Eg load the whole thing onto imgur, dropbox, you name it, and just link via thumbnails here.

(no don't do it, just saying - for me it loads in a split second anyway)
I link them through photobucket, but that still might be a bit more load intensive than imgur, never really checked.
It does not matter where they are (unless the source is crap). It's just that when they're full images, all data has to be downloaded. Whereas if they're thumbnails, you save a lot of data download (if they're real, properly resized images, not just ones resized via javascript on client side).
Surprise, no sig. Now there is. Or is there?

Great to be able to see the drivers eyes.

So much attitude in one pic, car sucked to the road, in oppo lock and the g forces apparent from the drivers head.

Not so much cool as fucking dumb. I guess getting a remote for the camera was too hard.

Seeing it on the video is even scarier...



Also, at 3:59 Kris hits a bridge which ended up putting him out of the event.

As far as I can make out that's Jackie Stewart in the 1967 Tyrrell F2 car. But in that year he only raced it at Snetterton, Silverstone, Jarama, Autodromo di Pergusa and Brands Hatch.
