It would be great to see one of the maunufacturers bring these kind of commercials to Saturday morning programs once again.

Each really made me want to go home and race!

Hey VJ, I would suggest leaving comments on YT (not pissed comments) letting people know where they can get your DVD if they are interested. Being seen there and having it reposted will bring it to people who may not have seen it otherwise. Like me.... I am a photographic artist so i understand your position on protecting your work and investment. But as the proverb says you can make lemonade......... I have actually bought many music and racing dvds after seeing them on YT. It can work in your favor. mj

You need to buy software that allows you to load your video into your computer, there may also be hardware you may need as well... can you hook your VCR up to your computer?

Some hardware comes with software for such a task. If you want to adjust color, and sound or make edits... that's a whole other level.. you would need editing software, and that's not usually cheap.

to be honest, I'm a little pissed about it.If its any consolation, the quality on YouTube sucks compared to something on a DVD.

I don't know if you can claim copyright infringement since the videos were originally done by the slot car companies but YouTube does have a policy against that. You are selling DVD's with other people's work so you either have a license to do that or maybe shouldn't get upset if you don't. Not trying to piss off anyone but that's my 2 cents.
