Yah, that site is all messed up....

I did some digging and came up with these links:

High Bandwidth Movie

Low Bandwidth Movie

The narrator could use some reading lessons, but otherwise a cool flick. Yeah, supercharger whine is sweet!

Thanks to both of you for making it accessible!!

Yes the narrator could be a little more polished (as could the translator ). Still it's great that it's in English and there is no narration at all during the standing start acceleration run! Nice video shots, too.

Sorry about that - it is the x on the left for high bandwidth - i went the lo-tech way and clicked until it started working!

Had a supercharged car before and it souded just like that - on a cold wet night it would sound even better - colder charge, more fuel and more bhp.

The full-size video always lags for me. I've got a decent DSL connection and have viewed streaming video with around the same resolution. I wonder if their server is whacked? The small one works just fine tho.

Hi there!

Hate this real media streaming stuff. Have got DSL, so speed/quality is not a problem, but I like to store it also on my harddisk. Due to the site is totaly messed up I would not wonder, if the link is not available in some time anymore.
Tried already Streambox!VCR which is a tool to capture such streamfiles, but it did not work.
