Le Mans 2005 video
« on: July 11, 2005, 02:13:31 pm »
My brother filmed our exploits at Le Mans this year, and the video is very good, nice mixture of racing and messing about, and the music goes well with it I think. Download it here :

An excellent video, well filmed and edited, with a great soundtrack.

It really gives you a feel of the spirit and atmosphere of Le Mans.

Awesome!!!

What was the soundtrack. I used to have it but I've lost it!

Very, very impressive - as others have stated, it really captures the essence of the weekend and the soundtrack to visuals makes it very watchable. Congratulations.
I did a similar (though nothing like as professional) effort on VHS of my video footage from the 89 race, plus some plagurised Eurosport footage -  using The Eagles, "Life in the Fastlane", with a smattering of Wagner for the Saubers that kicked ass that year.
We used it as our 'warm-up', during the mobile piss-up in the RV that we rented for a couple of subsequent races. It was nothing like as professional as this though. Congratulations again - very evocative stuff.

Absolutely superb stuff. Does this guy work in the media? If not, he should, it's far better than the crap put out by the professionals, i.e. ACO, Duke Video etc.
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

Sounds from all the above comments that this is a great effort.

For those of us still in the stone age and running on dialup is there any possibility of getting hold of a CD? I'm quite willing to pay postage and media costs.

Very good, I think each and everyone of us can relate to most aspects of which is why it is so good.

Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.
