Does it take a while for the other races to post, or is that? Those are only from Saturday.

I'm not sure if they've got any other videos from CCS Daytona but I don't think so because they would have posted them by now.  You can contact them through the website, which is how I got in touch with them.

The guy whose site that is and I coincidentally live in the same town, and we know some of the same folks, so we started an email conversation.  I've asked him about the ability to purchase some of the videos, but right now they only have a few things for sale (e.g. suspension videos, etc).  Of course ripping a Flash stream is a trivial matter, but since the Club racing market is relatively small and these guys are doing a great job of providing high quality videos for it, I don't want to do anything that would jeopardize their income stream and give them pause to consider whether they want to keep doing it or not.  Ideally the business would be financially viable enough for them to attend and record most major club racing events (as it is, I'm not sure if they would have done CCS at Daytona had they not been there for AMA anyway), so I don't want to do anything that might jeopardize any chance, however slight, of that happening.

I just heard back from the guys at OTT and they're going to try to make the vids downloadable when they get back from their current trip (at Barber presently).

With the latest Real Player it gives you the ability to download them as .flv files.
