This morning in the US the Speed Channel broadcast "Legends of Motorsport -
the Ringmasters", an excellent documentary about the 1967 German Grand Prix.
I taped it, but would like to get it on a more permanent format. Does
anyone have a vid cap of it? If so, could you put it on
alt.binaries.simulators.autos? TIA, Hal.

Any chance we could talk you into posting it?

by **Ped Xin** » Sat, 01 Mar 2003 16:24:40

Jeesh, you even got a program covering the Grand Prix at Spa in 1958.

Perhaps Eldred will allow you to nab it off him. It would be easier than
my having to go through that whole posting thing to a.b.simulators.autos
newsgroup again. You remember what happened the last time. :-)

Hey Eldred,

I get a "login request denied" error when trying to download form the site. Am
I missing something?

No. Nothing seems to be working now on ANY of my pages. Something seems to
have killed the FTP service, but I don't know what.
What's worse, I can't get it to restart...:-( It will probably be down until I
go back into the office Monday.

I have been getting it in little bits and pieces all night, but two of the
files I tried to download died at 96%. Not sure if that is an FTP error or
a problem with the way Getright works.

by **Haqsa** » Sun, 02 Mar 2003 14:16:28

Finally got all the ones I wanted. I checked the log and all three of them
timed out at 96%. Very strange. Any idea what could have caused that?

Anyway, thanks for hosting the files, and thanks to Ped Xing for providing
them.

by **Eldre** » Sun, 02 Mar 2003 14:15:47

Ok, now it's working again. I don't know WTF happened...
