Sadly I don't have a DreamPi or other ways of connecting my DC to the Internet, so the best I can do is copy the save from my VMU to my PC using Dreamshell. Don't know if the file format that results can be then converted to the formats mentioned on that website.

If nothing else, I assume someone with a DreamPi could copy it to their VMU using the same method, then upload it themselves.

Did some research and found a tool that could convert the 'raw' saves into .dci files. For some reason that site won't allow me to upload them, so maybe someone else will have luck with it.
The 'DCMRACER_CHM' is the Grand Prix save, the other is system settings or whatever.
And for good measure, here it is in VMS+VMI format as well.

Yeah, I tried uploading the DCI files but throws this error for me.
Dunno what's up with that.

"Great", yeh same error here!
pc! Expanding your DL section in Dreamcast-friendly DC-Live with this among more saves would be a hit!

Awesome thanks Tarnish! Also I mentioned the vmu uploader in the chat..he said he diddn't have the coding skills to implement such a feature. Anyone else still playing this game? It doesn't seem to get as much attention as I thought it would in the DC community.
