRC running around his area.

Hi all, sorry to barge you're thread but i just got a vRS and wouldnt mind meeting up with some other owners - a bit like yourselves by remarkable coincidence. When is the September meet? I'm away on hols from the 4th to the 19th, but if any other date, can i come to play?

Cupid,

I'll probably be driving down from Stockton early on the morning of Saturday 20th. I'm hoping there'll be a few from the North East so we can convoy on down there. We'll arrange something nearer the time.

[CupidStunt(Boro]

Panrix - i think i'll be back by then, just not sure of flight times etc. If i am back i'll certainly join the convoy '10/4 Rubber Ducky' etc. etc.

Are you in Stockton btw?

[CupidStunt(Boro]

hmmm, just thought 'driving to where exactly?' Do you mean the meet in Wales or somewhere else?

[MonkeyHanger]

Howard (Cupid)

The september meet is at Oulton Park, Cheshire, 20/21st September, for the BTCC Race weekend

[panrix2002]

Cupid,

Yep to the Stockton question

[CupidStunt(Boro]

Mark, i am back in time for Saturday 20th, so if we can arrange some sort of meet up, that would be cool.

[CupidStunt(Boro]

Panrix (Mark) was that you heading towards Darlington Back lane this afternoon?

[panrix2002]

If that was you in the fine looking red chariot, then yep

I turned round as quick as poss but couldn't see you when i got to the A66 so just HAD to blast back up the road in disappointment

Regarding your other post - do you mean you want to meet up to wander down Wales way on the 20th? If so, that'd be great

PM me and we'll sort something out.

[sixtysixofonehundred]

Hope you guys have a teriff time - and the Jimmy the video is????? - just as a by the by, whats with the Stars by the Avatars?

[fen_l&k]

Donation level, I believe. Have a quick peek at the member list and you'll see.

[Jimmy]

Right guys help needed. Due to holidays and general laziness I've only just got round to finally uploading the movie clips as promised. For now I've saved a total of 4-off separate clips duration about 10 secs or so and each one is about 200Kb. I've saved them as a zip file but STILL they're too big to upload separately into a post. Any suggestions????

[MonkeyHanger]

Jimmy,

I have 50 meg of almost un-used Ntl webspace if thats any good ?

Let me know if you want to use it and i'll PM you a mail addy to send the clips so i can upload them

[Jimmy]

Geoff, That would be great. Got to be worth a shot.....

[MonkeyHanger]

On behalf of Jimmy, here's some (short) clips from our mad day on roads of the North-East..

Jimmy, if you have any bigger versions of this vid, maybe we could figure out a way to get them uploaded too
