Please forgive the dodgy ending.....I will ammend it and 're-upload' when I have time to sit down and finish it properly!

This is my first ever attempt at video editing so don't be too harsh with the comments....it isn't as easy as you'd think! (well not for me anyway! :P )

Enjoy.......

Brilliant vid Bruce. Excellent effort, especially for a first attempt. :cool:
Can't wait to see the edited end, I just about fall off the end... maybe I'll be able to see my attempt at sliding out on the remake... :D
Nice job mate, well done.
Cheers

I had underinflated rear tyres, My clutch was slipping, my car isnt running right, my top mounts were about to go, the surface was really grippy, its not my fault....

:woohoo: the video's done... now I just have to wait about half an hour for my sh*te connection to load it.

Mine just didn't want to go sideways. 8O
1.8 M40 + Automatic gearbox <> sideways (well, in the dry anyway...) :(
No great loss agreed Blatant. Saves people seeing me f*ck it up.
Got more understeer than anything, then the back came out a bit. Not too impressive, but the first time I'll have been on film nonetheless... :D

Damn right... I helped a mate doecorate his new house tonight... the dodgy uneven paint wasnt my fault... it was the cheap rollers he bought.

Ok... it was because I drank a bottle of wine before I started and another while I was painting...

Much like my appalling understeer was because I suck at drifting and getting my arse out (how ironic that 'the moony master' cant get his arse out in a car, yet on a bus, up against a window I can manage it every time).

But... In my defence, I value my licence too much to learn to do it on public roads so am limited to a drift day a month to hone my skills... all in good time.

I still haven't watched the whole video yet as my connection is gay and I have been out all night...

If anyone has firefox and the plugin that saves youtube/photobucket videos, could they be so kind as to email me the video? (thesimian78@yahoo.co.uk)

lightweights...

to quote some guy in driftworks 'A welded diff is only bad if you drive like you don't have a welded diff and drive like a c*ckpiece'

Ok... so they're not exactly practical for everyday use... But there's an easy way round that... convince the wife that your car is a 'track car' so she refuses to get in it, or allow the kids in it and insists on buying a 'sensible car that YOU CAN'T TOUCH'... then you can do what you want and merrily weld away without any hint of conscience.

Just tried emailing the video - but it got bounced back:

"The following recipient(s) could not be reached" followed by all four email addy's! :(

I think it might be my mail server throwing a paddy, so PM me your addresses and I'll send a CD out with it on....I'll send it to one of you and you can then pass it onto the next. Save me burning lots of CD's.....

Regards,

Bruce.

P.S. Worth sticking on YouTube too?
