With my Christmas money that Santa is giving me, I am going to finally buy that DVD/VCR combo so I can transfer all my racing tapes to DVD. I got a flip tape that I did back in the 80s of all the NCRA champ dirt car flips and WoO sprint car flips from my earlier tapes that I would like to post. They include Jerry Stones crash over the turn three wall at Knoxville, Jeff Haywoods CRA flip and endo down at Lawton and Pete Fraziers induction into champ dirt car racing when he flipped the Ofixco car down at the Devils Bowl Spring Nationals.

Plus I want to finally be able to post that '75 Hutch fire.

Please give me step by step instructions on how to do this. Thank you.

Each computer is differant,

What I do by using my windows vista , I am using Roxio 9. I hear that Windows 7 has a great video program. Haven't tried it.

Get 10 minutes or under saved to a file in 'my documents, then save it under 'my videos',

this must be a playable file that will play on the windows media player at the click of a mouse.

Then on your Youtube account after you have logged in

hit 'upload'

when the upload page comes on

hit upload again

Go to 'my documents'

then 'my videos'

click on the movie file you need

to the bottom right corner there is "open", click that

Then step away from the computer for the night, because it takes several hours for a large 10 minute video to upload.

There will be another 'upload' icon that comes on after that, if you need part 2 uploaded, then do the same there. That file will upload when the first one is done.

DO NOT CLOSE THE FILE, EXIT THE WINDOW . JUST WALK AWAY . ANY DISRUPTION TO THE LINK WILL ABORT THE UPLOAD.

Keep in mind, I'm not a computer expert, I'm just an obsessive compulsive who doesn't know how to stop until I see old race cars.

Or, you can send it to me and I'll gladly post it. I've been getting 400 hits a day on all these old videos. I can't take any revenue sharing because that was not the deal.

I love these videos of the old stuff though!
