  Two obvious tricks are still missing from these replays. One of them is a jump from the corkscrew to the top of the tunnel. The other one seems to be a bit more difficult, but still not impossible. No spoilers, please.
• CTG
  @Duplode, where are you?

• Seeker1982
  Happy birthday from your teammember Seeker, too
• Seeker1982
  btw Did CTG have spikes or something on his tires? I know where I loose time but for me it's utterly impossible to race that fast :/

• CTG
  Reason: I am cheating. Btw my current lap is pretty weak, maybe enough for a 4th place.

  @CTG FBI, open up!

  Hi guys, a friend just told me about how he loved Stunts as a kid and I told him of that time in 2003/2004 when I took part to a Stunts competition. Well, good to know this is still going after 16 years (and that my password is still the same, time to change it). Maybe I'll try again and bring him here too!
• Seeker1982
  Than welcome back Guga - and yes Zak stunts still going strong
• Seeker1982
  Btw @CTG I wasn't serious about you cheating, that's why the winked smiley I guess some may think I would cheat in/for GAR-races
• afullo
  At least this site do not bother you with expiring passwords Welcome back, and let the wheels roll, as usual!

• Duplode
  Welcome back, Guga! At least one of your old teammates is still around

  In other news, there is one day remaining in R4K's current round. It's a good challenge with the Indy; give it a shot! http://r4k.fnhost.org/index.php?page=race&race=2020-04
• CTG
  @Seeker1982 : yeah, I'm always kidding, too. Especially with Rotoi.

• Zak McKracken
  guys, Marco live streaming Stunts GAR is a lot of fun, make sure to catch him next time!
• Zak McKracken
  Well, @Marco, this is thanks to you Some bored moments at work, finding your live stream on YouTube, and after a two year long leave I'm back. I can't promise continuous presence, but for me it's GAR only from now on, strictly casual
  2:02.09
• Seeker1982
  Hello Marco, here's my answer lap
  1:49.59
• CTG
  oh, Rivers is back
• Marco
  Great Seeker !!! You are amazing on Gar. I will try again
• Marco
  Ctg, I was faster than Rivers. I m still waiting for your Knight Rider car.

• dreadnaut
  Hello @Zak! Nice to see you around 🎉 Casual GAR? I'm in!

  Ristoooooo...run the GAR !!! Run the GAR

  61° N... nice, although it is not sufficient for midnight sun, it is enough for having natural light all night long in June!
• Marco
  Seeker do you accept a 15 or 30 minutes challenge with Delta. Someone share us at the same moment a circuit e we race . When the time ends, we share our result. The fast one wins. What do you think ?
• Marco
  You are too fast here, too much fast. I can match your lap but I need to do everything perfetc . Please record a video with a mobile phone behind you that shows without any doubt your skill . You must not reach 2:21 again obiously but at least show us how you play for real. I'm going to definitively give you the crown e prepare a shirt for the GAR STUNTS CHAMPION OF THE WORLD. I must be 100% sure that you are not cheating.
• Seeker1982
  @Marco I have a dosbox-recorded viedeo of me driving that last GAR-lap of me - and every posted final GAR-lap I've ever done on my HDD, which i could upload to Youtube But If I remember correctly you've already crowned myself GAR champion and your successor in GAR, and you also said this in a few youtube.-videos of yours, so you you saying I must proof myself is kinda bad taste How do the others (Duplode, dreadnaut) see this?
• Seeker1982
  btw: note to myself: I must'n run Dirt Rally 2 and Dosbox/Stunts at the same time due to the high input lag in Stunts this creates Noted this as I tried a evaluation run
• Marco
  Hi Seeker , yes you are right but the Delta is my car. I'm not saying that you are cheating but I'm saying that you are too fast (Duplode, Risto, Dread would think the same). I joined this Gar that you was at 2:28 . My first trial without knowing the circuit was only 3 seconds slower and then in only 5 trials I have overtaken your laptime and this was in streaming live on my channel. Then you fast come back with 2:23 and finally 2:21. This doesn't mean anything, maybe you had no enough competition to push much more before but your corner skill is really too fast in this lap. I did 0.60 slower than you gaining much higher top speed on straight so this means that you won on corners and you made them all perfects. Dosbox video is not enough for a skill like yours or like mine because dosbox video is editable. I show my skills live sometimes. Yes I'm interested in other opinions too . Risto, Duplode ?
• Seeker1982
  @Marco that 1st GAR-ap was only 2:28min cause I didn't want to scare other drivers away with some laptime they don't have a chance of beating. If I'd known you compete in GAR my time would have been quite a bit faster in the 1st place To put it short: the 2:28 was my first completed GAR run which was legal, and after you joined the GAR competition I improved it to the 2:23 within about 30mins But as I'm writing this I'm uploading a video on youtube of a small stunts session of a low 2:23 where I recorded the whole process (starting stunts, selecting car+track etc)
• FinRok
  Hi! @Seeker1982 FinRok here! Why dont you show a "live" replay to show the proof cause you're compromised? I hate to argue but that name of the game!
• Seeker1982
  @FinRok atm I'm uploading such a video but i can't record from the outside with a camera or handy because I'm pretty much always alone (Asperger-Syndrome/ASD anyone?) Edit1 - full session 2:23,25 Edit2 - How i record gar-replays via dosbox nowadays 2:21,60):
• Marco
  No need a live , just place a mobile phone in a position that take the keyboard and the screen, it's not hard, if you want I show you how to do, and run at your best. No need of a 2:21 obviously . Check my replay 2.22, you can also improve.
• dreadnaut
  There are no judges on the GAR competition, nothing to win, and the G stand for "Gentlemen". I don't particularly need proof for anything, but I think it's fair if @Marco wants to see a recording. That said, I'd be fine with an in-game recording. Asking for a third-person video is an extra layer of paranoia
• FinRok
  WE need live proof if he's compromised. As a Major i cannot accept!
• Marco
  Hi Dread my friend, here we are talking of the best of all the best. I think It's normal to ask something more. Not in the name of ZakStunts or of the GAR championship rules, but I'm asking in the name of all the Gentlemen Stunts Racers. I trust in him , I think he is the fastest racer i have ever seen in my life. For this reason he must show something more as I do in my channel live. Anyway to do a live maybe is more difficult and extra paranoia yes. It's also true that to run a lap with this speed there s need of several missed trials (so a live could be frustrating) . So I think it could be enough an outside record as i explained ... Place the camere to Take the keyboard/fingers and the screen . No need of other people.

• dreadnaut
  "I trust in him ... For this reason he must show something more" — I don't follow your logic, but do what you prefer
• Duplode
  Since my name was mentioned: (1) @Marco: "[...] but I'm saying that you are too fast (Duplode, [...] would think the same)" -- Not really, no. (2) @FinRok: I'm not sure what you mean with "cause you're compromised", but I can't think of a meaning of "compromised" that would right now apply to Seeker. (3) My personal feeling about the videos here is that deeming the DOSBox recordings insufficient and demanding more than that is quite comparable to the anti-Meganium mid-00s ghost paranoia, and would merit a similar answer.
• FinRok
  @Duplode my term compromised is a military term meaning that you're under suspect and need for approval of your actions! that menans in this case of scenario live proof of hes actions or race period!
• Marco
  This Duplode fast lap changes all the cards.I show my cards then, my first real intention was to celebrate Seeker. I'm making T-Shirt of the best dos gamer in the world, dos emperor , etc. and i wanted to make one for Seeker as the Fastest Stunts racer because, in my opinion, the fastest gar racer is the fastest stunts racer. Talking with FinRok we have understood that if you want to trick is quite easy with the dosbox video too . So it's good for me that i have asked to Seeker to show me 100% his skills but, my big mistake (and i apologize with him for first and with you for seconds) was to ask that here in the site involving the community. It would be better to talk with him in private mode. I have always liked to show my skills and so I have not thought that asking for a more real video could offend. I repeat that was my mistake. But now there's a problem ... Duplode is going too fast on GAR as he has never done. Or I'm too old and my feeling limit has changed without I noticed that ... or I'm feeling confused
• Seeker1982
  @Duplode congrats to your GAR-lap,I always knew your extremely fast on GAR too if you really tried Annyways, I don't have anything in my room where I could place my handy on in order to see my Keyboard and display, so I would need someone to hold my handy for half on hour or so.. I don't know if any of my few mates I have would be willing to do this because they are all are in their fifties or even 60s @Marco did I understand you correctly you want to talk to on via PM?
• Marco
  I have not gained the best top speed on the banked road and I have entered and exited too slow the halfpipe. The rest almost perfect for my point of view.
• Marco
  Seeker, I don't understand if Duplode has never taken seriously the GAR ... He reached 2:21 in few trials while I needed days. We must wait for him to understand the point. Anyway both of you, gentlemen, have not showed your 2:21 video )). This is mine
• Marco
  Joking aside,I'm too old to compete against you.After this strong demonstration, I would like to know if Duplode can accept a real challenge against you on GAR. About him i cannot have any doubt, he plays professionally since 20 years, he knows any limit of any car in any corners. He is the Champion of all the Champion of the ZAKSTUNTS site. But GAR is another thing, be the best on ZAK doesn't mean to be the best on GAR. Finrok wins against me on ZAK but he lost on GAR. You are young here and you are demonstrating to be super super fast. I want to see you run for real a 2:21 or a 2:22 low could be good. Do you think this can be done ?
• Seeker1982
  once again, I can only do dosbox-recorded videos of me doing a stunts-session - I don't have anyone willing to film me and I don't have a place for my handy to stand so that you can see my keyboard and computer screen. It was always so - stunts and other games - incl. hardcore-racing-sims like Assetto Corsa or GTR Evolution - I made videos of on my youtube-channel This is me driving a low 2:23 in GAR
• Seeker1982
  I have a new and improved GAR-time for you to sink your teeth in, I hope you will accept it as valid since I recorded the stunts-session Peace all
• Marco
  I teach you a story, when i joined this community, a very fast guy named CTG told me after only 2 races that he was sure i was a ghost driver of a previous very fast italian racer , Mark Rivers ( to be honest he is still continuing to say that ) .That's not true but I took that as a very big compliment that push me to demonstrate that I was also better than Rivers. If someone says that I could be a cheater it would be a super compliment to me and I would take a chair, my mobile phone, several books or simply a piece of scotch to attach the mobile to the chair and I would show my fingers in action in 5 minutes ... I would never call someone to record me playing stunts. 2:23 is a very nice lap but 2:21 is another thing and you have not recorded your 2:21 . Duplode said that a dosbox recording video is enough , ok I could also agree with him but by the moment is not present your 2:21. I'm not saying that you are a cheater and to be honest I still don't think that you are but i expected a different reaction. Here we are not talking about the 10th place of the scoreboard, here we are talking of the fastest stunts racer of the world, because this means to win GAR races. It's a serious thing ).
• Seeker1982
  Not a 2:21 I did this while trying to record a complete stunts-session; I'm unsure about when I'll upload the stunts-replay-file:
• Marco
  Anyway yesterday Duplode has done an incredible GAR demonstration reaching 2:21 in a while that i didn't expect by him considering his previous GAR demonstrations. I though he was fast but not so fast. So That let me think that he was not focused in the previous GAR races. Then If he will decide to do not compete on GAR against you (because he doesn't like or he has no time), i will focus on your skills otherwise you will have a much bigger problem than find the scotch to attach the mobile to the chair. Yesterday He did a couple of 2:21 in some minutes ... wow.
• Marco
  I have watched that. I love that you shared the entire session with the mistaken laps. I have seen that you have also run several other 2:21. He has surely a super Q.I. (Very intelligent man), more than normal, I know that FinRok , Duplode , we know what does it means to drive so fast, Is he the fastest , we all agree ? Duplode do you still want to compete on GAR with him ? Anyway I want to see his fingers on the keyboard, not only because he could be a cheater but first of all because he could be amazing . Frank, find the scotch and attach the mobile to the chair ... then record. No need a live gaming session, you can record the best lap when you want. Let's wait for Duplode answer
