Never argue with an idiot. He brings you down to his level, then beats you

What pgm did you use to edit it?
Especially loved the rear view mirror bit. :)
But, depending on the edit software that could be harder that than
easier. (Besides, the virtual cameramen applaude your doing it as
a "live shot" rather than post production effect<g>).
I downloaded Jokimma and the AI cars slow down at the jump, cool place for
watching replays....Fave scene is the shot at around 45 secs where the lotus
lays down a lot of ***.....cool camera work

I really like it the way it is.
