• Alan Rotoi
  @Alain I forgot that comic! How many memories! I'm not sure if it was published complete back then, didn't it?
• dreadnaut
  @Alain, it that's alright, I've added your PDF file to the hosted downloads: https://zak.stunts.hu/dl/stuntsvalhalla.pdf

• Mortimer McMire
  Good to see you back on the scoreboard @Ryoma! Will we be seeing you more often or is your schedule still not allowing full commitment for racing?
• Ryoma
  Thanks @Mortimer.. In fact I'm moving of about 400km so it's difficult with the bought of the house etc... Imagine that I don't have time to test the 11 news cars from Zapper
• Frieshansen
  Thanks for the congratulations, guys!
• Argammon
  Happy Birthday 🎂 🎈🎈🎈 @Frieshansen!

  Happy Birthday @CTG! 🍺

Jul 4

• Duplode
  Great news about Hyperion! It's very positive to see a new team taking shape. For those of you who are racing without a team: don't hesitate!
• Mark Nailwood
  A small improvement with a funny finish.
  1:17.05 A
• Spoonboy
  Haha how is the view up there @Mark Nailwood?! I've also noticed some bouncy behaviour from the Oxia.
• HerrNove
  I have a short replay where my Oxia goes through the first tunnel with the wheels on the right wall, as if it were a pipe element. That small spoiler on the back is surely doing a great job!
• Alain
  He're is a rpl I got riding the first tunnel's roof.
  1:13.42
• Ryoma
  Allez Alain !
• Spoonboy
  @HerrNove that happened to me with a cork/tunnel combination a season or two ago, with the Lancia. Trying to jump from cork to tunnel roof, I entered the tunnel, 'landed' on the right-hand wall, and had enough speed to stay there the whole tunnel length! Unfortunately I couldn't keep it in for the complete lap...

Jul 5

• Alain
  After a 20-year intermission, I'm back on stage—like fine wine, I only get better with time. Cheers to making up for lost time and turning 'once upon a rpl handling time' into 'happily replay handling Uranus ever after'!
  1:11.02
• HerrNove
  Well done @Alain ! But, your princess is in another castle!
  1:09.87
• Alain
  This lap is for tourists.

  1:10.38
• HerrNove
  Let's recover some social distancing. Whoever wants to beat this must also take care to reproduce the celebrative jump after the finish line
  1:09.41

Jul 6

• Duplode
  That's a nice battle! Meanwhile, lemme give the GAR scoreboard a try as well.
  1:22.02
• Alain
  Overall, it’s a thrilling blend of technical flat, high and banked corners that rewards precision but punishes even the slightest slip.

  @MiDiaN, sure is! Also, happy birthday!
• Alain
  I guess I need to practice more. You got the best of me this time.
  1:24.64
• Alain
  Well, that didn't go as planned. I'll be back stronger next time, just you wait!
  1:10.29
• Alain
  I can't believe I lost. You must have gotten lucky. Let's race again!

• Spoonboy
  Happy Birthday @MiDiaN!
• HunterBoy344
  Just tried driving manual for the first time... it was pretty rough! Any tips on good shifting and finding power gear lines?
  2:10.41
• Mortimer McMire
  @hunterboy, community member @Overdrijf Made a couple of video’s on how to play the game. It helped me a lot when I started playing so maybe it will help you to! The name of the YouTube channel is Stunt-Retro Game.
• Mortimer McMire
  And @Hunterboy, joining a team is also a good idea. The help you'll get from the more experienced drivers will definitely improve your game! For now @Alain is starting a new team and is looking for new drivers! Hyperion Racing Team
• Alain
  @Hunterboy344 Shift by hand, then eye, then ear then by instinct. https://ai.invideo.io/watch/MhiQnNEN7mN
• Alain
  The Bug: Sometimes, if you shift gears at just the right moment, the game gets a little confused. To make this bug happen, you need to shift gears at a very specific time and place. It's like finding a secret button in the game that makes your car zoom ahead super fast. It takes a bit of practice, but once you get it, you can leave all the other cars in the dust! For reference read https://wiki.stunts.hu/wiki/Power_gear and https://wiki.stunts.hu/wiki/Power_gear_bug
• HerrNove
  @HunterBoy344 I will also mention that studying existing replays is very insightful. @Duplode has a replay with the Indy that shows a possible interpretation of the track with some power gear sections. That said, it could be that this track is more amenable to traditional driving.
• Alain
  Exactly, @LeoRamone planted buildings on every strategic place, don't try PG, guys. Or leave it to professionnal stunts drivers on closed circuit.
• Alain
  I'll get you next time! That was a tough race, but I'll come back stronger.
  1:22.52
• Mortimer McMire
  Joining the Mile High club!
  1:14.57
• HunterBoy344
  Watched @Overdrijf's video and tried to improve a little based on what I learned. Thanks for linking it @Mortimer!
  1:28.41
• Mortimer McMire
  Glad to be of help @Hunterboy. And to be honest, after one and a half year of racing shifting correctly is still on of my biggest problems (and with that timeloss). So take your time and don’t get discouraged if it doesn’t work the first few times. And again, I highly recommend joining @Alain’s team, you can learn a lot from his skills!
• Alain
  Another victory for me! It seems like I'm on a roll today. Want to try your luck again?
  1:22.02
• Mortimer McMire
  1:14, then 1:13 and now a 1:12. Hopefully my next laptime will be in the 1:11!
  1:12.73
• HunterBoy344
  Cut off another 4 seconds! Starting to get the hang of shifting, downshifting is still hard with the Enter key though. Just found out from the Stunts guide videos about how air time is always faster and a lot is starting to make more sense! I will consider joining @Alain's team.
  1:24.64
• HunterBoy344
  Just realized I'm just one second behind @Frieshansen, too! If I drive a little better, I might get my first non-last-place finish
• HerrNove
  Downshifting with Enter? Strongly suggest you use A and Z for the gear shift instead!
• Alain
  According to the "Art of Stunts", a pilot must master the eight keys to achieve victory: the four arrows for acceleration, braking and direction, A and Z for shifting, and, most crucially, the Escape and Space keys for replay handling. As Stunts Tzu said, 'Know thy tools and know thyself, and you shall be invincible in the race. Remember manual shifting is good for prostate health'

Jul 9

• HunterBoy344
  @Alain and @HerrNove, truer words have never been spoken. A and Z is so much easier
  1:23.54
• HunterBoy344
  One more for the road! Finally, freedom from last place!!!!
  1:22.06
• Duplode
  Onwards and upwards, @HunterBoy344!
• Mortimer McMire
  A bit disappointed in you @hunterboy344. In C254, C265, C266 and C278 you also didn't finish in last place. So a you're already better than you think you are . But it's good to see your enthusiasm!
• Alain
  Roues droites Ryoma !
• Alain
  Yes! Yes! This is incredible! Of course, you did goof up in a Fireball back there. Let's race again -- I like this winning stuff.
  1:21.14
• HerrNove
  1:21 in a GAR is absolutely great stuff! Congratulations!!!
• Alain
  Prego, but I find this lap to be quite slow. The telemetry doesn't lie. It's okay; I'm starting to get a feel for the lap. I'm particularly slow at the Gutix slope, the Bonzai Joe banked corner, and the Ayrton elevated corner. The Ben Snel slope isn't ideal either.
• Alain
  Fellow Valhalla racers
• Duplode
  Why, that was me that was first, wasn't it? Rad!
  1:18.80
• Alain
  I can't believe I lost that one. You got lucky this time, but I'll be back for revenge!

  You can say what you want, but after @Alain’s return the shoutbox became a lot more lively 😂!
• Ryoma
  @Alain do you need help for the R5 Maxi ?
• Alain
  Yes my friend, I'm doing a side quest: I've started this R5 project yesterday morning and I don't know how to create a car. I spent the morning trying to use blender. I've also started the dashboard bitmap. I've opened stressed and carworks, browsed stunts wiki and online tutorials, explored car physics. I swallowed a lot of infos and I'm trying to digest it and make good use of it. I'll be in the chatroom, waiting for you.
• Alecu
  As today I finished my master studies, I race on ZCT288 with Porsche 962 IMSA.

• Ryoma
  @Alain sorry the chatroom doesn't work for me. First of all, you need a blueprint after you have to resize this blueprint in order to have the length of the car of about 1600 pixels (it's a small car). If you want, i will update m'y profile with my mail for a couple of minutes. It would be more easy ti explain you....in french lol

• MiDiaN
  here we go!
  1:09.28
• Stingray86
  Here's my VetteGAR. @KyLiE what an awesome ride!! Is that a 308? I believe the C4 corvette designers took inspiration from that vehicle when designing the C4. 308 and Testarossa are some of my dream cars.
  1:38.87
• Duplode
  Happy birthday, @HunterBoy344! And hello @Alecu and @Raskolnikovik -- many comebacks this month, nice to see!
• KyLiE
  Thanks @Stingray86! It's actually a 328. I'm a big fan of the C4 Corvette as well.
• HerrNove
  Happy birthday, @HunterBoy344! I just realized you are the one who developed the multiplayer system for Stunts, so congrats from a fellow modder!
• HunterBoy344
  Thanks, @HerrNove and @Duplode! Speaking of Stunts Online, actually making use of replay handling in the past few days has made me realize NoRH with only 10 minutes per track is really hard and kind of sucks. It'd be pretty easy to update the client/server to allow RH; should I do it?
• MiDiaN
  Hmm I'm starting to worry why my rival hasn't uploaded any replays yet. I was staying up late last night to battle for the 1st pos but nobody challenged me...
• Alain
  I'm truly disappointed by what I've witnessed since my return. Racers are being ostracized, replays are being delayed, and some are even ghosting each other. Meanwhile, others are stuck in their chairs every night, slumped over their keyboards, vigilantly watching for the slightest movement without making any moves themselves. In my view, true retribution and respect for the community's values will be achieved when each and every one of you drop the hammer down and submits a GAR replay for ZCT288. Redeem yourselves, derelict sinners, for the Stunts Oracle does not appreciate this circus one bit. Quick, send in the clowns.
• HerrNove
  Maybe they took mercy at me and allowed me some extra hours on the podium to get the +1 PTB Or maybe they are working on their secret power gear lap. The fact that no team member of Rolling Stunts posted anything after June 30th is worrying. Improving is obviously possible: combining Duplode's replay up to the “Gutix slope” and mine for the rest of the track, one could get a low 1:08.
• Alan Rotoi
  Also, @Alain, you arrived in a championship that was resolved too early. Anyway, there wasn't a race under 100 replays this year and that means a lot. There are other mini objectives like PTB points and car podiums but of course the primary mission in ZakStunts is to win the championship title.
• Alain
  Send more public replays for Stunts Oracle's sake it's only 10th of july. Have the balls.
  1:20.50
• Alain
  @Alanrotoi I arrived to raise hell and leave. The Stunts Bible, book of CAP 3:16 says: "For Stunts Oracle so loved the Stunts world that it gave its only solution, that whoever believes in it shall not perish but have eternal life on the tracks of Stunts Valhalla." Alain 3:16 says "I'll just whip your ass."
• Argammon
  Hello everyone, I am not hiding anything and did not even hit the track yet. I will either submit a list filler or skip the July race entirely. However, I plan to be back on the track in August. Happy racing.
• Mortimer McMire
  Slowly but steadily lowering my laptime. And finally in the 1:11's! Now let's go to the 1:10's!
  1:11.90
• Erik Barros
  Happy birthday @HunterBoy344!!
• Duplode
  Will this offering placate the gods, or will it draw their wrath upon me?
  1:08.08
• Alain
  Don't summon the great Stunts Oracle. Don't put our souls at stake. Please.
• Duplode
  @HunterBoy344 On the one hand, it feels like the coordination features of something like Stunts Online are specially useful for NoRH and near-NoRH racing, so keeping the focus on NoRH would make sense IMO. The event host can tune the time pressure of the session by adjusting the timer; alternatively, it could make sense to have as an option a "free" mode with no timer, in which the race ends upon someone's command. On the other hand, unlimited RH with live racing deadlines is, I think, uncharted territory, so maybe there's potential to explore that as an alternative mode!

  "Ask and you shall receive". Good that I did not waste effort trying to beat the very first time you posted, which I guess was just to tease the opponents. Good luck to the masters, I'll stay here with the popcorns for now.

  @AlanRotoi I saw you made a new cheat car, looks very nice. I like the power graph in the showroom screen being a simple vertical line. Are you going to make an official presentation?

  Reminder: For PTB counting purposes, lap time ties are broken in favour of the earliest posting time -- unlike final scoreboard positions, PTB minutes are never shared!
• Alain
  Soon
  1:09.55
• HerrNove
  (looking nervously at @Alain and @Spoonboy in the rear view mirror. Oh well, at least PTB +1 is in the bag) @Alain , what about dedicating the rest of the month to car building? After all, 4 is the perfect number: why ruining such a good positioning by going faster?
• Alain
  I came for racing, not to accept bribes. I know active racers who love bribing and getting bribed. I'm not that kind; I race for winning time, not for losing time. After all, why sell your soul for a few winning rpls when you can earn a kingdom with sheer speed, unbelievable tricks, and unyielding integrity? Let them have their backroom deals—I'll take the checkered flag of respect, fair play, and a clear conscience any day. I've helped others and have never been forgotten. True racing friends I admire, to this day. I was betrayed and never forgot some wraith maggots, some wolves I had the weakness of letting in, disguised in racers' jumpsuits. The man I see in the front view mirror is proud of his undefeated integrity. Don't get mistaken, life sucking soulless wolves, be prepared, I'll get my revenge, in this life... or in the Stunts Valhalla where walkyries sing high and grog flow aplenty!
• stanceboyCZ
  If you expect something from me, then don’t... I may be good, but still doing its flaws... Rather give me Peugeot 106 or Mazda FC3S RX-7... :-D

  @Alain that seems interesting. renault 5 in this game? what a miracle, i wonder where can i download it when it will be released... And quick question: Do you think you could try working on fiat coupe, peugeot 106 and daewoo espero? I’m just asking... You may read it on forum under topic "Cars Suggestions". Feel free to tell any dream car...
• Alain
  @stanceboyCZ That's not part of my plans. The R5 Turbo serves as a proof of concept for a point and click car body design adventure named : C.A.R.S. My dream is to enable anyone to design a car using three intuitive point-and-click tools: C.A.R.S.: Creation Assistant for Rendering Surfaces D.A.S.H.E.S.: Dynamic Assembly for Stunts of Hud and Electronic Systems T.U.N.E.S.: Turbocharged Utility for Navigating Engine Systems
• stanceboyCZ
  ah, my bad

Jul 18

• Ryoma
  One thing about the Fiat Coupe : the dashboard has the same color than the car.
• Zapper
  @Ryoma, thanks for your feedback There's always room for improvement!
• Ryoma
  @Zapper maybe I will change the 308, 328 and GTO Evoluzione by using your GTO

Jul 19

• Duplode
  @Ryoma On the Fiat Coupe: it would be so cool if that were possible to implement! I've always found it a bit annoying how the Indy is always yellow from inside the cockpit

  I modify the Ferrari 308 and 328 with the new shape created by Zapper for the GTO. I modify the Testarossa and I remarked that when the digit of the dashboard are between red and orange according to... no rule oO

Jul 26

• KyLiE
  @Ryoma, the Testarossa instruments are orange. It's a very deep orange, but unfortunately, they're prone to fading. I once saw a Mondial T, which has similar instruments, and they were almost white.
• Ryoma
  @Kylie thanks for the information. What about the orange/brown used by me in the new Testarossa or the new GTO by Zapper ?
• KyLiE
  @Ryoma, the colour looks good! It's as close as you'll get with the Stunts palette.

  Congratulations @Argammon, the lap you have achieved with your Oxia is frankly staggering. We know it is capable of some fun glitches, but those PG-esque moves are mind-blowing! A great track! I have especially enjoyed driving GAR here. I've fully embraced it in this race, and will do in future. It is informing/improving my driving style. Keep pushing!
• HerrNove
  Congrats to @Argammon, @Duplode and @MiDiaN. And congrats to @ShoegazingLeo for building a track attracting a record number of players and replays!
• Victor Narl
  @Argammon, my congratulations. you see I came, now keep your promise - you promised to participate in R4K if I come
• Victor Narl
  Wow our team is on the podium in this race!
• Ryoma
  Congratulations everybody, I'm happy for the Oxia. A great victory for the Peugeot.
• HerrNove
  I loved the car @Ryoma. I even went out to seek infos about it. A real pity that it was never put into production and that there are so few videos of it.
• Alain
  Racers come and go; nobody is irreplaceable. Your best replays will be gone. Promises only bind those who believe in them. You'll all be forgotten. Santa Claus doesn't exist. Idolizing someone with the middle finger is the only way to be sure he gets the message. All your purest goodness and vilest cruelties, your light and shadow, your truths and lies will vanish with the final glimpses of the universe's thermal death. But the text content "20% of the RPL sent in a Guinness World Record race with 206 RPL" on Zakstunts website will live on forever... on the wayback machine.
• Victor Narl
  @MortimerMcMire, thank you. I was planning to compete only in GAR, and Free is quite difficult for me. In the german parallel competition Dosreloaded (https://dosreloaded.de/forum/thread/8169-4d-sports-driving-stunts-jahrescontest-2025) there is a racer on Auto gearbox who is much stronger than me
• HerrNove
  > there is a racer on Auto gearbox who is much stronger than me /// @VictorNarl Just looked at the dosreloaded forum. I don't know what I'd find weirder, to lose against an auto gearbox or to be “gesiezt” by a fellow racer
• KyLiE
  Congratulations to @Argammon! That's an impressive replay. Also, congratulations to @Duplode and @MiDiaN for reaching the podium!
• Victor Narl
  @HerrNove, you haven't improved your result for a long time, because I could have reached it - you were a little lucky
• HerrNove
  @VictorNarl Good enough is good enough
• Argammon
  Thanks guys! I got a bit lucky to find two major tricks without having to spend too much time on it. @Victor Narl: I will send a replay to R4K as promised but can't promise regular participation - at least not this season. -- Finally, I would like to congratulate @Duplode and @Midian for completing the podium. @Midian is really unfortunate - missing the second place by 0.05 seconds again. Congrats also to @HerrNove for winning yet another amateur race. I also think the Hyperion racers did a good job. @Victor Narl posted a good starting replay considering he used automatic transmission and @Alain showed that he did not forget how to drive after such a long break. Böff dampening: < 1dB
• Duplode
  Results confirmed! Congratulations to @Argammon and MiDiaN, and to @HerrNove, @VictorNarl and @MortimerMcMire -- strong Am podium, fully within the top 10 in a field of 25 racers! Great first race for Hyperion Racing Team, too -- they still have two slots open waiting for you to apply ZC289 is ready to go, and the update should follow in the next hour or two. Thanks to everyone who took part to this record breaking race!
• Victor Narl
  @Midian, I invite you to take part in the competition at https://www.raceforkicks.com
• Mortimer McMire
  Quick question on using Bliss for official track creation. I see that there's an option to let bliss calculate the most probable track time per car. Is there any car in particular you can use to make sure the laptime is gonna be within the 2 minute margin?
• Duplode
  @MortimerMcMire There's no standard choice for that. Personally, I often reach for the IMSA cars and the Carrera as stand-ins for fast and slow cars respectively. If the bonuses in the previous month (and the adjustments you're planning to make) suggest a specific car will be very competitive, it's usually a good idea to account for it while testing. BTW, note that the Bliss estimates are OWOOT; shortcuts can shave several seconds off that.
• Duplode
  Update complete: ZCT289 — Lord of the Rings, by @Frieshansen, is open for racing! Fasten your seatbelt

  Oh, cool name! I wonder who is gonna be this months Sauron and who is gonna be Gollum 😂! And I guess we are gonna call @Frieshansen Celebrimbor from now on 😉!
• Alain
  If Sauron were struck by the main character syndrome and Gollum appeared as a good guy compared to the narcissistic, perverted traits of you-know-who, I would already have my cast. One day, Truth herself will climb out of the well, reclaiming her clothes from the backs of the liars who stole them. One day.

• HerrNove
  I have somehow the impression that @Frieshansen would like us to use a specific car on this track. But which one? The four enlaced rings at the bottom of the map are clearly a hint towards the OOOOxia, which shows good taste. Whatever, let's re-establish the manual gear supremacy, as anyone grown up on Test Drive and Grand Prix Circuit has the duty to do
  1:02.89
• Alain
  As always, as germans are very sincere and obvious people: he wants us to use the Audi QuattrO SpOrt, the 4 pOtatOes car.
• Mortimer McMire
  First (somewhat) serious lap. Have to agree with @HerrNove, this track is probably not my cup of tea. But maybe it will grow on us!

  Speed, Track, Driver The battle will be fierce on the track this month, but not for me. I will be on vacation in Morocco, my country of birth, with my family, by the beach and far from any connection. This is not a planned mindgame, a lie and a low blow, contrary to what some liar and trickster said and did last month. Battle on the tracks, give your best in plain view, not on the last day in the hidden and you'll belong to the Divine Stunts Valhalla. Bullying and howling like a wolfpack puppeted by a wraith during your earthly existence is what to pity. No Stunts Valhalla for those. ▦△△△ △▦□ □ △△△ △▦□□□ △△△▦△□ △△△□△▦ △△△△□△ △△△□△▦□△▦□△▦

  @Alain, and what about our team? what if someone wants to join and you won't be with us? are you leaving us?
• KyLiE
  @Alain, is that really necessary? Why do you have to be so anti-social? Why don't you let your driving do the talking instead?
• MiDiaN
  LOL @Alain! Ok then, here is my replay I did yesterday. Hope it helps inexperienced drivers! Good luck all! And have a nice vacation @Alain!

• HerrNove
  > “Hope it helps inexperienced drivers!” /// Not under the psychological aspect, that's for sure Not at my gaming PC for now but I'll watch as soon as I can. I'm curious of how a day-2 replay shaved 7.5 seconds out of my honest effort.
• Alain
  @Victor_Narl In vacations I'll remain available 24/7 everywhere from my phone but I will have no PC at hand to play. I'll be off the tracks from this WE till the last week of august.

  Thank you @MiDiaN, great replay you made that audi fly high. While others might watch your replays in awe, I'm on my knees crying in admiration. One day you might belong to the Stunts Valhalla.

  Turbo, Drift, Podium: As the championship gears up for another exhilarating race, the absence of Hungarian drivers on the starting grid is quite noticeable. For some, this void might seem like a loss, but for others, it represents an opportunity to see new stars shine and discover emerging talents.

  Tried the Countach yesterday and had my first-ever experience of how devastating the anti-PG can be. Hope I can learn from your replay how to avoid it. Anyway first place with a non-Audi, non-PG car is crazy.

  My lap on this track! DId it with my blue Porsche 962 IMSA!
  1:32.88 A
• HerrNove
  Indeed, the Lambo is not bad at all on this track, despite Arg using it more as rhetorical device (“I can beat you even with this”) than as competitive car.
  1:01.34
• Argammon
  @HerrNove: That is not the point at all. I usually do not start with the car I consider best suited for the track. Last month was an exception because I came back from vacation "close" to the deadline and did not have the time to race different cars.
• HerrNove
  Not sure whether best suited, but the Lambo is more fun. Going to candidate again for the “best time in wrong car“ prize.

• Victor Narl
  @HerrNove, Why don't you want to join some racing team? It doesn't oblige you to anything. In my opinion, racing in a team is more interesting.
• Alain
  "... society's one-directional mindset, which will lead it nowhere. it's surrounded by buildings filled with automatons in business suits, suffering through the blinding numbness of a microprocessed age." In that context, praise the loners and their Self-Sufficiency Creativity Innovation Deep Thinking Resilience Authenticity Peace Tranquility Observance and Insightfulness
• HerrNove
  @VictorNarl If I start something I like to take it seriously. The flip side is that I need to choose carefully what I commit to. Also, have you tried inviting the other racers without a contract?
• Victor Narl
  @HerrNove, Honestly, I haven't tried inviting anyone yet, and there are no candidates. Of the regular racers, only Zapper comes to mind, but he's unlikely to join any team because in all the years of participation, he's never joined anything.
• Victor Narl
  @HerrNove, I'm going to advertise on the leading Trackmania forums, where, if we're lucky, we'll be able to quickly recruit good racers for our team and then there will be no more places
• HerrNove
  @VictorNarl I wish you good luck, a mixed Stunts+TM team looks interesting! I understand the frustration of not having candidates, but launching a team mid-season means operating in a very illiquid market. All people now being free agents are probably in this situation willingly, e.g. I have already declined an offer from another team earlier in the season – and for the same reason.
• Argammon
  @Victor Narl: Which is the leading Trackmania forum? PS: Hunterboy asked to join your team last month but did not get any reply.
• HerrNove
  Understandable. Considering that Hyperion was started on the 2nd of the current month, I would have considered anyone asking to apply in June either a spy or a witch, and burned them at the stake ( ja, ich bin so penibel. Und neidisch von Leute, die gerade lange Urlaube machen )
• Argammon
  Last month -> during the last race. :X
• Alan Rotoi
  There are many racers from this year without team yet: https://zak.stunts.hu/seasons/2025 And some others from last year too. Maybe an invitation can make them come back: https://zak.stunts.hu/seasons/2024
• Victor Narl
  @Argammon, @AlanRotoi, there are only 2 free spots, unfortunately we don't recruit irregular racers.. I looked at last year, unfortunately I didn't find any candidates either(
• Victor Narl
  Stingray86 can be invited given his regular performances and past achievements
• Victor Narl
  and where is Heretic? has he left completely or is there any way to contact him?
• Alain
  Stingray86, are you a good sign for Hyperion Racing Team? (Psst, we found shortcuts on zct289) Are you interested in fighting for the team?

Jul 30

• Erik Barros
  Thanks for the birthday wishes!! @Spoonboy I'm still keeping a light pace, excessive RH left me with traumas lol @VictorNarl, I have Heretic's contact on Facebook, I can ping him and ask to see the shoutbox if you want.
• Victor Narl
  @ErikBarros, yes, if possible, write him an invitation
• Victor Narl
  Friker could also be of interest if he returned to racing, I also don't know how to contact him
