Send the video to techfixes AT btconnect.com and I'll host it on a public server and post the link here. (20 meg max)

IF you want a video conversion util, then easiest to use that Ive found is, TMPGEnc
Get that program from kazaa or wherever and it'll convert allmost anything to mpeg1
formatted video. (VCD)



As far as doing 205mph without a seatbelt, that reminds me of the video of the guy who steals a brand new corvette from the factory. As he is going 180mph running from the
Police he loses the tail swerving in between semi-trailers and crashes into the back of one and is thrown clear of the car. 5 mins later he is being lead away in cuffs, walking...
So maybe no seatbelt is the way to go at that speed

at that speed 205mph, if you crash a seat belt or not the results would be the same.

Crash is an unknown quantity at this point
...

Apparently, as pointed out on another forum, the pic is a fake. The street lights should appear different at this speed. And check out that mysterious orange on the 250 mark.

Depends on shutter speed too maybe but yea yer probably right there. Sad thing to lie about, everyone knows 200mph is not easily achieved by any car. Exponential forces and all

It´s not about what the car is capable of doing, it´s about the driver. Fulcrum has offered to host the video, let´s see it and end all the arguing.

Evo (uk) magazine did a special on 200mph road cars. In trials on a german section of the autobahn, early morning they found a few of their 'supercars' greatly struggled to get to 200 mph. Including the Pagani Zonda, which could not exceed 197 mph despite having 555 bhp

White, Dont take it personal but you saying you did 205mph in your TT and have a video to prove it but havent shown it to the board yet is the same as dangling a steak in front of a bunch of hungry dogs.
