2011-12 DIR Winter Championship

[eda]

DIR 2011-12 results are now up and running on our new website - www.dropinnracing.com
It's been a bit chaotic with so many new racers, but it's still best 9 of 12 results to count. Best 3 of 12 results for visitors. Looks like those who turn up every week are at a distinct advantage!

Further website developments and improvements to follow.
(Thanks to Stevn Carson & Colin Morrison for photos/videos)

Looks great Ed, thanks for all the hard work.
Hopefully see you tonight for more of the same!

P.S. love the photo by the way - never seen a bigger selection of suspicious looking characters assembled in one place before

Ah good. I'll have another stab at uploading my videos; I've fixed my desktop and router, and learned a bit of video editing, so might have some success this time. Was planning to come up tonight but picked up a cold, so will spend the time on gainful videography!

try sony vegas easy to use and u can get it free with a keygen adobe after afects is awesome hard to use and can also get it free

I settled on Kdenlive (my desktop uses Linux), seems to handle 1080p AVCHD video with aplomb - I'm reducing them to 720p. First upload is currently ruining my Internet connection, could take hours yet...and then the caravan race is next in the queue.

Of course that would be "free" like all that "free" money we can just walk into a bank and demand at gunpoint.
I love "free" things.




Great racing again last night Ed.
Liked the new track layout, bit different and challenging but good fun.

Edit: Stupid Youtoob tags don't work...

Ed, I hope you can embed these reasonably easily.


PS: I'm with Cardnim on software - I'll use an open source application if one is available, and if there isn't, I'll pony up the cash. I think Vuescan (full licence) was the last non-game software I paid money for, a few years ago now, and it's excellent. Even on my Windows laptop, I haven't needed any programs I could not obtain legitimately for nothing. I feel a blog post coming on....

Wee problem with the links there Colin, but here they are for anyone to clicky click...

2WD A FINAL - 21st December (clicky)

CARAVAN CARNAGE RACE (clicky)

Thanks for working on these mate, look really good and the caravan race is priceless!
(...and Ed - it still isnt a caravan - its clearly a sweetie tin on wheels!!!)
