    Another try at a rally type VX video

    I really hate vids 'cuz I'm not very good at capturing, editing, or saving 'em. I don't have the knowledge, software, or a powerful enough PC to do it right. As a result I haven't picked up my vid cam at all this year until yesterday. When I try I learn. When I fail I learn. I guess that's the way to do it.

    I think this is my best effort so far. It's a kinda rally style vid which I'm semi-happy with. Check it out if you're bored.

    Two sizes, same vid. WMV files only.

    1:00, 7.5 mb, 320x240-

    Thanks, guys. I'm only goin' 'bout 40-42 mph. I did top 50 on one stretch and with a slight turn of the wheel I could feel it starting to break loose. There's not much margin for error and I didn't wanna end up in da woods wit da deers. Plus it's a public road and I could very easily meet an on coming driver on a blind curve. Yikes! That wouldn't end up good.

    I imagine when fall really hits the leaves are six inches deep on that road. I'll see if I can get there when we get a good snowfall. That'll be fun.

    that would be fun...

    maybe have a friend go ahead of you and use walkie talkies...
