I can put it onto a cd if youre really desperate to see it like lol, that overtake was one of the best bits, the other was when i overtook the lorry you see in front of me later on, but the camera slid off the dash   worth it for comedy value alone

next attempt is clearing some of the junk off my laptop, installing pinnacle on there, and recording directly from the cam, i can do all the titles and music, special fx on my desktop

im after an effect like this...

i need another webcam though, ive already got two laptops! , the plan is to make something like www.getawayinstockholm.com (adhering to the local laws of course ;) ) and have a bumper cam - i figured webcams would be ideal for this purpose, one at the front and one at the back, usb extension leads would be routed and come in through the windows and into the laptops, one on the passenger floor and one on the back seat floor

what do you think?

i know this is well off topic, feel free to move my post

just get it up and running for may mate

What time does it finish?  As I have work the next day.

 

Offcourse everyone is welcome

Its your club

Just go when you feel like it

I am working next day also but as long as i am home by 0230 i should be ok LOL

cool well can we either convoy down together or car share. 

then again if I car shared I would have to come back up the road well past my bed time.  02:30 is far too late for me.

If anybody else is going and coming back up at a decent time then we could share?
