Thanks for the reminder. I have seen this before (It first appeared in 2006 in
a post in one of the TR Register forums) but I had forgotten about it and it
was always my intention to grab a copy of the video as stuff has a tendency to
evaporate over time and there is some great TR footage in addition to the
historic Jabbeke speed run.
The cameraman and producer has a web site with a lot of cool stuff including
the instructions for downloading this video using Bittorrent.

You will need to install the bittorrent client,
http://www.bittorrent.com
Then click on the link in the Reisevideo website above to download the video
and probably install the open source XVID codec (windows or Mac)
http://www.xvidmovies.com/codec/
The 700mb download took about an hour over my fios connection, Bit torrent is
very efficient.

Subject: [6pack] 1 hour TR2 Jabbeke Speed trials
Don't know how many have seen this but I just found it myself. It's a 1 hour
video of the Jabbeke TR2 Speed trials held on May 20, 1953. I have only seen
6
minutes of it has I am trying to get my TR3 up to speed today. LOL So if you
have not seen it enjoy. Appears things were a little different back then.
