    I was wondering if anyone would be interested in having a Video
    Page for everyone to post videos of our cars. You know like Racing,new mods,Burnouts,listening to a new engine,ect.ect.
    These would be Maverick/Comet related Clips ONLY.

    I don`t know alot about what is involved other than it DOES use a lot of web space. But maybe we could post only Links to clips that we have stored elsewhere on the net.


    I dont mean to create more work for Stefan. He does more than enough for us all as it is by maintaining this site!


    I would possibly be willing to make a Video page on my little site
    but I must warn that I have VERY limited internet / host knowledge...
    and its a miracle to me that I was even able to create my site in the first place! lol

    What do you all think ? By the way my site link is below.

    The video section is still up http://www.maverick.to/videos/ :D

    Bandwidth and space would not be a problem, unless the files are huge(100+megs). I have a lot of room and bandwidth at cybermaverick.net so I could host some of them there as well.

    Im in the process of restoring my files onto my new computer, so once I finish that, I can set up the video section. Im having serious trouble restoring e-mail and hope to have that done by this weekend.

    If you film it, I will host it!

    I just had the pleasure of meeting Stefan last week while the wife and I were in Montreal, and I can say that he comes across in person as every bit as much a genuinely nice guy as he does here on the board. As Dennis said, you da man, Stefan!
