It went great! We got some good movies. I have not downloaded
them from all the cameras yet but what we got so far looks fantastic.
I'll have a brief clip of one of them shortly.
Thanks for all your effort on this Dave. It really paid off.

I am looking for a web side that has about 30 meg available
for hosting these mpg's.

In the mean time here are a few jpg stills Dave took at 6AM this morning
of his 1991 2nd gen RX7 Turbo II rotary powered RV6 and my RX8.
Dave's RV6 is still a work in progress.

BTW That's what I told Robin when you did not respond on the radio. :)

BTW Dave's stock 1991 RX7 turbo is apparently holding up great. The secret is limit the
boost to 30 inches of Hg at all altitudes. I doubt any aircraft turbo
could do much better. Dave has had it up to 17,000 feet. My guess it is flat
rated to over 20K.

Here is an excerpt from one of the shots.

The basic problem with this Dimage still camera is its inability to refocus fast
enough to deal with the speeds here. Perhaps this angle is just not possible with
any camera. I don't know enough about high speed video cameras to tell.
