-Can anyone help me finding the video clip from TopGear where they are testing VW Lupo ?
It is just great listening to they guys comparing the "car" with Ferraris, Lambos etc.

That discovery channel clip of the F40 is hot. I remeber seeing that on TV a long time ago. I think the 911tt and ZR-1 were on the same program. Anyone know where i can get more of that show? |

Does anyone have the video of the Ferrari drive where an F50 is going aboit 130 through traffic and then onto an onramp. It starts out with a 328, 355, and F50 racing from a toll, then its just a ride and drive, about 20 megabytes I found the video once but forgot to save and never found it again. |

Harlan -
Weird, about that email bounce. I see them all up there, will get them onto the public side soon (let folks have some fun dl'ing the ones already posted before we throw more out there) send me the Lambo and Pcar stuff too, I don't really have a disk space or bandwith limit, so if anyone is interested, we can share them as well.

Yeah I wasn't sure if they were saying it was too much of a car for them to handle or that they don't like it. I like to think it was the first idea. Regardless good videos. |

Man, I just watched that F1 vs F50 video several times in a row. What a cool video. Only thing is that I was surprised at some of the jabs TopGear made towards the F50.

Ben,
I couldn't reply to your email I got the following error:
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at epimetheus.hosting4u.net.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
<[email protected]>:
Here is the message that I sent:
I sent all the ferrari video's I had, I guess I had less than I thought (about 25). I
have probably 20 more or so, mostly porsche/lambo. Let me know if you want
them also, I didn't check if you already had the ones I sent, I also didn't
check if any of mine are dups. I also have the top gear 1 & 2, but I'm
pretty sure you had those so I didn't send them (50meg). I also have 2
large videos "911 stockholm getaway.mpg" is 110 MB and "Getaway Paris II.avi
is 62MB. I'd be happy to send you any that you want, just let me know.

That 355 driver at the x-cross is funny. You can almost see how his behavior changes as the adrenaline dumps into his system and he starts making stupid mistakes and gets erratic. But I have to hand it to him, at least he is saving that kind of stuff for an autocross and is learning the car so he does not kill anyone on the streets with that thing.
Great viddys man! |

Brian, you can download quicktime. I agree, the mclaren is my ultimate dream car, i think it look so good and performs well, it has a bit of body roll though, but i'd live with it. I hope that one day i will see ralph lauren driving one of his, he lives about 10 miles away. Hw brought one of his two to miller motorcars one day, i wish i was there. |

Top Gear is awesome... thanks, Tim and Ben.
The McLaren F1 has always been my ultimate dreamcar... but I had never seen some of what is in that video! Amazing how ahead of its time that car was. But a gold-lined engine compartment? That's a bit silly, IMO.
The 360 Challenge series *looks* awesome; unfortunately, my Windows Media Player doesn't recognize the codec, so I get no sound. (I hate Windows! I wish everyone used QuickTime or MPEG.) I'll have to find some machine that can play it. The Challenge series looks like sooo much fun.
Thanks again, guys! |

Tim -
It's capable of accepting 1.5mb/sec (T1 direct into that box), but if you are on a cable modem or DSL your upload speed is probably capped at ~15k/sec. only thing you can do is be patient, let it run overnight. We can look forward to many more tommorow. ;)

With thanks to TimN for providing the material, I've begun to post his collection of videos up onto the 'net for everyone's enjoyment.
I'll post more links as we progress in getting them up, in the meantime let's begin with these.
If you are on dialup, they make take sometime to get to you, as some of these run 10 mins in length.
