Wink Re: Live from the Summit Nationals at Las Vegas

Along with all runs count correct class or not
You now have to run under the index to qualify. LOL

Hey, it was still April 1st in Vegas when I posted that. It was Dan's idea. It was just a mix up. DRC didn't use the right form or whatever. Dan is on the ladder in the tower. DRC should post a revised order and ladder when they get here.

Super Stock Q2 is up. Watch Tom Nolan's left front wheel closely on his run. His run starts at about the 7:30 mark.

They start with Super Gas this morning and then Stock and Super Stock.

Well, it's just the same as yesterday. When the fans are here my internet service goes to ****. I also noticed this at Pomona, but it wasn't nearly as bad.

Bernie Cunningham gave me an in-car video of him dropping Mark Faul like a hot potato at the finish line. I have Super Stock round one ready to upload also. As soon as the fans leave I'll be able to upload them.

I noticed the helmet cam uses the MJPG codec. Basically what this is, is a series of jpegs played at 30 frames per second. Each frame is separate from the other.

With the H264 or Xvid codec they use the last frame (or series of frames) and only save the changes between the two. This results in a lot better compression and quality.

The video that Bernie gave me is 65MB. I encoded it using the H264 codec (with the same settings as I use on my other videos) and it cut the file size down to 9MB without any loss in quality. In fact it might be a little better because the H264 codec has a deblocking filter built in.

Toby,

So I'm guessing one of our "enhancements" wasn't a decent WIFI hub at National Events!

I really appreciate all your efforts. Funny that we had better coverage of the LODRS event last week from 1320go and Ustream! Of course, I need to get the car finished and be with you all at the track!

Good luck!

Lew

Thats the Defrank car...... I'm sure there is a logical explanation, but if someone could fill us in on what that might be, it would be nice.
