Default Torrent question

If i was to upload torrents of v8 super car rounds, un altered, would that be illegal ?
I am thinking of adding to my website (which i dont know if it is legal itself) torrents of V8 rounds for people that miss them.
But if it could cause trouble i wont worry about it.
Regards

Luke

Don't know, but it sounds like a good idea to me!

I don't think it's strictly legal, but I reckon it's a good idea and I would certainly download and support the torrents.

I'm sure there'd be some legal ramifications over it but you could always do so anyway until you're told otherwise lol.

However it's not like you're selling the episodes so maybe it you'd be right ?

Bugger it, just do it.

Xvid has the best compression, I'm pretty sure all of the torrents on tv show torrent sites like btefnet use Xvid
