• Car coefficient change:
  Due to a mistake in the track design, the Indy gets an additional 20% "Power Gear Penalty" on this track.
• We knew we will experience difficulties with the new coefficient system. The first big problem showed up, the Indy is too strong on this track. Please comment and vote on what should be done in such cases. Check the poll in the forum
  Poll open for 5 days.

  Test lap with Audi...
• Bonzai Joe
  Aaaaand Jaguar! (in shape from Tarjan)
• Bonzai Joe
  You will fuck it for the sexual pleasure too?
• Mark L. Rivers
  20% Penalty for Indy... uhm... Will it be enough...?
• Zak McKracken
  Would you rather like 25%? Its never late!
• Zak McKracken
  I still hjate the indy, if for nothing else, then for ruining the game balance :-S
• AbuRaf70
  My congratulations to Ayrton for the extraordinary victory, and also to Mark, to have fought span to span during the whole competition.

  use audi or lancia...
• CTG
  Corvette, auto gears: 1:37.50; Audi, auto gears 1:33.85. They will be competitive with Indy using manual.
• Bonzai Joe
  No they won't... I dare you to even beat my Jaguar time with Audi
• CTG
  Really? Let's give a try to it!
• CTG
  I'll need 1:30.45...
• Anonymous
  another possibility: acura nsx.
• Dark Chaser
  Wow!!! What a incredible track!!! Is it yours, Zak
• Zak McKracken
  yes it is. I'm glad you like it, I usually don't have much success as a track designer
• Zak McKracken
  the red countach is back
• Bonzai Joe
  Yay, the red Countach I should drive it too, instead of the red Jaguar...
• Bonzai Joe
  Damn, this car sucks...
• CTG
  Track is really nice, especially with certain cars (not Indy of course).

  Why to choose Acura?

Feb 5

• Bonzai Joe
  Let's see how this Acura stuff works...
• Bonzai Joe
  Still not as good as Indy
• Mark L. Rivers
  I simply maxout the final of my first replay,... just to remain more near to my Indy opponent...
• CTG
  Yes, you need 1:28... but it's not impossible. I think Acura is good for 1:24-1:25.
• Bonzai Joe
  And yet another car...
• CTG
  Oh nice... you tried it!

Feb 6

• Bonzai Joe
  Whee... Maybe I can do a lap in every car Only Indy, P962, Corvette, Ferrari, Lancia left.
• Bonzai Joe
  This piece of useless junk doesn't have a high bonus for no reason.
• Bonzai Joe
  I am talking about the Corvette ZZZZZ-1
• CTG
  Time: 1:29.85 Correction on C81 29.5% With correction: 1:03.30 Car: Acura NSX Color: Red Gearbox: Manual Opponent: None Track name: ZCT81
• CTG
  Ending is still shitty...
• CTG
  what if you leave out cork up/downs and drive on the "lakeside"?
• Bonzai Joe
  I tried that a lot with the Indy and got penalty time, but maybe it's possible with other cars...
• CTG
  It gave one second advantage with Acura.
• Bonzai Joe
  It did? I got about 1 second disadvantage... Are you sure you are driving the corkscrews well enough?
• CTG
  If your theory works, my time should be 2 seconds faster than now...
• CTG
  (better than Ayrton's result)
• Ayrton
  then the NSX don´t get PG penalty ??
• Ayrton
  then the NSX don´t get PG penalty ??

Feb 7

• Bonzai Joe
  I've been thinking it should. Not as much, because it only goes into power gear in the last part of the track, but still. Anyway, I prefer using the Jaguar... And Ayrton, I'm sure you can beat us in the other cars too
• Ayrton
  I´m under 1´ with some cars, but indy still being the best...
• Ayrton
  Until Zak raises the % again. Next ?? 50% ??
• Anonymous
  alain played another 100 hours...
• Zak McKracken
  no more percentage changes as announced...
• Chulk
  Let's see...
• Bonzai Joe
  Yay, +1 LTB for me
• Duplode
  Despite strong evidence in contrary, I still call this lap a warm up... :-/
• Duplode
  OK, a bit more sane now...
• Zak McKracken
  I like how colorful the scoreboard is

Feb 11

• CTG
  But still: Indy is the winner.

  Brillant Chulk, congratulations! That will be a positive factor in my motivation for this race...
• Chulk
  That is great news, Duplode! Thanks guys.

  Welcome Turkey, may your passion for stunts go on..

  Welcome to Turkey in the Stunts world. Don't forget the car bonuses/maluses that are used in ZakStunts 2008 competition. This rule may seem quite complicated at first for newcomers, but it's not so hard to understand. ;-)
• Zak McKracken
  And an official welcome to Turkey! I'm glad you joined, and brough another country on the "Stunts World Map" May you enjoy your time spent here! You're welcome in the forum too!
• Bonzai Joe

  1 - BJ: LOL, 2 - Zak: Australia is not new on the map (remember dv8, Idiot, Loza, Blink, CUDGE, Lip, Pentamax, Vajhra, ACE, Black Massacre, Frosch, John Fargo, Lonewolf, Lukey07, MattyD and Nick); 3 - Diesel Joe is in Australia, isn't he?
• AbuRaf70
  Hello Turkey: With my 74 years, I also welcome you, in the same form that they received me behind 4 years. That it is for a lot of time.

Feb 22

• Duplode
  Hi Turkey, and Welcome to our lil' fraternity! Interesting observation: with your arrival, it's 6-4 to South Hemisphere vs. north on the scoreboard... (@ veterans: has that ever happened before?)

  WELCOME TURKEY! Enjoy racing with all these maniacs! BTW, He's the only racer from an English speaking country... Strange.

• CTG
  i'm drunk
• CTG
  AGAIN!!! wheeee
• DieselJoe
  Being drunk at 19:58 AND AGAIN at 19:59 is REALLY crazy!
  
  Another crazy thing are the speeding penalties in Turkey's country. Some days ago an australian letter arrived here... I have to pay 196 $ for having driven 10 km/h too fast!!! Holy fucking shit!
  
  But nonetheless, welcome Aussie!

  @Bonzai Joe:
  On friday there was only half a bottle of wine for me... but yesterday I really gave my best! Road-bowling (if that is the correct translation for "Boßeln") is a very hard sport. I can't remember how I got home, my clothes are muddy and i feel totally fucked.
  Böff!

  Hello, Freddy... Welcome...!!!

Feb 27

• Chulk
  Great! Another new racer. WELCOME FREDDY!!! LTB +2 for me. Yippie!
• Duplode
  Always good to see new faces around - welcome Freddy!
• Krys TOFF
  Welcome aboard the Stunts community Freddy. :-)

• Chulk
  Zak, I think the clock is still counting LT hours. It's 22 until deadline and I hve 384, let's check in a few hours.
• Zak McKracken
  yes it does indeed. I'm looking up the bug...
• Zak McKracken
  fixed!

• OK, let's do finally a proper Admin's comment! :)
  The second track of ZakStunts 2008 has finished, and the winner is: AYRTON!!! Congratulations fly to him - he truly did magic with his superb skills sitting in the ACURA.
  But let's not forget about the second on the podium, Chulk, who was brave enough to fight the Indy dominance mid-month - and eventually find a car to beat it with. Maybe the +2 LTB rewards him enough for not winning this battle.
  Again, I would like to tell sorry to all of you becaouse of the troubles with the coefficients this month. Probably it affected Mark L. Rivers the most, who stayed in his favourite car and despite all the tricks he did flying in powergear, he "only" finished 3rd. Sorry mate, really, but the game balance had to be kept. :(
  Also big thanks to all the new racers who joined this month, welcome Turkey and Freddy! I hope you both like playing Stunts online, despite all the hardships and the damned replay handling, and I hope you'll stay with us for a longer time!
  As for the new track: I honestly tried my best to design an Indy dominance-free, but still enjoyable track. I hope to see some new cars on the podium this time, well we'll see. Remember, all he coefficients had the fractions chopped off. The deadline is the end of the month, but if you start early, you'll learn the track better, so FASTEN YOUR SEATBELT!

  It's still counting leading time. Krys has one hour.
• Zak McKracken
  testing of ZCT82 just started
• Mark L. Rivers
  Let's see what it will happen...
• Zak McKracken
  update in progress!!!
• Chulk
  Uh! 2 minutes away from final result! BTW, Mark is 1 hour of leading with his last replay too. Still trying to find the bug, Zak?
• Zak McKracken
  yep, there must be another bug. I'll slap it down!!!
• Zak McKracken
  update done! (looks like some bug was at the hosting, 15 minutes of SQL transactions lost)
• AbuRaf70
  Congratulations to Ayrton, Chulk and Mark...!!!
• Zak McKracken
  Red Countach Power!
• Mark L. Rivers
  Thanks AbuRaf70! Congratulations to Acura drivers! I'm happy to have realized the absolute best time...
