I just need the track of the 2nd heat, but feel free to send both. They are in the Records folder. 

Each .ntrk file in there is a recorded track.  Not sure if you named them or not. If you didn't, they'll be named something like Quick000.ntrk, and Quick001.ntrk.

Thanks.

Race 8 will be run on what it arguably the most challenging of all the tracks we race on.  It also has a somewhat unique characteristic in that the finish line is perpendicular to the start line.  When you line up for the start, you can see it over your left shoulder.  Other than that, it's long with lots of hills, LOTS of hills, turns on the sides of hills, and one crossover, also on a hill. 
The practice track is available here:
https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=E03B9451BD4B6B4E&id=E03B9451BD4B6B4E%21878

Track: What's My Line
Plane: KI-84-1b '44
Laps: 1,2,3

Race will be run on Saturday Nov. 5 at 5 pm Pacific Time. Track will be open about an hour before the race for online warm up laps.

  I've uploaded a couple of clips from the racing.  Still working out the best way to do it. The one I just did is a little fuzzy and looks really bad in full screen mode. The audio needs some more work, too. I want to add some narration during the clip so they make more sense.  But I wanted to see how the software I was using was going to look before I put more time into it. I've got some other video editing software I'm going to try next, and will probably take this one down once the next one is up.
