Default Playback speed (rate?) in Vegas...

Hello all

I'm a total noob at this, I've done some work in WMM, and it got me interested in editing, so bare with me if my questions are a bit.... "noobish".

I have just started to use Sony Vegas Movie Studio 9 (Platinum) and I have one question:

I would like to playback at a high speed, like 60x or even more, is that not possible in Vegas MS 9? To describe what i mean with speed: in Vegas the term "Playback rate" is used, I do not know if this is what I'm looking for, 'cause when I increase it to 4 (maximum) I cannot see any difference in the preview window. The movie I have recorded is just out through the window at som clouds for 19 minutes. Now I want it to look like the cloudes are passing by at a tremendous velocity.

How do I do that? I know about the Ctrl+LMB-drag, but I can only get it to 4x (in this case, the clip is compressed to 1/4 of its original size). Do I really have to speed up 4x, render, import, speed up 4x, render, import... you understand?

Please advise...
