    Default Serge's Monster

    These videos were made before the big engine tune up (modifications at that time were: camshaft, bigger turbo, chip, exhaust)

    YESS it's alive! Even more than alive! :twisted:

    it's ... it's...
    i can't find any word that could describe even close to how this car made me feel driving it!

    i need to borrow a videocamera from someone to make a decent video but for the moment this has to do:

    http://www.cuore-sportivo.com/videos/BRMM.MOV

    i took this video with a photocamera so the quality is not that good and the size is huge (20MB)!
    (btw. anyone knos how to edit a .mov file?)

    right know i'm "running it in" (don't know if this is the right expression in english) at only 0.7 bar max. and boy does that thing run! :shock:
    at 0.7 bar it's already faster than before with 1.3 bar!

    Hi Serge, just downloading the video now, I can convert the video to real media if you like, will be alot smaller in size.

    [jealous] Just watched the vid, wow how clean is your car? Are those seats from a 33 P4? Nice engine sound. [/jealous]

    Hi Serge,

    Right I've converted the .MOV video into a hi and low quality .WMV file so you should be able to use Windows movie maker with it now. The files are here

    Serge Low quality 1.1Mb
    Serge High quality 3.6Mb

    If you are going to get some more video done, why don't get yourself a trial copy of Ulead Video Studio 10, quite a big download but you do get a full video editing suite free for 30 days.

    Do you mind if I put them up onto the website?

    Hi Serge, the only way I can think of doing it is by adding a shape of some sort over the licence plate in every frame that the licence plate appears in. Fairly time consuming. There is probably a better way of doing it, but i've only just started messing around with the video software.

    Serge,

    Have you thought about relocating the battery? You'd be able to straighten out the induction route then. Looking very very nice though.
