Syonyk 12-09-04 10:30 AM

Hey, nothing wrong with buying the DVD. Much better than just downloading it.

Ahh thast what it was, my bad thanks again.

Fatman0203 12-09-04 11:02 AM

Whoa! Wheres or on what is this thing being served on? 1kib per second download!

Syonyk 12-09-04 11:19 AM

It's not being "served" from anywhere... it's being served from everywhere, or at least all people who are downloading it or have finished downloading it and are seeding it.

BitTorrent. Google it. You'll learn.

And it generally speeds up once you have a bit of it down to "trade" out for other pieces.

www.bestmotoringvideo.com go find yourself an online vendor.

Fatman0203 12-09-04 12:16 PM

How many people are on this? Its soo slow!

Syonyk 12-09-04 02:02 PM

*shrug* 41 seeds, 166 peers. I'd tend to say that's a pretty good ratio right now.

"Hey, neat, we can get something for free instead of paying for it!"
"Hey, man, this free thing is really slow, what's up with that?"

Seriously. Quit complaining. And it's probably at your end anyway (firewall, NAT, etc).

-=Russ=-

Whizbang 12-09-04 02:24 PM

yeah, bit torrent bites the big one. I am downloading at 0 - 1 kib. 167 hours to go!

My end? Ive got Bussiness DSL , download is 12mbs and upload is 5mbs. I even shut down the firewall but it didnt seem to do anything. w/e its free, and its almost done (24 hours later) but its almost done. Thanks!

Syonyk 12-11-04 12:58 AM

And most likely your ISP packet filters the stock BitTorrent ports.

Sorry, it's at your end.

Within a minute on my main torrent box (configured to avoid most problems with ISPs), I was pulling it down at over 20k/s, with nothing to seed out. From previous experience, had I let it run for a few minutes, I would have been pulling over 80k/s. It's a very well seeded torrent...

BklynRX7 12-11-04 11:43 PM

Im now seeding it on bittorrent and hosting ti on my own ftp. here ya go guys

FTP://Expo@24.184.253.156:21

Also if anyone knows where i cna get the option rx7 video or any other rotary related motoring videos i would greatly appreciate it.

TailHappy 12-22-04 04:17 PM

In case it helps anyone, I found a copy on WinMX. But I had the same problem, video but no sound. Used AVIcodec (freeware) to show what codecs are required, and it pointed me here for the necessary audio codec:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...group_id=66022
Now there's video and sound. :)

And for the record, I'm one of those people that like to watch it first. If it's good, I'll buy a copy, to support the cause and so that I have a perfect copy of it....

Fatman0203 12-22-04 04:32 PM

It was alright, Im glad I didnt buy it cause I would have been disapointed. I expect alot more.

855m0n0 01-06-05 03:21 PM

It is a drift video.... what did you expect. There really isn't enought to drifting to have a full video about. Drifting is VERY elementary and relies on very basic race car driving skills. I think it is important to know how to do it so that when you are going around a turn and your car gets out of whack you don't lose too much time over it. It might also be valuble for taking bad lines to pass lappers in turns. But other than that it is really just a way for ricers to show off to people that don't know how to control a car.


Now, drifting a motorcycle, that takes some skill. I watched Kevin Swantz do that around Road ATL on a Super Motard bike and still get an awesome lap time. I can drift a car in my sleep. Getting my race bike to drift and not lose time, around the track is something I have yet to do to my satisfaction.
