    Let me know if you get it. It's my favorite race of the season. I know a few other people who didnt see it. I bet they would like to also. Can we buy it?

    David/Robert, I think Nicola records them all on his computer, you might reach out to him and see if he has that one...

    I think Niccola said he only got the first half of the race. Its useless without the end.

    I tried to follow Tillmans link but it didnt work and quite frankly I'm afraid to download anything. My computer crawls the way it is.

    You need a program like Azureus to download a torrent. The download torrent button you pressed in Tillman's is just the instructions for your program to get the file from sharing users. You can't get a virus from it. If you use the torrent in the link I posted, the quality is good. I've alredy downloaded that version. It's an ITV (UK) rip and good quality.

    Going to try tommorow.
    The only torrent I'm familiar with are the bad ones; As in "The Shining" where the kid says to the mom; "Danny's not here anymore Mrs Torrents".

    Which "player"? Did you open the torrent you downloaded? If you just double click that, it should open up the downloading program automatically. If not, manually open the program and then double click on the torrent.

    I tried several ways; double clicking on it, downloading the file and clicking it, downloading the player provided (Dx??), using a window thats apparently loaded on my computer to automatically select a player already installed, et al. I end up with a message that Windows cant run it.
    Now where did I put that hammer ?

    Have you already downloaded the file? It's not clear what you're saying. Players are what play the file, like Windows Media Player, Real Player, Quicktime, etc. You need a bit torrent downloading program like Azureus. Download the program and download the program through it: http://azureus.sourceforge.net/
