Yea maybe Coomer can allow us to add a video or two into our profile...Then from there it has to be approved before it can be seen.
Just an idea.

adding video to our profiles ( assuming Coomer is here and with enough time to play around with the settings ) would take a lot of bandwidth thus costing money.
even though I don't agree, who am I here ? majority has agreed to try this, so keep it simple, upload to youtube pr similar and post the link, if a moderator feels is not following the rules, they can delete / edit the post.

That's true I didn't think about all the space the video would take up.

This is a pretty interesting topic. Also considering the fact that it is true that people have been convicted of street racing, wreckless, speeding, etc. just from forums. VAdriven, a forum site, mostly for hondas, is a site for VA Beach car enthusiasts and that forum is monitered by local cops. Its insane. People posting up vids of them hitting 120mph+ and it taking a minute and a half to get there 
is pointless and ignorant.
IMO, dyno pulls and fly by vids would be pretty sweet. ill be takin a couple as soon as im boosted. *January 28th, 2009* lol
on the bandwith matter, thats a good point as well. We could easily post the vid up on our youtubes or myspace or something and just post a link. If a mod doesnt approve... close the thread or edit the post.
well, thats my two cents.

Tuffy, I see you looking in this thread. Get us started by posting a video of your car in action!

Of course this will be mods discretion, no questions about that. But my question is, would there be no videos of stock auto ST's trying to do a 0-100 run? Because that's gonna take forever and nobody is going to want to watch it. It will waste time. Like I said earlier, I think the allowed videos should be tasteful. If your car is capable of something, then post a video. But I won't be posting any vids of mt GT. I know it's not fast, and I don't want to waste everyone's time and have the entire 6GC community ripping on me for trying to do something stupid in a slow car. Presure, that quote sounds like you and I are thinking the exact same thing. So would videos of stock GT's or ST's be allowed if they aren't doing something impressive? I say leave worthless videos to Youtube and waste everyone's time there.

Sounds like a good idea, distinguishing, deciding on whats appropriate is more of the task. It becomes a case by case approval before it can be posted.

In my opinion this is good idea. I'm able to make performance video legal way.
a) I should take some vids during track day
b) I should take some video on airfield (even one local TV station is using it for events about cars... its full legal when you have permission from airfield owner)
c) I should use Autobahn in Germany (no speed limits!!!)
so why do not have chance to share? and of course no one said I must make any video just because of performance topic here... so... why not.

i think the rules/the forum section should be pretty strictly enforced.
i.e... you have to submit all information of the video to the mods before it can get posted.
like this
>
Then it would automatically rule out those people who would post "0-130 IN AUTO ST 15MIN VIDEO."

wow there is a mod nomination for me!?
interesting...

IMHO this will lead to alot of, "0-130 st" posts, or generally illegal actions, that will be locked, or just require ALOT more mod involvment.
Im all for giving it a shot and seeing how people handle it, I realy am. I just honestly believe it will be ALOT more trouble then its worth.
Also if it does have a test run, there needs to be REAL rules, ie: 0-60 timed...(must show speedo whole time), 40-100 timed (must show speedo whole time), drive bys..(max speed XXmph [2x means only double digits] no US highway is 65+....)
there needs to be rules, and they need to be enforced... Mod aproval of videos is a must. IMO.
hope this helps in some way.

Sorry if this is a little off-topic, but since when are we not allowed to post vids? Don't get me wrong, I'm not a huge vid guy (in fact I need to buy a decent camera) but I've posted a few and I've seen others and it's never been a problem....

Uh, you need to expand your universe a little bit there Here in GA we have 70mph speed limits, in Texas (and most other western states) they have 80mph posted limits on the HIGHWAY, 70mph posted limits on the other roads (meaning a two-lane regular road with no division).

2 things.
1) the "i stand correct" appology/whatever covers my less then amazing speed limit statments.
2) we all know wikipedia is the end all be all for answers....didnt some huge corperation spam it with fake info to sound better? IIRC walmart or MCD or something like that. Im not sayin in this instance wiki is wrong, i just really dont turn to it for answers.
edit: if u wanna correct me about the wiki info spam, i bet u could wiki the answer too...
