Historic Rally Podcast – Sample Episode

Posted on April 29, 2008 by

We’re trying something new.

We’re hoping to be able to produce a regular podcast covering the Rally happenings around the UK. Seeing as we’ve been to the first 2 rounds of the BHRC, we figured that would be a good place to start.

Below is a sample of the kind of thing we are planning. The footage in this episode comes from Last Week’s Pirelli International Rally in Carlisle.

Please let us know what you think either in the comments or via email (see the post about the new Home for RallyUpdate- below).

Update: We’re trying out an embedded player, click on the player image to start the video and let us know what you think (it might take a moment to start playing, depending on your connection speed).

The player shows the file smaller than actual size. You can download the full file, which is 640x360px. (It’s 100MB though). Right-Click the “Download” link under the player to save the linked file. It’s an MP4 and should be iPod ready.

Welcome to the new RallyUpdate.com site

Welcome to RallyUpdate.com

We hope to be publishing video and photos from the 2007 and 2008 UK Rally seasons that you can watch here, and as podcasts that you can download.

Read our blog to keep up to date with how things are progressing.

(Please excuse the appearance – We thought we’d put something a bit more interesting up here rather than the usual “Coming Soon” or “Under Construction”, so things will be changing)

Meanwhile:

If you are an event organiser and want us to feature your event, contact us at events@rallyupdate.com
If you’re a driver or a team and want us to feature you, drop us a line at teams@rallyupdate.com
If you have photos or video you would like us to publish here, or you have any questions, drop us a line at studio@rallyupdate.com - we’d love to hear from you.

Thanks,

The RallyUpdate Team

Off to the Pirelli 2008 – See you there

Posted on April 17, 2008 by

We’re just loading up the gear and heading off to Carlisle for the Pirelli 2008.

We’ll mostly be after coverage of the British Historic Rally Championships round, but while we’re there we’ll see what we can see.

Hope to see you there, but don’t worry if you don’t make it, just check back here and we’ll be posting our footage as soon as we get back.

Moving home

Posted on April 10, 2008 by

RallyUpdate.com is live. Welcome to our new home!

We decided that we would move all of our rally related work from our main site at OSGmedia.com and give it a home of its own here at RallyUpdate.com

After our work last year at the British Rally Championships following a team through the season, we decided to put our experience to good use and start publishing regular video content from the British Rally scene.

This year, we’re after more than before. We’re still aiming for riveting in-car with our great mini cameras, but we’re also after interviews with the drivers and their teams, with more info about the cars too.

To handle all this extra footage, we’ve set up RallyUpdate.com as the home for the various “programmes” that we plan to produce.

To make sure our programmes reach the widest audience, we’ll be using various bits of technology to keep everyone updated.

We’ll be setting up an Email list for you to subscribe to, so that we can let you know when there’s new things to see
We’ll be posting clips on YouTube as a taster
and, our favourite, we’ll be publishing Video Podcasts, so you can have your favourite clips with you at all times

We hope you enjoy following along with us through the year. Do let us know what you think, and if you see us trackside, say “hi” (just don’t get your woolly hat in the shot!).

The RallyUpdate Team.
