saw a white 87-88 turbo coupe get chased down by a trooper with a mustang on spike tvs worlds scariest police chases....
he says over the speaker to the kid driving the turbo coupe (you cant out run me, i got a 5.0) lol
the one and only time i wished i had a T'VO
Yea I saw that a couple of years ago... Pretty good chase, white TC with red interior .. Cop also says the Turbo Coupes are fairly fast cars.. Kids bail and run at the end..
Like to have a copy of that myself...
awesome...yep that was the one....
I also seen the one that was a midnight blue bird 87-88.
Some lady was bookin and she wrecked bad, but still lived to tell. The bird was crushed to pieces, hit a wall at 75 mph est.
also on worlds scariest police chases, Spike TV is awesome, love that channel. I Love watching MXC, thats some funny stuff right there.
The only down side to spike tv is how they run ads for their own shows OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. I swear I saw that one Al Pacino ad 200 times before they finally showed the movies. By that time I was so sick of the catch phrases and lines they used in the ads, that I didn't even want to watch it.
...why don't I see any shows titled "world's scariest police chases", even on their webpage? I'd find the one with the TC and record it if I could find it
Using SageTV
I think its "Worlds Wildest Police Chases"....
Here ya go.. Good luck on actually finding that episode though..
http://www.spiketv.com/shows/series/index.jhtml?seriesID=13535&episodeID=025&refID=wildest
it'll come on eventually...its on 3 times a day
well I found an 85/86 tbird on the show so far. Still no sign of the turbo coupe
divx is letting me down quality wise but will do... http://home.comcast.net/~seekproj/86.avi
or how about that one police video where here was an old guy in his underwear, takes a shotgun out of the trunk of his Thunderbird and blows his own head off. that was a messed up video
87/88 TC...or in their eyes, a "brown Olds". Not the one mentioned above
http://home.comcast.net/~seekproj/TC-1.avi
And another...has front grill but TC hood
http://home.comcast.net/~seekproj/87.avi
All the way, Baby!

:dunno: Can't get it to work.....
hmm...was 24.5MB...now it claims to be over 25 which is the limit. Hold on
edit:
its reuploaded at 24.9MB now. Dropped the audio quality down a notch
Nope, still notta.
works fine here - prompts with a "open with/save as" box
that one works but i cant get the one before it to work...do you only have enough room to host one at a time?
on comcast's space, yeah. 25MB per account. I try to compress them just under 25MB to make them fit
I'll cycle them if you guys want

You guys using older players, maybe with incompatible codecs installed? I have trouble with most recent AVI files, as I refuse to move out of the stone age (W95 + MediaPlayer 6.4).
They all work for me now, guess i'm up to date :D (probabally due to re-formatting and updating my comp every few months...)
Windows XP, Media Player 10
Found it. They assume the turbo coupes come pushing 220hp from the factory...that and they make things sound like a 0-60 in 6 seconds is groundbreaking :rolleyes:
DivX 5.21 video and MP3 audio. Have the correct codecs and it'll work fine
Now if only I could find why its taking SO long to do anything. Usually converting to raw avi with a file this big would take 4-5 minutes and compression would take just over 10. Its taking 13 and 25. Nothing's hogging my cpu or making demands on my memory/harddrive

will be done uploading in a minute
too bad the divx compression is showing failure again. The flashing lights have horizontal bars that aren't there in the original mpeg copy
yeah man...thats the one! awesome...thanks...
Seek... Thank you for your presistance in getting the video.. My old 500 AMD machine has problems keeping up with the video, but I'll upgrade one of these days...
