Awesome Rx-7 Video

I just had to let you know about this Video.

FREAKING AWESOME.

Historical Racing of RX-3's,FB's,FC's,FD's against Skylines of the same years.

Including some HEAVILY MODIFIED ONES.

The Thread from the Lounge is HERE

The Link to get it is HERE

It's a large 183meg file, but worth it. Took me 40 mins to download via my DSL

BY THE WAY, YOU NEED DIVX (CLICK HERE) to see it, it won't play in Media Player.

DivX Info for Newbies.

63.97.109.11 (ftp.zeroglabs.com)

user: rx7
pass: rx7

its in the upload files directory.

RX7vsGTR.avi its a 183mb file.

Its about the rivalry between rotary and skyline in Japan that has been going on since those Japan Grand Prix TS-B race in 1972. So they put the cars against each other in a race.

Not unless you leave it overnight. It is DEFINATELY one the the top 5 Videos I have ever seen for RX-7's. So in my book, it's a MUST have.

By the way, the 7 Kicks *** on the Skylines at the track

cmartinp28,

Go to download.com, search for "ftp" and download a copy of WS_FTP_LE. Install it, and use it to connect to "63.97.109.11" with username and password "rx7". You'll then see the directories with the videos in them, and you can download them all.

Enjoy

No problem. Me too... It's not being all that fast for me though, only running around 300kb/sec. I started a little while ago and still got 68% to go. Ah well, good things come to those who wait

It could be there's too many users connected, I know the lounge guys were having that problem before... I'll let you guys know how it looks once I have downloaded

Oh, BTW, if you guys didn't check out the Best ing videos that JoeD posted, I highly recommend downloading them too. Some amazing footage of RX-7s, Skylines, NSX's, Supras, etc, absolutely tearing it up on the racetrack.

Dude, I just finished the whole video.... let's just say I'm glad I had a box of kleenex on my desk hahaha.

Seriously, I've seen the best ing vids, I've seen a Revspeed vid, and some others... but this is the most insane RX-7 footage EVER!!!

All the cars are just unreal... those heavily modified FDs handle and put down the power like racecars. And that is seriously the sweetest first gen I think I've ever seen in terms of handling footage - that thing looks so neutral and driftable it's amazing. And - what the hell wheels are on that thing?? They're amazing!!

I noticed something funny - when the driver of the Panspeed FD is like 20 car lengths ahead and smoking everyone, everyone else is fighting like a **** to keep up right? He's just chillin; he's playing with the ventilation controls to change the fan speed/temp hahaha!

Anyways, I can't say enough about this vid - those who aren't downloading this are missing out. I'm gonna be watching this all night, until I can't stand it anymore and start playing gran turismo...

PS - We just had a huge RX-7 autocross meet this afternoon, so I'm especially stoked to see this stuff... BTW, careful with the autocross - I pretty much completely wore my tires out in about 3 hours, probably made about 20 runs or so around the track we made. Very fun.
