Aw damn, sorry bud. I thought MP4 would've been the preferred file type. I can convert to something else, if that's easier for you.

Eventually I'm hoping to piece together enough interesting drifts to put it all together in to one video, the only issue will be size... The files are 1080p at 60FPS with 5.1 audio... They're massive files.

I have file converters for everything from avi - mpg's and moves them to flv or anything in detween.  If you can get me a full size video something a bit longer even in the high def, I can at least do a direct download for people. 

I'd do it myself, but I have not had time to turn the system on in a few days and still don't know how to make video's. 

If Graeme has an easy way for you to get it to him, Graeme once you get the file just toss it up and I'll download it and put it on the club server.

No worries, thanks guys but I'm good with converting video files. The file type is good, it's my player that isn't.

Dave, the file is up and is 2 posts back if you want to check out what Tristan did.

 Just two quick side notes, I had to right click and save target to desktop, then had to open it in vlc media player as my copy of Windows Media player choked on the audio.

Sorry. Would've done a Duke video but unfortunately it didn't have enough power to spin the tires...

Sorry, but smoking tires doing donuts is as retarded in a game as it is in real life.

Let's see Gretchin racing on a track, real or otherwise!

Can do later. As spinning the tires in that confined of a space was harder than one might think. The Fiero has a tendancy to bite down and launch (Probably due to the sticky 265's out back), which in a box that is only a few feet longer than the Fiero itself, makes it really hard to start a spin.

As for real life, you're just old I guess. Smoking tires is still among my favourite time/money wasters.

Heh heh, it's got nothing to do with age. I thought endlessly burning tires was retarded when I was 16, and that was almost 40 years ago. (Geez, maybe I am old!)

You were 16 almost 40 years ago? I call shenanigans. That should read "almost 140 years ago".

And fine, maybe it's not because you're old, but clearly there's something wrong with you.

Those are stupid people though, the act itself doesn't make it stupid. That'd be like saying because some people blow their engines after tuning, tuning of all kinds is thus a stupid activity.

Siiiick. We are so having a stock Fiero and lightly modified (B-Class?) event one of these days. If memory serves, we are up to five members, so it'd be a good race.

Woohoo. Nice one. I have an old wheel, unfortunately it's
for the original XBOX and PS2, so it's basically useless
now. :(

However, I got a Kinect for Christmas, so I was able to
drive without a controller. It's a bit of a gimmick for
Forza, but it was fun to try. The head tracking can be
annoying too, so I turned that off as well.
How much horsepower can I have and still go to heaven?

Ken, I am sooooooooooo jealous of you right now...

I haven't driven with Kinect yet (My TV is only about a foot and a half away from where I sit) but I was able to get the head-tracking, which is amazing in first-person. You are right though, in literally every other view, it makes things unplayably hard. lol
