Another track video

Someone on the Miata mailing list just posted this:

Quote:

I came across with RX-8 video at Japanese Asahi Paper site.
This video is 11min45sec long and with Japanese narration. It shows test runs at the circuit plus an interview with Mazda's chief designer Mr. Katabuchi.

You can't link most streaming WMV files since they are only available as an MMS datastream (Microsoft's proprietary secure transport protocol designed for copyrighted media), and cannot be downloaded by a browser. ASFrecorder and other similar ripping tools do the handshaking needed to appear as Mediaplayer and are able to save the stream as a local file.

Actually, Yuhki already posted the link to this video last month, and I have the stream saved on my server for those interested, look in this thead:
