The Official UCP Video Thread

Yes, but then it would be easy... made an ID game of it and still missing about every 5th car.

Did think of making it a "UCP competition"

Excellent Frank, I tried to find any footage of the Manta in the last race. No luck. Do you find any on German sites ??

The Scamander- an amphibious vehicle designed by former TVR boss (?) Peter Wheeler.

Looks interesting, but I don't think I could listen to those cooling fans all day long.

And if they're interested in a military use, that canopy does not look practical for a stretcher.

OK, There's always quite a few threads about random/funny/crazy etc. videos, so I thought I'd create this thread where you can post links to any good vids that you'd like to share

I'd like to share the new Nike advert featuring Ronaldinho as a child. The boy had skills! I love watching him play, his foot speed and ball control is amazing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PGzr...page=2&t=t&f=b

I like this video & i like Ronaldinho. World's best football player. Ronaldo de Assis Moreira (born 21 March 1980 in Porto Alegre), commonly known as Ronaldinho. Ronaldinho is one of few Brazilian players to have played at every international age level. He was part of the first Brazilian team to win the FIFA U-17 World Championship in 1997..

Let's cut a F1 car in half!

However, although I know the engine and gearbox are secret stuff, I'd wish they'd shown that in more detail.

Background music is a bit too loud, but it looks like an awesome event!

Interesting how the non Japanese drivers still addressed the crowd. Either they're quick to assimilate or they're very good at memorizing.

Well, Porsche adopted the policy that their customers should pay for their factory racing....like Penske for the LMP cars, or Felbermayer for their GT2 efforts. So far it has proven to be the commercially more viable thing to do. And why would they destroy that principle by fielding "official" factory cars, which will be quicker than the customer cars?
The new LMP1 effort could change all this, as it highly unlikely that they will find "customers" to run this, unless they also come up with an LMP2 version

Edit: Nice clip b.t.w.

Taht kind of was my point Pieter. They leave the "Privateers" to do the work adn build the knowledge while Porsche concentrate of hte likes of the Cayenne ?

( and it was meant in jest, Porsche will always have a heartbeat of motorsport. I just wish they'd embrace it fully before the new generation of marketing in the company forget WHY you do motorsport )
