Huge hole is huge
I don't mean to be the jackass of the group but...
AWESOME video. The quality is completely outstanding. The camera angles are excellent. The lacking issue is...well, the content.
So, we are watching an RX-8 with a ricer wing *OK, I'm probably alone in that debate...wing is way too 'honda' for me.* We see a SEXY as hell RX-8 driving around a twisty road nice and calm. OK, that's great...except 90% of the video is JUST that. The credits is when it got real good, except for the biker doing something retarded and wearing a helmet and no leather otherwise....have fun with a functioning brain while you can't move your arms or legs. At least wear jeans and a shirt.
OK, I'm done being flamebait, I guess. Awesome video anyway. This is the 5th time I've watched it in the past few days.

as far as the issue being the content, im working on it now actually, the problem was i only had one other person helping me at any given time so it was very hard to set up the angles i was looking for, this video was mainly a test to see how the rx8 community would react to a little change, and w/o trying to sound cocky there really arent that many high quality rx8 videos out there. Both videos were shot entirely in 1080 but were descaled for viewing obviously, and i thought that would be pretty cool to see the 8 move in high def. If you want some straight line speed there was a shot in there where it hit 122 on its way to over 145+ only problem is the camera, having a free fall sensor in it, cut off =(. Either way more content is comming. Not sure if you saw the second vid with my ninja but ill post the link anyway.

Sweet video, I'd like to see it in HD just to see how clear it looks, and because it would be cool to have a vid like that of an 8 to show off on my mac. 
Nice work, definitely keep it up. Let me know if you want some 3D effects for a vid, I have been looking for something to get me back into my Lightwave stuff.

Just to let everyone in on the video...It hit the front (home) page of streetfire on friday and is now being used as one of four of their example videos. The guys over at streetfire wrote up this caption about my video: "aespo22 has shown us the future of automotive videos on the web and they are in HD!
The picture quality of this video is amazing and the stuff we're watching ain't too bad, either. It's a 2008 MazdaSpeed RX8 dicing on the street with a Kawasaki Ninja.
We don't know where the leafy lane that they're playing on is located, but we'd sure like to find it. Playing tag with a modified RX8 and a Ninja would be pretty rad, too.
Watch the RX8 & Ninja Head to Head in HD!"
God knows how long its been since an 8 hit the front page. Looks like its finally going to get the credit it deserves =)

There is the blog created by the guys running Streetfire so itll always be saved under the July 2008 edition Best of Streetfire. Good start so far, and with a few more RX8 enthusiasts helping me it can only get better for the 8 from here on Im still seeking a new location so if any one has any recommendations for good filming scenery dont hesitate to let me know.

I just started work on the next iteration of the movie and it has a pretty cool night/city theme to it. It will be done within a month or so...Not to get off topic but is anyone here very familiar with both forced induction setups and the new acessport? I have a few questions that I cant find in any threads.

Just incase anyone is still paying attention to this thread, I recently finished working on a new video thats been in progress for quite some time now. Its a new and darker take on the 8 and an entirely new filming/editing style for me. It took several seperate occasions of traveling to Philadelphia around 1-5 in the morning to get the shots. Hope you like it. Feel free to spread the link through the threads so it can get a bit more exposure and comments are always welcome. heres the link: http://videos.streetfire.net/video/W...-up_193675.htm
