You sure about that. With the price of the dollar these days, you're getting it cheaper than us!

Enjoy. Movie link to follow...watch this space...

Here it is:
RapidShare: Easy Filehosting

Was that movie supposed to have some sort of extension on it? It is just a "file" when I download it.... how do I view it after getting it off rapidshare?

Just run it with Media Player or something similar. No extension.

Not working for me either...even used VLC player, which picks up a variety of extensions. What type of file is it supposed to be?

Not sure what to tell you guys. I just downloaded it, and ran it with VLC and it worked perfectly. Are you not seeing it with VLC or is it just not running? What version of VLC are you using?

^ gspot says it's an FLV (flash) file so you'll need a player capable of playing them. I have media player classic with the appropriate codec which plays it.

also some other free players:
FLV Player - Free software downloads and reviews - CNET Download.com
Free FLV Player. Download the Applian FLV Player

Here's an interesting snapshot from the vid... gear: S5 and it shows the force distribution at each wheel I believe... he also pushed past 140mph pretty easily.

And here's a snapshot of the eject button on top of the dash. ;) No paddle shifters though.

Where did you download the file from originally? Perhaps you should just try loading it to youtube. I'm even running several different editing programs...the file may be corrupt :dunno:

Not corrupt. The guy above managed to play it just fine. Get the latest version of VLC. Personally I can't stand youtube.

Good catches. There are a few of them in the movie. That's why I uploaded it. The 'eject button' is one... although look carefully. It's not a button but a knob that turns. My guess is that it might be boost control and there are two of them. Not sure about paddle shifters. Some scenes he's in 3rd gear (S3) and others S5, but we never see him take his hands of the wheel.

Hey btw, what program did you use for the screen grabs?
