SimTV's coverage of CTS Race 3 . . .
. . . is now uploaded and will be released to you rabble very soon at simracerhq.
The Texas Nascar Massacre runs for 6'10", and is done in a slightly different style this time. It's 68mb in size, 640x480 at 25 frames per second.
The video is encoded at the lower res of 1.5mbps this time in an effort to keep file size down. A 3mbps version came out at 145mb, which is still smaller the the original uncompressed version of 8.3gb.
Chocolate fish will be emailed to the 1st correct posting naming the artist, album and year it was released of the voice over.
Hopefully the Aussies won't view this video - it's not exactly a glowing representation of quality driving

LOL ! very funny vid that I knew the dings would make it well worth watching.
One thing I notice, is noone slows down for the dings
and alot of people drive straight up the back of another driver because they can't break in time instead of changing their line to go around the other driver.

It almost became tedious recording the crashes ! There were so many. I still left out a few of them, esp single spins, etc. Otherwise the video would run to hours, not minutes.BAZZIL wrote:LOL ! very funny vid that I knew the dings would make it well worth watching.

Its not always that easy Bazz, when you are going flat out and see a crash some times you dont have enough time to do much, and it not like you can just slam the brakes on and stop on a dim.BAZZIL wrote:LOL ! very funny vid that I knew the dings would make it well worth watching.

There is a fine line, you have to balance slowing enough to pick your way through the carnage, but no too much giving people behind you enough time to react to your car slowing down if for what ever reason they haven't seen the ding ahead.ronwest wrote:whats the point you slow for a ding and some ass puts his head up yoursBAZZIL wrote: One thing I notice, is noone slows down for the dings
clutch close boot pray seems to work well
Brake on the straight before it's too late.

Hopefully not too much higher !UnbounD wrote:Awsome Prom!!!
Some very poor driving in there I must say!!!!!!
A couple of cars feature often.
A couple of other feature just as often, but that is more due to bad luck.
Onwards and upwards (if your in team scrumpy its definatly up.... talk about big air )
Interestingly, the physics of the game stopped the 666 Scrumpy car going any higher - it's almost as if there's a height cone over the track.
Anyway, TV3 at 8.30pm - Battlestar Gallactica the mini series It ain't got Lorne Green.

No prob, I was sitting in the control room, sweating profusely, with 3 phones ringing all the time and lots of tantrums (one of the rare weekends I've worked in a while).Skuzzlebutt wrote:Grrrrrrrr!
Prom, whoever at TV3 pulled the plug on the golf during the play off hole needs a damn good kicking. That's TVNZ behaviour and it's not on. Especially not for a weekend news show.
Unhappy of Manukau.
Sorry to go OT
IT WAS NOT ME ! I was only following orders ! Yeah, I know that defence didn't work for the Germans too.

My lips are sealed (due to the cough usual contract clauses). But someone whose job it is to make decisions, made the decision. I'm the (un)lucky guy who gets to implement them.BAZZIL wrote:lol so what went wrong at TV3 spill the beans then
I had a look at the golf for a few mins, then went to tv1 to watch the NZ V8's, then went to play TPTCC
We then had a bit of a juggle timing the news to be able to cross back to the final moments of the shootout, but got there in the end.
But thanks to that, when I came home last night, I had to visit a bottle of wine rather than race in the Sports Car League
Otherwise the racing would've looked a lot like the Texas Nascar Massacre - get out of my way !!!! - which wouldn't have been very nice.

Cop: Are you OK?
Randolph: I don't know. I'm kinda ****ed up in general, so it's hard to gauge.
