This is a webcam straight from Germany..it takes another picture every 60 seconds for the site instead of being a full time live feed. If you are bored at work, pushing the refresh button can get addicting, especially if your bored.

If you look now, that maroon color car is the one that I almost drove on the track.
Ford Mondeo station wagon 6-spd. 223 km/hr - aerodynamically limited, going downhill.

Ok, something different happening now. any way to make it auto-refresh? I need a second monitor for this. mmm, maybe there's an old 15" CRT around here somewhere...

Integrated it into our dcawd.com front page. Refresh is a little rough, lots of content on the page, but is still kinda nice.

Working to refine it a little, no complaining right now.

Genius at work!

Ok, got a javascript in it instead of the META tag, refresh is
MUCH smoother.
Yea, wish I could write a script that would get us there... gotta ask Julian, I think he can!
