I used to visit specmiatavideos.com to watch in-car footage. Hadn't been there in a while and now none of the links to videos work. Is it me or is the site defunct? There is one video in particular I was looking for - Mark Wright doing one lap on the VIR full course.

Anyone have any info on the site?

I pulled the plug about a year ago due to lack of support and because its really hard to complete with Vimeo and Youtube for ease of use.

There is some really good vintage footage in the archives for sure. I could be convinced to restore the site if enough people thought it was worth it. I just need to purchase additional disk space on the VM.

I have an opinion so I must be right

I've still most of the original videos, some in higher resolution than I ever put on the site. I'd be happy to send them to you if you can identify the ones you are looking for.

Gary, I am looking for the Mark Wright one lap at the full VIR course. To me it is one of the wildest laps I have ever seen in a Miata. But I would like any of your videos at VIR or Road Atlanta as well. Let me know what I need to do to get them from you. Thanks.

It would be great if you could post the SIC video with Buras, that was always one of my favorites. If he didnt have the snap oversteer, he may have won.
