Lol, geeze. Hold your horses. My upload speed at home blows, last time I checked it was 60% 
When it does get there I suggest if nothing else that people watch/listen to the whole thing if for no other reason than to hear my random commentary at times.
There is a choice quote or two in there

Its relatively cheap and easy to use. Worth it. Though, producing the video last night made me really wish I had an octocore cpu or a better computer in general since it took over 45 minutes to render that 11 min worth of PIP I did last night. Even pegging all four of my quad core.

Yeah, Seatown had my iPhone on Shuffle so that explains the random assortment of songs. I do happen to be a fan of Spears tho, she has a couple catchy tunes. Just not something I would have picked on a meet like this

I almost wish I could have panned the camera as I passed WTB.... It was interesting to see his wheels lock up and skid across the gravel...

If you were disappointed you didn't win one of the two "rotor key chains" Rotary Performance donated as door prizes for the Kerrville dinner they sell them on their website at the following link..

Mary mentioned that they work on RX-8's as well. Sounds like most of you work on your own cars yourselves (I learned a long time ago NOT to do that!) but if you ever need expert help I highly recommend them. I apologize in advance if I should have posted this in a different forum.

Let me rephrase that..
Let me rephrase that.. I learned a long time ago that "I" should NOT do that! Years ago I tuned-up my '65 Lemans and left the wire from the points exposed to the rotating distributor which waited until I was on top of a bridge crossing the Willamette river in Portland, Oregon, on Christmas Eve night, with a car full of presents, to wear through and strand me!
