Due to the fact that speed isn't carrying WRC coverage this year, my access to material is limited.

If ANYONE can supply ANY rally footage from this year (WRC, Pro America, anything) in a raw format for me I would really appreciate it.

I'll pay for the cost of a DV tape and shipping if needed.

Thank you,

I'll second this request for raw footage, I have a fast webserver that it could be posted to.

Even a compressed version would be ok - I just need my WRC fix.

BTW - Kevin, nice work on the highlight edits on your site. Very well put together. I have all of them on my iPod. Do you have any higher quality (and non-mpg) versions of them so I could get them into iPod format without having to demux the mpeg tracks?

Kuth678

What format would you like?

Menik

For the sake of size, h.264 set to the highest quality and 640x480 resolution would be ideal.

...that is unless you wouldn't mind uploading the raw DV to my server, in which case this should probably be discussed over private messages.

This thread has all the required goods for monte carlo. One kind fellow even has it on a personal server to dl, no torrenting required. I, for one, have enjoyed your vids immensely over the last year. thanks

Thanks vaj!

I'm downloading all three days coverage now, I'll post them to one of my webservers for anyone who wants them either tonight or tomorrow.

Okay, the videos are up, and FYI, they're in Divx encoded avi files. I dunno about windows people but if you're on a Mac, you'll need VLC to play them (http://www.videolan.org).

The thing that kills me about this whole deal. they showed WRC corverage at 11pm on Sunday here on the east coast. Sometimes on saturday at 12 am. Yeah they really needed to drop rally to make room. Whateva.

Does anyone know if they is an overseas channel for cable or direct TV so that we can see the coverage. I acutally miss Nicki Griest's voice.

Now there's something you don't hear every day

Menik

So Kevin, any word on those less-compressed versions?

Kuth678

I've received all 3 days for the Monte rally. I'll start working on a new video soon I hope. Hard to balance time between, work, rallyvids, and World of Warcraft

Does anyone know if the WRC site streams any of the races or anything like that. Or anywhere on line for that matter? I am sick of this NASCAR crap all over the TV and radio.
