I told you I was going to try something a little different this year. I've always wanted to get a video camera, but I never have. HD camcorders are pretty cheap nowadays so I figured why not? I haven't used a video camera since I used to use my dad's old 8mm camera back in the 70s when we would go on vacation. Hopefully I'll get better as the season goes on.
Since I'm uploading the videos through my phone, I have to reduce the resolution and quality to make the file size reasonable so it doesn't take forever to upload. I think they still look pretty good. I could just upload them to youtube, but youtube encodes the video again which reduces the quality even more. So I'm uploading them to a free file host.
To play the video you need to have the H264 codec installed. If the video won't play install this codec pack:

If you still have problems playing the video, leave a reply here or PM me and I'll see if I can help.
Here's the folder where I'll be uploading my videos for this race:

Just click on the the link and it will take you to the download page then click on the link to download the file.
This is just a video I shot real quick so I could have something to upload tonight so that you could make sure you'll be able to play them. Tomorrow I'll have more time to shoot video and hopefully I'll get some shots of the Super Stockers making their time runs.
Here's a preview of what's in the video:
