How do we get the video file size down to the right size for posting ?
A couple of minutes of video is alot bigger file than what the site allows for posting.

I have some old video of Parker and Havasu that someone else sent me.
has some shots of the old switzer flying wings and 2 & 3 engine molinaris.

I have the file size set at 25megs .... HUGE

Your files must not have any compression. Try emailing them to me and I'll put them up .... Mark75H@verzion.net

These videos were brought to my attention via a email from Tim Benecker. He found them on a Canadian equivelant of you tube.

They were shot by somebody on Dave Potter's racing team.
Most of them seem to be when Dave Potter was running for the Mercury Factory.

There are shots of the Switzer flying wings in the videos and some shots of the 2 & 3 engine Molinari boats.

This is some of the OPC history in it's heyday that I think Ron & Ted set out to make sure was not lost in a old shoebox somewhere and disposed of.

Enjoy :D

Oh, yeah ... now I remember these videos ... a guy posted the original links on Screamandfly. I think he might feel that this is a copyright violation. The site where he had them was a private site. If you can contact him and get his permission we can keep them up, otherwise we will have to remove them to avoid a possible lawsuit.

I sent an e-mail to Tim, which is who contacted me with the link. To see if he knows who posted the originals and if there is an issue about copyright infringment.
