good footage Travis, a few critiques, I hope you don't mind:

1) when you save the footage/edit make sure to use the highest quality settings available every step of the way or it gets blurry when it's uploaded especially.

2) music is okay before and after the races, never during but if you want to make what I call a "music video" turn the music way down so we can hear the cars. I'll download the mp3 if I like the music

maybe you can at least do a no music version of this? I'd enjoy that 10x more.

I was told it runs mid 10's last night but it sure didn't look like it out there to me, maybe mid/low 11's at best.

thanks Chris I'm still learning you do have a good point about the tunes i like them thou ill turn it down on the next one and see how it is or have it fade in and out with the races and as for the video its self i need a better camera mine really doesn't do well at night and when i convert it from a MOV. file to an MPEG. it loses a little quality

You should download Yamb to convert to .mp4 it will lose zero quality.

If you want to see a better quality, use Vimeo, Video Sharing For You to upload as a HD clip. Youtube doesn't allow HD and makes a mess out of the quality...


BTW you all have probably noticed the "Watch in High Quality" link below the youtube video window. If you don't see that, just add &fmt=18 behind the original link. Copy/paste that into the web address for example, speedemon's video link would look like:

I never jumped.The hands came down and I took off.Mellon wasn't ready the first two times but I didn't know that so when the hands came down I was gone.BTW Thanks for the raping.lol

[Mellon]

yeah the flagger would point at me and say "you ready" then at and say "you ready" and drop his arms all in 2 seconds. I didn't have time to raise the RPM so I just sat there. He did that crap twice in a row and finally he got the hint that you have to wait until the person says "yes I'm ready or nods or something"

but it was fun anyway

[TurboMike]

Yeah I noticed in the vid, no rpm's but figured you were gonna just roll out anyway. lol

[ll7modified]

roll out on big daddy. yea
