Windows Media:

These are high rez 720X480 videos, they are 5 minutes long and about 100mb each. I also am making a low rez version which I will post later.

I want to thank everyone involved in the making. Hope you all are having a good one!

Yup that is the magic of Hollywood:) What doesn't make sense when you are doing it, can totally make sense when you watch it after some editing :)

what exactly do you mean by that? the link is broken, or when you go to that page you can't see the video?

You might want to edit out that stop sign you all just cruised through.

Otherwise it is very good. 95% of broadcast quality.

maybe its just my works firewall. the apple link pulls up the page, but never finishes loading and the .wmv link doesnt do anything when you click on it or right click to "save as." but it sounds like its working for everyone else, so i cant wait to watch this when i get home :)

I would ask what other format to put it in, but I have it in both. It just goes to show how hard it is to get something distributed on the net and have everyone on the net be able to see it. I guess I could do a flash video encode.... But then again, everyone needs flash 9 to do that...

I can watch these cars drive all day. I love the footage shot from the front bumper looking down the road and up at the other MM. Very Nice.
