Armyofone, your post on page 4 made me LMAO, shame to see someone trying to pull a fast one over our eyes, this is my first time in the ES forum and if all the stories are like this I will have to visit more often

the file you sent to me was a .3gp file. what the hell is that? i cant open it.


i tried windows media, quicktime and my mpeg player. nothing will open them. i will forward it to someone here if they car read it.

windows media gives me this:

Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file.
that means you have to send it to me uncompressed. if you are using yahoo, you can do that. Hel lwhen zipped it was only 403kb.

Yes dear you may try using nokia multimedia player or real-one and it will ask you to download an update to be able to run the file ..

I kept saying the shut was taken by my mobile ... what do you think >>?? I am going to hold a standard cam while I am driving this fast.

i guess my point was (i forgot to say) that i wont be able to host it anyways. ill download the player and look at it. My hosting service only allows me to upload MP3/4, mpeg and wmv files.

if this car is on a dyno or a lift, it doesnt count, you know that right?

EDIT: i just tried real player that wont work either. seached all over the nokia website and cant find the player...still looking.

will do sean, i actually viewed it, but you need to see it. i cant tel if its MPH or KM/h, and i cant tell if the car is on a dyno or a lift. but i can tell you there isnt enough movement going on for the car to be actually on a road.

EDIT: email sent, along with a message. if you can convert it, i can host it.

i had a feeling that video would come down to something like how you described.

Cool

Here's the video in avi format

right click and save please (23mb, eek)

www.turbotoyota.com/ES300saudi.avi

I think it's legit...speedos arent very accurate over 100 anyways.

Anyone know what the km/h readout is on that car? I cant tell if its 200 or 220 at the max on the speedo.
