[MikesMerc]

HOLY COW!!!! This is one incredible video!! Some of you have seen it already, and some of you have not. For those that did not have a chance to see it the first time, I've linked it up on our Motor City Marauders webpage. This video is a MUST SEE for burnout fans!!

Go here, and click the link in the middle of our webpage. Billy's video link is clearly identified: Motor City Marauders (http://www.motorcitymarauders.com/)

Enjoy!!

[RoyLPita]

I want to download this on my work computer. PLEASE, don't pull the plug at midnight!!!!

[MikesMerc]

No problem....I'll keep this hosted as long as I have enough bandwidth. As it sits, I have plenty to spare, so have fun!!

[teamrope]

What ^^ he ^^ said...("cept mines on the home PC) :)

[MarauderMark]

After all i had to do to get that Pauls awsome video to work i d/led billies and it wont play .i guess i'll have to wait for vhs version :mad2:

[HwyCruiser]

i've watched the video several times, can't get enough of it.

I play it my HP Media Center PC piped through a 36" Wega surround sound TV, cranked up loud enough to make the children run and hide. Oh yeah!

Metallica and BillyGMan smoking the tires off his Marauder... now that's the sound of war!

[Tallboy]

Keep this in mind while you're watching the video. That Marauder is his only car. That's not just some weekend toy/garage queen [like mine]. That car never gets a day off. Up and down the hills/highways in southern Connecticut every day. If that thing lets go, Billy's on the shoeleather express. It takes a lot of guts/confidence to do a video like that. I just can't stop watching it!!!:burnout:

[MikesMerc]

LOL....yep I'm on my 8th time watching it:D

[teamrope]

Just saw it, and Day-um!

Anyone ever tell Billy that smoking causes lung canser? :burnout:

[mpearce]

Yep...that vid is absolutely BADA$$!!!

Nice job Billy!

Mike, thanks for being the host so others who missed the thread could see!

That is one wicked sick burnout video.:bows:

I just can't stop watching it!!!:burnout:

Man o' man!!!.....Billy has really big cojones to do those stunts on his ONLY car!

Totally SICK burnout! I can't stop watching it.

I can't believe how THICK the smoke is! :eek: (NO chemical additives)

Billy you should check with Chlorox anyway about a sponsorship! :D

[bigslim]

I told you Billy what I thought when I saw it at Trilogy last week. Very nicely done.

[BillyGman]

Thanks everyone. I'm very glad that you like my video. And Tallboy is correct on that. That Marauder of mine is all that I have in the way of automobiles. And as those of you who have noticed how I put that disclaimer in the begining of the video, I did that for a very specific reason. You see alot of burnout videos on the net. Some of them are really good, and some of them are lame. Out of the ones that are good, I'm sure that some of them were done w/out artificial means of smoke production, while I'm also sure that some were done w/those things. Well I cannot speak for others who put videos together that you see in various places on the net, but I can speak for the video that I've done which Nathan, and now Mike have been good enough to put on the net, by stating, that I've never used bleach, oil, nor water on the asphalt, nor on the tires before or during ANY of my Marauder burnouts EVER. That would be fake, and cheap in my book.

I luv burnouts, and I'll fry the tires off my car again if anyone ever thinks that I've used any chemicals to do what I did in this video.And if the party in question doubts my claims, I'll do that for them live in person if they can be at an appropriate place for me to do that. But if anyone's going to call me on that, then they also better be prepared to cough up the $$ for the tires too. Okay, let me climb off of my soapbox now, and say to Mike a BIG THANKYOU for hosting my video. U DA MAN!!!!!! BTW, I went through two pair of brand new tires making this video, and a third set, that were used. For those of you who haven't seen the pics of what was left of the first set of brand new tires after that first burnout in the video that I've posted in other threads, then there they are below. :laugh:

[Haggis]

Well Billy you are getting some rave reviews. So I guess you have finially out done Barry. Congratulations you are the "Burn-Out King".

But I have not been able to watch the video, it gets to 93% download and I keep getting a error message. Oh well, my loss.

Just remember when your at the top there is always going be someone who will try to knock you down. Hang tough Billy you are the Man!! :bows: :bows: :bows:

Hey, I've got an idea...How about a 'BillyGMan Tire' Fund.... :burn:

[RoyLPita]

If Billy drives down to south Fla, I have 5 CVPI rims and tires for him to tear up.

[BillyGman]

Hey, I've got an idea...How about a 'BillyGMan Tire' Fund.... :burn:
Sometimes I think I need a "Billy G" tire company :D

[RoyLPita]

I'm on the east coast, opposite Tallboy.

[BillyGman]

If Billy drives down to south Fla, I have 5 CVPI rims and tires for him to tear up.

OOOOOOOHHH.....that's very tempting.......:hmmm:

[Joe Walsh]

I love it...When you want your tires "burnt up right", call in the expert! :rofl:

[RoyLPita]

anything to get them off of my patio.

[Haggis]

LOL....sounds like you got to watch it after all, uh???? Did you begin the download a second time???

At first I kept getting a error message something about file format?? So I went back to your orginal thread and read where I needed to down load that EMeg.file. After that was down loaded no problem.

Billy do you have a line lock on your car? :burnout:

[BK_GrandMarquis]

That is one insane burnout. I love the shot of the smoking rubber left behind on the street. With that much smoke, better make sure no one is in front when you come flying out of it. hehe :coolman:

[Marauder2005]

Oh poo I missed it :(

[shakes_26]

oh my freakin' god!!!! I love it, those piles of shredded tires smoking... :bows: we're not worthy

The last few shots there with the burnouts through the parkign lot while accelrating, I think thats what made me decide I wanted a Marauder.... I saw similar burnout posts back last year, it must have been you Billy Gman....:D

I assume you run line locs?:cool4:

just freakin' amazing......I'm gonna go watch it again....

[BillyGman]

Oh poo I missed it :(
How have you missed it? All you have to do is use the link that Mike provided to get to his website, and you'll see the link to my burnout vid right there on his homepage. They you just RIGHT click on that link, and then click on "Save target as" and then hit "save" and wait about 12 minutes for the download (assuming you have DSL or cable). And if it will not begin the download for you, then just click on this link below to get the decoder that your PC needs, and after you wait about oneminute for that downlaod to finish, you just go back to the Link on Mike's site, nnad RIGHT click on the burnout link again, and you're good to go.

Billy do you have a line lock on your car? :burnout:
Yes, I now have the Hurst "Roll control" line-Lock set-up on my car (just like it says on my sig;) ).

I see it now, who reads Sigs anyway just a bunch of mumbo jumbo. LOL!!

[CRUZTAKER]

Finally got Electracard to work.

Wow.....:bows:

I'm gonna need an address Billy.....cause I think I need to pass on all of my burnout trophies!:P

The video work is done quite nicely. Good choice of music as well, with the sounds mixed well enough to enjoy all aspects.

Thank you....nicely done.

All I can say is....WOW MAN (http://www.moviewavs.com/cgi-bin/moviewavs.cgi?Cheech_And_Chong =wowman.wav)

[Heavy351]

Dear Mr. "G-Man"

As the president, founder, and sole surviving member of PETRT (People for the Ethical Treatment of Radial Tires), I hereby inform you that you are in violation of the Kyoto treaty and are entirely responsible for setting back our progress on environmental awareness issues at least 25 years.

Do you realize that the blocking of sunlight on this scale is what caused the extinction of the dinosaurs?

Such blatant disregard for the welfare of the unfortunate radial tires shown in your shameless video shows a complete lack of respect for the principles and spirit of the "tread wear" ratings embraced by vast majority of our population. 2 sets of tires completely decimated and for what? 150 yards of driving and some smoke? oh the humanity!

We at PETRT feel that reconciliation for this abuse can start with the forfeiture of the title of the monstrous implement of destruction to our organization so we can continue to research the psychological origins for such behavior.

We appreciate your cooperation.

Sincerely,

PETRT

[Tallboy]

Very few things make me laugh out loud just by reading them. Thanks Heavy351!!!:rofl: :rofl:

Hey Barry, I was wondering if you were gonna chime in here. I definately wanted you to see that video also, cuz I know how much of a burnout nut that you are too. The comments that I've quoted above are quite a compliment coming from you. Thanks pal. ;)

[MarauderMark]

I finally watched it ! :banana: I had to convert it with some advertisement in it but i'm so glad i did .Damn Bill thats is one AWSOME video.
That is totally bad ass.you can't even see the car..when the car took off where did you go into the pass or the future? my kids love it they ask me if i can do that ..Way to represent buddy!!! :2thumbs: :2thumbs: :up: 5 Thumbs up!!!!!

[BillyGman]

you can't even see the car..when the car took off where did you go into the pass or the future?LOL.....actually, after that first burnout of that video was finished, the steel belts were haning out of the tires, and I actually heard them flying around!!! I was glad that they didn't damage the fenders. But I had to hobble the car on into a small parking lot nearby where I proceeded to change the tires. Good thing I brought two extra rims with tires on them. my kids love it they ask me if i can do that ..Way to represent buddy!!! :2thumbs: :2thumbs: :up: 5 Thumbs up!!!!!Thanks Mark....yeah, I figured that a video as sick as this one was would really get our Marauders "on the map" in burnout land.....you should read some of the quotes from guys on the Mustang and Cobra boards after they've seen this vid. In addition to making comments about the video, they also often mention how cool Marauders are.

[Bradley G]

Thank you for the CD Billy,

As I said , You Got a group of mustang guy's all fired up in Chicago(to see the vid) ! I have to get the word out ! Spead the disease!
Bradley G
Hey Billy, I have got to ask you one thing ,Well two if I may,;How did you know when to let / off? did you see sparks?and did you finally hook?:lol: :burn: :bump:

[BillyGman]

Hey Billy, I have got to ask you one thing ,Well two if I may,;How did you know when to let / off? did you see sparks?and did you finally hook?:lol: :burn: :bump: Brad, in the first burnout of the vid, I had planned on letting em smoke for about 55 seconds since that's what I wanted to sync the burnout to that song. but as about 48 seconds into the burnout I started hearing a vibration that worried me at first, because I thought it was something in the drivetrain. So I about 2 seconds later as the vibration became more apparent, I let go of the Line-lock button and let off the gas pedal, and just as I did, the I heard the steel belts start floppoing around, and then I was relieved that it was the tires rather than something in the drivetrain.

With the front brakes, or the line-lock on, there's no way the car is going to hook up when you have the gas pedal down about three quarters to the floor like I did. If you look real close, you can see some of the steel belts hanging out of the tires in that small camera window offto the right of the screen as the car is coasting down the street, after the first burnout was completed.

In the second burnout, I had the RPM's abit lower, and I had music CD playing while I was performing the burnout, so that I can watch the seconds, so that I would'nt keep the tires spinning longer than 30 seconds in order to avoid having the steel belts flapping around again.

[Bradley G]

Thanks Billy,
Oems' good for about 30 -50 second burnout thats about four bucks a second plus fuel and crew & & & $ $ $
I wonder how many entries their are?

[Patrick]

Luv the Metallica music!!! But a thought do a poll for the music for the next one!

1. Motley Crews Kickstart my Heart.
2. Prurple Haze.
3. Back in Black
4. Fuel (Metaillica)
5. Ozzy (cray train)

Just a thought!

Just a thought!Okay Pat, that's an interseting topic for me, because I contemplated for along time what song touse for this. i didn't want to bring it up here nefore the video was done, because i wanted to surprise you guys.here's what I think:

#1. Motley Crew's "Kickstart...I'venever heard it. I'll have to check it out...

#2. Purple Haze, (U mean Jimmy hendrix? If so, no way, too mellow for a burnout vid)

#3. Back in Black (no way cuz the music is cool, but that guy's scratchy high pitched voice just doesn't sound macho enough for a muscle car burnout vid).

#4. Fuel..someone sle suggested that, and i checked it out, and found that the tempo of the music is just not steady enough. it jerks around too much IMO.

#5. I like crazy train, but Like I said, iwanted a song that has someone singing with atleast alittle bit of a Macho type voice, and Ozzie never had that. As you can see, i was very particular about what song i wanted for this vid. This thing has been a labor of Luv for me. But I find your suggestions interesting,and thought provoking. I'll have to check out that one that I haven't heard.

[wesman]

Billy cover up your plates for the videos. A pro car thief with a friend at the DMV can get your address & make you sad.

It's a little late for that now since everybody and their brother has a copy of that vid by now. But I never said that I haven't put any $$ into some "special" devices that await would-be car theives, and would ruin their day should they try anything. :D

The "Kick start my Heart" is on the Dr Feelgood CD. And thier was an awsome vid to go with it. Just thinking out loud thats all.

Good, that's god damn right. I spent some $$$$ on special devices too, because I knew I would be modifying this car with expensive parts. Its all money down the toilet if the car is stolen & stripped.

I need to save that for later use!!!!!!!!!
:nworthy:

[gonzo50]

For some reason, I can't open up the file, I stay on connect mode forever and then nothing. :confused: Tried it on the other thread too....same results.
I want to see the video.... :mad2:

Don't feel bad, I have the same problem. :(

[BillyGman]

I want to see the video.... :mad2:Do you guys who are experiencing that problem have dial-up service? That would explain it. If you don't have dial-up, then did you first download the decoder/player like I've been telling people to do? If not, then you get three slaps :fishslap: :fishslap: :fishslap: click on this link below to download this first, and then once it's downloaded, you should be able to download the video (IF you don'thave dial-up service). I also hope that when you're clicking on the video itself, that you ARE RIGHT-clicking, and hitting "Save target as..."

[MM2004]

I had the same issue and kept trying until I was finally prompted to save.
Even with a high speed connection, we are still dependant on the site traffic as to the download speed obtained, IMHO.
Keep trying as I can assure you it is well worth it! :bows:

Billy, My wife wanted me to tell you that she loved how the video was filmed. Does she understand why you did this? Uh, . . no. Jokingly, she said you must be Wilbur and Orville's long lost brother "Aint".
ROTF LMFAO @ that 1!!! ;)

Good Luck!
Mike.

Don't feel bad, I have the same problem. :(

[BillyGman]

I had the same issue and kept trying until I was finally prompted to save.Well you definately will have to right click on the link that's on the Motorcity Marauders webpage, and then hit "save target as.." in order to download a video that's as big as this one is.
Keep trying as I can assure you it is well worth it! :bows:

Billy, My wife wanted me to tell you that she loved how the video was filmed. Does she understand why you did this? Uh, . . no. ;)

Good Luck!
Mike.LOL....yeah, I hear ya......most women will never understand this video nor appreciate it if and when they see it, just as some men won't either. but it definately is a guy thing, so you'll be hard pressed to find any woman who won't think I'm crazy when they watch it (not that I'm not:D ). It's kinda the same thing as how I'll never understand what's so thrilling to women about going clothes shopping (especially for shoes!!). I know a lady who literllay has 94 pair of shoes, and yet she still can nver wait to go back to the mall to buy more! So what makes more sense, wasting your tires to do a burnout vid like mine, or having 94 pair of shoes, and shopping for more? it's probably a toss-up, but shows the vast difference in the genders.

[grand_marquis_g]

That is the best burnout vid ive EVER seen, bar-none.:bows:

[CBT]

Is it just me, or did everyone that downloaded it have to sign up with Compu-serve for a free one-month trial, followed by a 19.95 charge each month unless you cancel it?

[teamrope]

???? I didn't even know Compuserve was still around.

I havn't used them in like 10 years. It never showed for me. :)

[RoyLPita]

If Billy drives down to south Fla, I have 5 CVPI rims and tires for him to tear up.

Cancel this. I needed 4 of the tires for my own CVPI. I'll try to scrounge some more.
