Movies

Jerry Yuskaskus created a great movie of the 2003 Winter Nationals, and has generously allowed us to link to it on this site. It's a great flick, but it's also a very large file (over 62 MegaBytes).

We recommend that you right-click on the link below, and choose "Save Target As..." from the context menu, so you can download the file to your hard drive before opening it. (We don't really have a "streaming server" or anything, so....)

Right-click on this link and download the 2003 Winter Nationals Movie.

Also check out Steve Garfield's great video on Blip TV, presented on Rocketboom, February 7, 2007.

NEBSRA 07 - Modified Class Championship - Max vs Al

Mad Max vs Al's Evil Twin! There would be false starts, there would be painful crashes (lessons on why spectators stand behind the line of death!); Al wins this heat, but in the end there would be one winner and that would be CMPTRA's Mad Max! CMPTRA takes 1st and 3rd (with "Disaster") in the Modified Class this year!

NEBSRA 07 - The Patriot vs Morning Wood DC

CMPTRA's "Patriot" takes on the "direct current" Morning Wood! Morning Wood DC would eventually catch on fire this night! (Wiring is not a job for men with no sleep....) Patriot wins!

NEBSRA 07 - Stick A Fork In It, Its Done!

It's finished folks, nothing we can do about it now. This "global warping" (the theme of the NEBSRA race this year) has cooked our planet. Stick a fork in it, 'cause it's done!...
