Not worth the download. The video is too scrambled (w/ codec) to see any details.

Good try though.

Has anyone seen the race between the old ITR vs. the new? I have the first part, but I need the 2nd half, the first part ends with the New ITR getting two wheels in the air on a turn.

you sure?

i can see it vcd quality,
it's pretty good- for example i can read the rpm meter in new itr type- r, and see "arai" sticker on the drivers helmet.

perhaps it's your old computer, exzeltus.

I had the pleasure of enjoying those videos too. You can find the second one here.

BTW, the ending of the second video is also pretty funny.

That's a cool video but i wish the comparo was between the old type-r new type-r and the s2000. I think the results might have been somewhat different with a little less traffic.
Several times the s2000 was forced to take a less than optimal line as the nsx and wrx sti passed. Also, the old type -r was braking much earlier than the s2000... seemed that the stook might have been able to carry a little more speed through many of the corners..

Please no flames from the ITR people..
