I always wanted to go and drive 'round the Nurburgring...
You've just saved me the expense!!!
No way is anyone going to get me going round there whilst basket-cases like that are hooning-round. Consumately-skilled they may be!

Scott I'm running a Cube and and iMac. You'll need to get something like Stuffit Deluxe which can unstuff zip files. I'll see if I can unstuff these tomorrow from work ( MacWarehouse)
Nice to see you have some taste rather than buy a boring beige slow box.

The guys at Performance Car/EVO have banged on about this video for ages. Apparently the drive is some bloke called Stefan who was Ruf's test driver.
Read an account of a Journalist being taken for a drive round the 'ring by Stefan and the Porsche blowing a rear tyre and they clipped the barrier. Stefan wasn't fazed in the slightest.

RB5SCOTT,
The files are saved in some form of Windows media player format and hence can't be viewed by the Mac.
The Mac uses file attributes to know what type of file it is (i.e PICT or MPG) and what programs can open it instead of the Windows method of relying on the suffix (.wmv).
The problem Macs users will have is that the file attributes are not set on any of these movies (actually they are but to odd signatures) and hence the Mac will make a guess at what application can open it. SimpleText tends to be the default when no program can be found to open a certain file type. Blah Blah Blah...
Basically we would need to find a Windows program that will take this .wmv format and convert it to .mpg

Hi Rikki23, you need the very latest version of Windows media player (the one included in Windows ME which I think is version 7) to play these files. WNV is a new Micro$oft format based on mpeg, but only the latest players can handle it.
Cheers,
Iain

Hi Iain
I thought that might be the case after hunting round the MSDN site for ages but I only have Windows 95. I got it to work however - it automatically downloaded some codec files or something and worked with no sound.
It is absolutely magnificent, I'd love to have been in the RUF
