Default Alrighty guys heres my turbo miata in action

First time on track with the turbo so please be nice

http://gallery.me.com/ncahill#100038

Ill be uploading more sessions as they get imported to the macbook. Intercooler pipes kept falling off, i felt i wasn't being nearly as consistent as i could be without the turbo. Much learning is still needed but i felt its my time to share.

Enjoy!

seriously dude, if you want people to see it you're going to have to host it somewhere like youtube or streetfire so we can see it. I'll bet the majority of us dont have mobileme accounts.

Nice dude. That HKS sounds better on your car than it did mine! How much psi are you at, maybe thats why. Great videos man, I personally liked passing the mustangs.

The quality is much worse and the upload time take forever. The most annoying part is the length that can be uploaded.

Isnt that a working link? It seems to be working fine for me on my computer.


Edit:
This should be a direct link to the video section of my gallery and should put you a click away from 3 different videos:

Good, I ******* hate Mac. I hav Quicktime, but it still wouldnt play for me.

Good videos. Do you have a light flywheel or something? Lots of gear whine, which I like.

Stupid Rustangs, move out of the way!

A. Learn how to encode videos to retain quality.
B. Its a 10mb max file size, it does not take forever.
C. Length is a product of size and quality of video. 10 minutes in 10mb is usually the limit for quality/time compromise.

I use windows movie maker and have no issues retaining quality and staying under the max file size.

Will that film reel be super 8 or 16mm? My 16mm projector needs a new lamp. If you'd like I can transfer that film reel to a betamax tape!

I'll probably just convert it to laserdisc.
