That's entertaining!

He's pretty much got the same video/telemetry setup I've got (MiniDV camera, wide angle lense, and a RacePak) though his stuff looks to be a bit newer than mine. I wonder why my video looks so much worse.

'Course, I've also got a noisy connection for the RPM signal on my car that bounces the virtual tach around, and a crap load of wind noise, which doesn't help the production quality much.

Edit: I just noticed that other guy has an HD MiniDV camera... nevermind, that makes a huge difference.

That's pretty good.

Also, the concept of that site is also pretty awesome.

After installing Flash 10.1 (still in Beta), I can actually watch this on my laptop. Flash 10.1 includes hardware acceleration so if you have a decent (supported) video card and a relatively slow processor, it's a god sent for high res vids. The video is velvety smooth now.

So the "Hitler finds out ... " meme is way overdone, but I thought this one was good.

Hitler finds out about Ken Block switching to Ford.

Just about all the "Hitler finds out" makes me laugh.

BTW if you haven't seen that movie Downfall then do. It is really good (if you don't mind subtitles).

Thank you so much! That was the most annoying part of coming here on my iPhone. Yeah, it switches over to the YouTube app and I can come back, but it's so much less annoying when they are embedded.
