Pink Ladies – Charity Sprint

Phrixus — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 10:14:22 +0000

We took part in the “Pink Ladies” Charity Sprint last week-end. There were quite a few BMWs at the event and I am pleased to report that we did very well on the day. Grant and I had the fastest E46 M3′s on the day beating even the CSL. My car was the 6th quickest overall too which was an excellent result. Somehow, I even managed to have the overall fastest 64ft time at just under 2s!

This short video shows a few of our runs including Dave (Golf R32) and Tony (Vauxhall Monaro).

Here are the final results from the day for all competitors.

The making of an E46

Depending on how good your German is, this old video might not make any sense to you (I certainly don’t understand a word!). The video shows how BMW create an E46 from start to finish. The manufacturing process is amazing to watch! You can always click through it a bit!

Short video with some nifty timelapse sequences when Mystic Dave, the engineering director, and Shane installed the new anti-roll bars.

New shed – Vimeo test

Phrixus — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 11:18:23 +0000

There is a new shed in our garden to replcae the old one that fell apart. Keeping with tradition I created a timelapse of the build on my Canon EOS 20D. To test out the video quality from Vimeo, I have uploaded it here and embedded it below. I think that it looks good, especially considering that I uploaded a compressed video to start with.

EDIT: Updated video to HD version, you might need to let it stream a bit.

Leigh popped round for some beers and entertainment! From a few hours browsing the web, this was the highlight!

Since I have not posted for some time, I figured a bit of humour might not go amiss!! Here is a great insight into what it’s like when we get into some real manual work! In this case back in 2004 when we first renovated the boat! Click below to see it… or go to the media page to see this and more!
