Title: Lancia Video Group
Post by: lee69 on 08 April, 2007, 06:30:11 PM
I've been busy on YouTube and noticed that there wasn't a group for our beloved marque.  Well....thereis now, called Lancia Automobili and accessed via this link http://youtube.com/group/lancia (http://youtube.com/group/lancia).  So far there are about 50 different videos, I've used some editorial discretion in choosing the ones that I think are most interesting, informative and well-produced.  Please take a look, there are some gems (see Brian's post 'worth a look' in General Chat for example).  Anyone can join - all you need is a YouTube login.

Happy viewing
Lee

Good idea Lee, I've added the Centenary Top 50 video onto YouTube so if when it's processed it can go in the group !

Title: Electric Stratos
Post by: lee69 on 04 May, 2007, 06:19:54 PM
Uploaded a new piece from Italy, featuring what it refers to as an electric Stratos.  However, the car featured is an 037, which doesn't sound very electric to me!  Anyone with better Italian could maybe confirm.

Hi Lawrence,
Thanks for that, :-* it brought back many happy memories. How did you get hold of it? did you video it while it was being shown? is it possible to get hold of it as I'd love to have a copy.

Hello folks

I thought that there was an "official" production on Turin planned?  Is there any news on this?  I was just thinking...  year ago today we were thinking about leaving (or had just left) for the festivities

Hi Lawrance
Many thanks for that, it really did bring back some very happy memories.  I put my name down for a copy of the video at the last night in the Arsenale but have never received it which was very disappointing.

Brian/Peter/everyone,
I was stood at the back & recorded it ;D. The montage is excellent & the music just makes it a little bit more special. I've got a business card from the "official" film maker www.mastergraphics.it info@mastergraphics.it . I've sent countless e-mails to him, so has Paul Baker but to no avail. Again, I've ordered a copy (COD) but nothing's turned up :-\, maybe the LMC committee can look into this??? Some may think that I'm being a little cheeky asking this question seeing that I'm no longer a LMC member, but at the time of the trip I was a LMC member. Brian, if you post me a blank DVD in a sturdy case & a S.A.E. (drop me an e-mail via my profile/website) then I'll do you a copy. Cheers.

It was a year ago today that Simon & I set off on our pilgrimage, oh how time flies  ::). I may have breached a copyright or 2 somewhere along the lines, but the bloke who done all the filming was stood right behind me at the Biscaretti & said nothing, hence why it's now Googled for everyone to see, shame that we can't puchase the DVD, although I did purchase the photo CD to go along with my 1,000 or so photos  ;D. The offer is open to anyone if they want a copy, just go onto the contact page on my website & send me a blank DVD along with a sturdy case & S.A.E. Thanks.

Brian,
Just to let you know that your DVD's have been done & will be in the post today.

From a Lancia "enthusiast" to other Lancisti, rumour has it that non LMC members won't be able to post up on this forum for much longer & is the committee's ruling NOT the members. I for one disagree to this as (this has been pointed out to "Rodders" when I've been banned a couple of times) if someone is looking at purchasing a Lancia for the 1st time & comes across this forum, at least they can ask a question or 2, this can only be good for the marque??? I apologise if I've ruffled a few feathers along the way, I've organised quite a few events through the LMC & now another club will be receiving this input. Thanks.

LAWRENCE

Post by: ncundy on 07 September, 2007, 09:36:41 AM
Is what snapper 8V saying true ?? If we want to encourage membership and present the LMC as an open and welcoming club to potential members, an "open access for posting" area is a necessity. I am not aware of a single club site that has this blanket restriction. I hope it is not a reaction to one or two ex-members' occasional postings causing some kind of resentment amongst some members. If so I think "grin and bear it" is a far better policy. Members only area yes, blanket restriction, guaranteed to backfire.

No ban them all, to quote the editor of the monthly propaganda “there is no other motor club in the UK that carries this kind of atmosphere”.

Ok he is talking about the AGM, but that was limited to what 100 ish members…… Hmm great…..  Atmosphere of 100 ish people must have been swell. But then again how can he say about the atmosphere as he also states he wasn’t there….?

As said before this thread bye bye new members as who is going to want to join a club with that attitude and atmosphere….?


Title: Re: Lancia Video Group
Post by: chrislg on 07 September, 2007, 11:28:49 AM
Interesting debate, but if we did restrict the forum to club members only (and I am NOT saying we should) we would not be alone,  despite Neil's assertion that he is unaware of no single club that does so! There are a number of clubs who do restrict their forums to members only - and one of them is one of the largest and most influential historic clubs in the UK - the VSCC (Vintage Sports Car Club) with approximately 10,000 members. Others after a very quick look are:

VSCC – www.vscc.co.uk
Alfa Romeo Owners Club - www.aroc-uk.co.uk
Jaguar Enthusiasts' Club - www.jec.org.uk
Goodwood Road Racing Club - www.goodwood.co.uk
Alvis Owner Club - www.alvisoc.org
BARC - www.barc.net
X1/9 Owners Club - www.x1-9ownersclub.org.uk

I am also pretty sure that others like the Ferrari Owners Club may have a forum – but you have to be a member to log in to their site to access it. I know some other clubs are thinking along the same lines because of legal problems that they can cause because users don’t follow the rules, so by making it ‘members’ only it reduces the risk of problems occurring. Again I am NOT for totally excluding non-members from posting, but it might have to be in certain areas only and be restricted to asking for help or advice – rather than general comments.

If people have to say who there are, and it's identified if you're a paid up member or not (as it is here), then what is there to gain by forcing the "closed shop" approach apart from reduced communication and more distance between members and non-members.

Since the moderators can "moderate" people where is the issue.

Is the reason that people crack too many blue jokes in the Warby lounge (which is memebrs only and restricted), or is it to stop people like me advertising the L2B or Lawrence the track days.

The latter can be easily solved via me sending in a membership application, so I'm struggling to see any benefit in building a wall between enthusiasts.

If it is done in a bid to bring up membership subs to help the finances, there are very serious gains to be had elsewhere: Like the extreme cost of Viva Lancia that has enjoyed no scrutiny for many years.  Having been a committee member and close to publishing sources, I can assure you there is meat here - in a big way.



Title: Re: Lancia Video Group
Post by: ncundy on 07 September, 2007, 12:22:49 PM
I guess I didn't do my research properly  :-[, they must be in the minority though as I have never come across any, and I am a pretty regular searcher for infomation from forums. However I still stand by the rest, unless there is a legal issue - but it would be interesting to know what it is if there is one.


Title: Re: Lancia Video Group
Post by: l3hou on 07 September, 2007, 02:26:36 PM
Hi Neil

Don't think there is. If non-members material appears in VL but not on a forum that would be odd.

I think you must have a disclaimer (as all forums ask you to confirm) and some sort of "cui bono" - "in good faith" statement.

Moving on to happier items, is anyone going to RallyDay 22nd September? We've booked a stand and as at now, there are just 2 places left to be in the special paddock rather than public car park. A rally-related Lancia is required (not my, but RallyDay rules). But since Lancia is full of great rally cars, not so much of a problem!   You can order the ticket here: http://www.lanciasport.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=10

Does the restricting of access to the Forum have a purpose  ???, or is it a means of some miffed club directors proving a point?

Here's my 2p worth......Yes the AROC forum is restricted to members, but the webpages preceding it can be freely accessed and contain lots of useful information and ways into Alfa ownership and AROC membership.  For example, imagine that I wanted to buy an Alfa, let's say a 90, just to be obtuse.  I go to the AROC site, click on classifieds and hey presto, I'm presented with a selection of cars on offer from AROC members.  While I'm there I can join AROC now that I have my new Alfa. Next, I can look up details of an AROC local group meet that I can take it to and meet fellow Alfisti.  I can also find details of AROC events that I might want to attend and even get some buying advice from the 90 register pages.

Now imagine the same on a members-only LMC site, I'm considering buying a Lancia and would like to buy a car from a member (surely they can be trusted), but I can't browse the cars for sale section  >:(.  I need some advice about the latest unidentifiable bit to fall off my Ypsilon, that now lives with the others in the glove box, but I can't browse the model specific section  >:(.  I wonder if there's a local meet near me - oops, no, I'm not a member  >:(.  Maybe I'll consider an Alfa 90 after all......

As you can probably tell I'm baffled about this proposal. Maybe someone with a lower membership number can enlighten me?

Post by: fay66 on 07 September, 2007, 07:56:55 PM
Thank you Lawrence, much appreciated. ;D

JP says that there has been no scrutiny of Viva Lancia for many years, ??? Sorry JP, if you were at AGMs then you obviously haven't been listening,  at Many AGMs that I have attended over the 14 years I've been a member, it frequently is a subject of debate, but it has always been decided (If you don't join in, sorry but you're in no position to complain, even if a few members who can't attend are the exception) that the Membership as a whole, prefer to keep the it, & welcome it's arrival every month. over the years it has been reduced in size & at least once there has been an issue that covered 2 months.

I'm for non members being able to access certain parts of the forum, but once again as shown here the current subject has been hijacked, have a look at the heading of this discussion.
I also belong to the Mercedes Benz Owners Club & while non members can look at events & the club site in general, only members have access to the forum or any technical information.

And as for barriers and walls, until about this time last year as far as I am aware that condition didn't exist, even if there were a few members who resented newer models not being proper Lancia's.

Brian

You know what they say about assumptions....

The subject of my post is NOT Viva Lancia as a magazine, it is its cost. Please read the post again.  I'm banned from creating new posts, so I must allow ourselves the cheeky use of hijacking - restrictions which other Lancia forums (excepting Monteconsortium) don't have.

As for "barriers", you've also assumed I'm talking about model of cars. I'm talking about enthusiasts talking to each other and methods to either enhance it or limit such communication.

There is a lovely irony in your line "it has always been decided" which brings me onto my last point:  If we've done what we've always done, we can't be surprised to get what we've always got.

And as for "I far as I am aware that condition didn't exist"....  just because people don't read about a subject in a magazine doesn't mean it doesn't exist.  This forum - and all forums - are the only way people can comment and communicate without needing the permission of editors... as far as I am aware.

 ;)


Title: Re: Lancia Video Group
Post by: fay66 on 07 September, 2007, 10:23:56 PM
Hi Jp,
I don't make a habit of assuming what other people think, I'm not a mind reader; I obviously made it hard to understand, so I'll try to simplify  it.
I also was referring to the cost of the Viva Lancia, hence my comment about 2 months being covered in 1 month, this was to reduce the cost, cost is also the reason why there are fewer pages in Viva Lancia these days than there used to be.
 
Unless I was asleep at any time, I am unaware of any great stand by yourself at any AGM on this subject.

In regard "cheeky use of hijacking", read taking liberties. if you want to post, rejoin the club, same goes for influencing change.

As for my "Lovely Irony" If you'd read the next sentence in context, you would see it's not a case of it always been decided Per Se, please read the reference, which basically means if you don't take part in the democratic process by being there & voting your choice, then you are hardly in a position to complain if things are not decided the way you would like them to be, That's called democracy & whether or not you like the result, what decisions that have been made regarding this matter, have ALWAYS been democratically voted on.
A view was put forward at this years AGM that the Forum should be the main information point, & that Viva Lancia would be placed on the forum, that way members could then download a copy or pay extra for a hard copy if they wanted a hard copy, something most people I've spoken to want, this resolution was soundly rejected by almost all those members present using their DEMOCRATIC VOTE.


I wasn't assuming you were talking about cars, please read first sentence again.
Your actions, justified or otherwise last year did a great job of building brickwalls, so it's a bit of the kettle calling the pot black, assuming that statement is allowed in these PC days. I am also perfectly aware of what is going on around me, I maybe retired but I haven't gone GA Ga yet, contrary to your implication otherwise.

And just for the record, I don't like being talked down to.

Post by: ColinMarr on 07 September, 2007, 11:45:54 PM
This has nothing to do with the Lancia Video group!

Could it be that what we are seeing here is another repeat of the self-inflicted wrath that J-P and his buddies wrapped themselves up in earlier this year? I have no knowledge of what the Committee make of this, but I would be very surprised and disappointed if there were any attempt to exclude non-members from posting on the ‘open side’ of this forum.

Please let’s not forget, if there is a rift in the club, it’s because J-P and his supporters chose to make it so. Hopefully, with time the rift will heal. It need not have happened.

Title: Re: Lancia Video Group
Post by: snapper8v on 08 September, 2007, 08:40:46 AM
Colin,
Seeing that I instigated this "new thread" (I & other non-member members can't start a new topic thread due to our ltd access to the forum) I thought I'd better reply. I had an e-mail saying:-

"It looks like the committee have plans to PREVENT anyone from posting on the LMC forum that is not a CLS member.

The reason for this is allegedly complaints that you and I have been advertising LANCIA events (that happen to be CLS ones) and that Club LanciaSport have a policy that you must be a member to post.  Which is wrong, as anyone can join our forum. Every new forum member on CLS comes to me - if they are not spammers, I release the userid.  Further more, CLS offer free trial club membership"

I don't think that I have publicly announced why I haven't resumed my membership with the LMC but it's basically that I didn't get any help/replies from the committee asking if the LMC could communicate with the Bristol owners club with the view to releasing the sale of rear light lenses for the Beta Spyder that I was running (the lens is used on a Bristol model). The reason that I asked is just in case a lens was broken, that would mean my car would be off the road for a while until a new/used unit was sourced, surely car clubs should help their owners to keep the vehicle on the road? There's a few other things as well, but at the time the LMC wasn't really doing anything for me, maybe in the futeure? There are factions with the club, as with any other club no doubt, that look down their noses at the "hooligans" (the Integrale owners, this is what we were called at La Mandira test track last year, tongue in cheek remark or not). It's remarks like this that has probably helped the formation of Club Lancia Sport. We aren't in competition with the LMC, it's a club for like minded individuals.

Forum's are a great way to communicate. I personally spend a great deal of time in them in the evenings whilst I'm working I'll take a few minutes out to see if anything new has popped up, this is the way forward. So Colin & everyone else who are reading this, this reply isn't a swipe at the LMC or talking down to you or anyone, all I was saying initially to Brian is that I may not have access to the forum very soon. If I'm banned again (like I was twice this year by hijacking threads to ask questions), then it's up to the likes of yourself & Neil to ask the question to the committee??? Thanks.

LAWRENCE


Title: Re: Lancia Video Group
Post by: l3hou on 08 September, 2007, 08:49:26 AM
Morning Colin

Well, the post is about a DVD that Lawrence is sending to Brian.  This be the case as the Turin people have not produced the one they promised - which noone at LMC Centenario HQ is doing anything about.

I do indeed hope for happier times.  We even had a committee member of LMC on the L2B and saw a lot of cars and LMC members at L2B2007s total of 111 cars. DiLambdas included.

Don't accept your last line though.  It all went horribly wrong LAST year (2006) at the AGM with some questionable coincedences.  But we won't agree here (I'd rather not say never), so for the minute, I'm happy to agree to differ with you.

Lets see what suprises come in the next weeks...


Title: Re: Lancia Video Group
Post by: Scarpia on 08 September, 2007, 08:51:51 AM
just had a look at the "stats" section underneath.
Makes sad reading . if you check top ten "topics" , only 2 of the threads are directly model related, pretty much all the rest are internal bickering and club politics.

Like Lawrence said, forums are a great thing but most people are inclined to say things in writing that they probably would not say in the pub during a discussion.This results in more escalations of relatively minor issues that wouldn't normally get out of hand.
Come on people, we have a good tool here to talk about the cars we enjoy so much and help each other to get more use out of them. I guess the politics and frustrations are there for some reason but whether its promoted by the existing hierarchy or a "would be" hierarchy makes little difference in the end.If only everyone would realise that its simply a car club..... and not a vehicle to ascend some perceived social ladder or achieve some power or financial status, the ordinary membership will be a lot better off. People are spending far too much time worrying about what others are doing (or not doing).Committees have work to do and if they don't do it they will be democratically removed the next time, otherwise we should let them get on with it and stop winging.

Post by: Harvey on 08 September, 2007, 03:59:10 PM
J-P,

On the issue of the Turin DVD, it is wrong to say that no-one cares and no-one has tried. The truth is that the DVD production was undertaken by arrangement of the Lancia Club Italia. If you can find a contract to enforce, please feel free!

So, er, back to topic... (or probably not from previous history)

Lawrence, I'll be in touch to take you up on the offer. Since it's unlikely that the real thing will appear this century, it'll be the best substitute. Anyway, if you stood next to the guy at the preview and he didn't complain then, I'll join you in risking the copyright police!
(And as a PS - did you get the rear lens you were after...?)

I dont know who you communicated with on the committee or when about the Bristol club but it was never raised by anyone at a meeting whilst I was on the committee.  If it had been raised I am sure it would have been followed up.

It has always been a prime purpose to help members keep their Lancias of all ages on the road.

Scarpia - too right!

The reality of committee work - "The workload! The workload! <tired groan>"

Still, at least the unlimited expense account and 3-course working lunches make up for it.

The YouTube group has now broken the 250 mark.  Lots of the usual rallying compilations, contining lots of clips from the already large number of videos on this this theme.  There's some nice Delta S4 stuff added too.  Other new additions: clip of Integrale (with a dump valve) yumping a bridge on the way back from L2B, footage of a Fulvia driving the Monte Carlo GP route at night and a Montecarlo doing a lap at Goodwood.

Don,
I asked an open question on the forum early last year. I've tried to retrace the question, but I can only go back as far as December '06, this is when the forum had a makeover if I remember?

Harvey,
No I haven't unfortunately. The current rear lenses have a couple of cracks in but are O.K. for the M.O.T., I was trying to make the car aesthetically pleasing. I could have bought an e-Bayer scrapper with perfectly good lenses, but haven't the space. Anyway, the cars now sold (to make way for my Dad's Rover P6) and will be going to Lowestoft in October.

This has also been happening to me on other videos. If you let it run all the way through, eventually, then when the time bar at the bottom is completely red, then you should be able to watch without being interupted.

is it not simply the case that if you play the film immediately your computer plays faster than the line can download it?. Thats why it plays ok if you wait till it is first fully downloaded on your computer.(i.e. the red bar is complete.)You need a slower computer or a faster line...

Contrary to ealier statements, I know thar Paul Baker has made numerous approaches to release the Biscaretti DVD.  I understand from him that Giorgio Formini has the only copy of the Biscaretti DVD and, at present does not seem to be very interested in doing anything about it.

Post by: snapper8v on 19 September, 2007, 11:00:13 PM
Peter,
You say that Giorgio Formini has the only Biscaretti DVD, is this the montage that I've uploaded or is it the full weeks video cover? If it's just the montage then O.K., but if he has access to the full weeks video cover, then it's a crying shame that it can't be made public, that'd be some souvenir of the weeks activities.

I understand that it is the DVD as shown at the Biscaretti.  Unfortunately Giorgio is no longer President of the Italian club.

ABW 163L, anyone know who it belongs to?
tried watching the video & I had the usual problem of it stopping every 5 seconds, left it for a while & tried again, it played for 2 minutes then we were back to the 5 seconds bit, just can't be bothered to watch anymore.

Think the Alfa was very lucky the Abarth didn't punt him off ;D
Great racing.

This Fulvia is now for sale on eBay, strangely with no mention of its taste of Emma Pollock video stardom. It belongs to a classic car hire company in Scotland. I saw it at Le Mans earlier this year so someone drove it a very long way.

I haven't added anything to the YouTube group for a while because the way you add videos has changed and it's become a bit of a chore, but I've had another go and you'll now find some choice selections for your enjoyment!

There are some new videos from the Delta's Geneva launch, plenty of the usual Austrian S4 hillclimb action and an in-car piece from the Gp5 Monte at Goodwood this March.

Here's the link http://www.youtube.com/group/lancia

I've just uploaded an original video on youtube, this was supplied to UK Lancia dealers showing how to service Bosch L-Jetronic fuel injection and another "how to sell a Beta"
The service videos go into quiet good detail so worth a watch if you have a IE Beta

Part 1: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=QsVIzpr-pYw
Part 2: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=oMU5l3zeEXg
part 3: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=KAaTQ_KnwuA

Also a training video on how to sell a Beta: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=t9F5q3xSr8E

Thanks to rikardo for burning the DVD

Thanks for posting these videos Tony.  The sales training one is particularly evocative!  It really demonstrates how video editing technology has moved on.  I wonder if there are any more similar videos languishing in people's garages for any other models?

Here is a video of the Fobello trip in 2006 - Hope you can download it so it plays smoothly like a 4 cylinder Lambda.

Video Group updated, including lots of New Delta reviews.  http://www.youtube.com/group/lancia

The one with Audi Quattro in the snow has great footage of the 1984 037 team playing in the snow.

In the Polish Club video there's a UK regsitered 16v Integrale, G646 PWT.

Well, the revised format of YouTube has defeated me in my attempts to keep the group updated with new videos!

There appears to be what looks like a new official Lancia Experience channel, mostly containing recent ads from Y10 through Y to Ypsilon:

I've been trying to hone my editing skills and learn some video effects, so created a video montage of Zagato Lancias. The music won't be to everyone's taste so feel free to turn the volume down! I thought Add N to X went quite well some Zagato quirkiness.

I have had an email from somebody who used to own ABW163L detailing a little bit of the history of the car.  I have copied the email below.

Not being a member of the club I thought those who posted the thread might be interested to know that this car belonged to me from August 1988 until about 1991.
It is Chassis No. 036250 and was first registered on 19th October 1972 in Palermo, Sicily. Its original registration was: PA35 0092 or at least that was Italian registration when I purchased it.
When I bought it, it was in basically good condition, having been imported by its Italian owner who had been living in Banbury, Oxon. The sun roof had leaked and the footwells were rotten but apart from that it was very good.
The car was taken to France in 1990 where it covered 1250 trouble-free miles but suffered head gasket failure on its return to the UK.  A brand new, old stock head was found and fitted by a Lancia Specialist (Belsyre Garage in Oxford) prior to my selling it to a man in Stoke on Trent.
It would appear that the car as undergone a decent restoration. It was red when I owned it and initially had the desirable Cromadora 1600HF alloys, which I sold to fund the work done. I believe they are on a Fulvia Zegato now.
I would be fascinated to hear what has happened to the car and its history since I owned it.
With all good wishes
Doug
