Dragons in motion!

Rare footage of the racers in motion! The movies are in Windows media format. Most Windows systems should play these without problem so long as you have the Windows Media Player. A great alternative is the Ultraplayer. I hope to have the movies available in avi or MPEG in the near future for non-Windows users.
