OK, The kids finally came through and I forced them to burn me a copy of the CD they did as a final class project. They got out of school early for the trip. They were graded on the project. I need someone who can copy and burn them for others to volenteer. There may be a small fee. We'll work this out. But remember, This was a class project about the building of my car and the event. And it was done by kids. Maybe someone can host it on their web site.

I can't believe 24 people looked at this and no one was even interested enough to post a comment. I'm kinda proud of the crew. There is some good footage of all the events from a kids perspective.

BTW: I pulled this from the bottom of the page.

I want to see it. Can you post it online somewhere? If you DIVX encode the video the final size won't be very large at all for a 12 minute video.

It's not that I'm not interested in this--I think it would be a really neat thing to watch. But I have no clue how to burn CDs. Sorry!

Mer

You should have mentioned that is VIDEO not music...
And hell yes, I want a copy!

How big is it?
Maybe we can host it here on the site...

cheers,

Jeroen

I just got to the 'puter. Where is my copy? Who do I have to kill? Why did this take so long? Hi kids!

Ya-rooon! send me your address. If anyone can figure out how to make it availible to all of us you can. I'm techno challenged!

BTW: this is video with music and sound! some of the music on this video is off of the official WCC 04 Sound track!!!

If that ain't COOOL!

Id burn DVD's for ya, but cant... dont have DVD burner

I'll be waiting to see it!

If I can help in any way to disperse it, I will...

Slits has a DVD-R Burner with Nero Burning Software - Will that work? It's a cheapie. I would give it a try anyway.

I want a copy!

Rich,
We don't have a DVD burner. But it should fit on a CD.

What format is it currently in? DVD, Tape, CD?

If you can get me a copy of the tape in the format that I sent you, I can bring it over to the computer and put it on a CD or on the web.

There has to be a way to make this work.


Can't wait to see it!

It's on a CD.

Send it to me. I'll do it. I'll send a PM to ya.

The deal is done. I'm sending it out to Mark. McMark to you! "The boy has skills." (gone in 60 sec.) Besides he pm'ed me first.

I'm giving the kids one more chance to burn my some copies today. They have girl friends now and no time for dad. If it don't happen today the one and only copy outside of the original is heading to California. This video is not worth paying for but mark will be using his equiptment which is expensive and does wear out, CD's and cases cost and postage costs. So hard copies will come with a price. We'll cross that bridge later. Maybe He has a way to post it or host it here or someplace. I can build cars but I'm challenged when it comes to things like this.

Rich, thanks for the offer.
I'll wait for Mark to get the CD first.
Hopefully we can put it online for everyone to download it
That would save a lot of hassle and cost for everyone

cheers,

Jeroen

OK, an update here. I was playing with my wifes computer this morning. (no one ever gets up around here on the weekends..zzzzzz bunch of slackers!) Anyway, I figured out how to install it on her desk top.

Can I email a file like this? I clicked on the properties and the file is 112 MB What ever that means.

Also she has a CD-R! If I could figure out how to burn CD's myself that would be coooL! Some people are still on dial up.

We don't need no stinkin kids!

Hey Rich, I want one!! Sounds like a great project for the kids. Hopefully it will be posted so we can just download it.
Geoff

112 MB For dialup connection, it would be like trying to pass an elephant thru a 1/2" pipe - an all night download (and prolly all day too!).

Even if you have cable or DSL, that would be a LARGE file to email. Most ISPs for us normal folks would have a 2 - 10 MB mailbox.

You would need a high speed connection, FTP software and upload it to someone's server.

I am not a 'puter geek, but........, 112 MB

I'm trying to email it to McMark as I type this. It's gooooiinnnggg reeeaaalllyyy slllooowwwww...... It will probably crash his mail server.

If you can get a v8 in a 914 you can burn a cd on your wifes computer. I am computed dumb as well but it isnt that hard. Look for the program that runs the burner ahead nero is very common. Start it up and just select disc copy feed the discs in the right drives and away you go. You can play with it and get it to do a simulation to figure out best speed. If you need help you can ask me or the real computer people here. Dial up just isn't going to like moving that much info.

Hey Rich, I have an FTP site that you could send it to and then I can burn it to DVD or CD and even label it with fancy a$$ labels. The media I use is blank white and I have a printer that prints directly on the CD. Let me know if you run out of options, I can take care of it for you. It wont time out on the FTP.

Send me the link or whatever. My wife asked if anyone had an FTP. I'll send it. Wife offered to show me how to burn a CD too. One way or another well get this thing passed around.

Rick,

PM Sir Andy, he can set you up with FTP upload permission to the clubsite

cheers,

Jeroen

I agree. Upload it to the clubsite so "they" can share it. It will be much faster with a link from the BBS to the same server.

Tried it. need a pass word.

I'll drop him a note.

If you're on dialup, just send it to me. It'll be faster.
I don't mind doin' all the work. I'll get it online as well as make it available to anyone on CD with fancy labels on them and everything.

I tried Scotts FTP. Got kick out. So I'm mailing it too Mark.

I'm going to be out of town all week next week for work. (Monday through Thursday) Home Thursday night to install the relay and wiring for the new cooling fans and replace the distributor cap, rotor and spark plugs on the Alien. Then Sandy and I hit the road for Lake Whitmore and the MWC early Friday morning. I don't have any time to mess with this anymore today. Mark will handle all the details and distribution.

Mark, It's up to you. Do what ever you want with the thing. I'm out of here.

You can count on me. I'll need to look at it, but I'm hoping I can offer DVDs. Maybe include some slideshows of peoples pictures on it. Could be really cool.
