Yeah, they are from a few years ago. I don't race that car anymore. I finally found the video tape and with my new DVD Express, I can now easily convert analog to digital. Not perfect, but good enough.

Hey Mojo, how do you do that? How do you interface the VCR with the computer?

Very nice! That's your 6 speed car right? Isn't that car stock? Sure didn't look stock by the way the tach was moving! What kind of times did it turn?

Depends on your equipment, you can use your audio in/video in ports or if your system as S-Video, connect it via that connection. Use video editing s/w capture the footage. I believe my daughter's PowerBook has both.

I have a device called DVD Express that allows me to hook a VCR or Video Camera through the USB> I can use S Video as well.


As far as the times, I'm sorry to say that they weren't that great that particular day, I don't know exactly what they were, but a 13.50 is about where it would have been.

The car at that time was completely stock except for muffler eliminators and the K&N with the cut lid.
