  • Ryoma
    @Spoonboy yes you can be proud! When will you release a car ?
  • Spoonboy
    @Ryoma hahaha that would require skills I can only dream of! I don't know how you create so many. The Spoon-mobile may have to wait - but never say never!
  • dreadnaut
    Now I'm imagining the Spoon-mobile, and I want to drive it 🥄
  • Spoonboy
    There is a creation of mine you can enjoy now - this month's R4K track! Head on over to https://www.raceforkicks.com/ where we will be using my track to drive the Mazda 787B made by @Zapper. Hope he (and all of you!) can join us for this race Smiley

  • Ryoma
    The last sector is very tricky....
    Lambo 1:03.54
  • dreadnaut
    Had to improve just a little bit to get a nice colour pattern on the scoreboard

  • Erik Barros

    Hey, @Dreadnaut! Happy Birthday!

Aug 4

  • dreadnaut
    Thanks again Grin As a reverse present, I've dug through some old archives and recovered most of the replays from the 2008 season. They can now be downloaded from the respective track pages 🎉
  • Frieshansen
    Late happy birthday greetings @dreadnaut!!
  • Frieshansen
    Sorry for the double upload of my replay - I got a blank page after the upload and then reloaded the page...
  • dreadnaut
    Clean up something in the back-end, could you upload it a third time? 🙏
  • Frieshansen
    done
    Lancia 1:02.28
  • dreadnaut
    All shiny this time, thank you! ✨

Aug 5

  • Ryoma
    Sorry @Spoonboy, you are always an amateur...lol
  • Spoonboy
    @Ryoma yes until @dreadnaut updates my points from ZCT276 Wink
  • Ryoma
    @Spoonboy but you are always quick...grrr lol Did you try Turbo Outrun Reimagined ?
  • afullo
    Happy (late) birthday, @dreadnaut!
  • CTG
    böööööööööööööööööööQööööff!!!

  • Gordon Freeman
    Alan an Zapper, you boys are just crazy 😄
  • Zapper
    Just racing the race! Wink
    Lambo 0:59.44
  • dreadnaut
    Thank you @afullo!
  • dreadnaut
    Look at that first-place battle, crossing the 1:00 barrier 😮💥

Aug 7

  • satanziege
    Great, that this competition continues! Definitely not my track :-D
    Lancia 1:39.07
  • Alan Rotoi
    Ooh! Welcome back @satanziege! Nice to see you around Smiley
  • Frieshansen
    What a spectacular fight for first place!
  • Alan Rotoi
    @Frieshansen indeed! @Zapper what color of car do you prefer? I mean for this wiki article: https://wiki.stunts.hu/wiki/Car_colours
  • Zapper
    @AlanRotoi, I have no specific color, normally I choose other color than car's default option.
  • Alan Rotoi
    Oh ok, no preferences for the article then Cheesy BTW what a nice track for a pleasent ride with Thunderbird. Anyway the pleasent ride was overwrited by the RH replay I'm sending now. I think it was convenient for the feeling of realism, to make a lower grip parameter for Thunderbird. Also the low acceleration of this car makes the feeling of this car is slower than LM002 when is about 20 mph faster.
    Thunderbird 1:05.63

  • Alan Rotoi
    New article! An interview to Argammon! https://zak.stunts.hu/articles/argammon-a-historical-reparation
  • dreadnaut
    Love it 🤩 Thank you @Argammon and @AlanRotoi!
  • dreadnaut
    There's also a new post on the homepage 😱

  • Mid-season update

    Hello awesome inhabitants of the Stuntsphere! Better get this update out, before the mid-season becomes two-thirds-of-a-season 🤪

    I'm staring at the scoreboard and the numbers look a bit like the Matrix to me. A table full of digits, but squint from the correct angle and you'll spot some hot battles and exciting races!

    @Argammon has stepped back for this season, and left @Duplode and @Alan~Rotoi to fight for the title of champion. With five races left anything can still happen, but Duplode seems to have the edge. Can Alan catch up with the help of leading-time bonus points?

    Just below them is where the scoreboard heats up! We have two old hands, @Zapper and @Mark~Nailwood, and two up-and-coming racers, @Frieshansen and @Spoonboy, all within a handful of points. The last one joined the prestigious Cork's Crew at the start of the year, the first new member in years and years! The prize of their contest might be the third step of the scoreboard, but each race shows how focussed they are. Together, they are also collecting chunks of leading hours and bonus points, affecting the battle at the top! Possibly an advantage for Duplode? Is it all an advanced team strategy?

    Two of these racers have also been recently promoted out of the Amateur group, leaving space to the next generation. @Ryoma has lined up consistently strong results — not only for an amateur — but he's not alone: @Mortimer~McMire and @Gordon~Freeman might be new to the competition, but hey they drive fast! Ryoma will definitely land above Spoonboy's frozen score, but he might need to keep Mortimer in check to lift the Amateur trophy! Remember folks: worst three results don't count in the final score 😮

    The double duel between Duplode and Alan, and between Spoonboy and Frieshansen reflects on the team standings, where Cork's Crew and Doubleplusspeed advance in lock step. These final races will be decisive, I've better improve my lap!

    Plenty of exciting things happening in other competitions and the Forum, but I'll close here for today. Maybe the next update will come sooner that way :)

    Well then, have you submitted your lap for ZCT277? Not yet? Now's the time!

  • Spoonboy
    @alanrotoi great article! These insights into the early days make me wonder how different the lap times would be, with the years of knowledge and expertise those in the community now have...? And thanks for the update @dreadnaut! All this reminds me how lucky I feel to be part of this community. And humbled to be in a team with such an amazing history, with teammates and competitors who have helped write that history and continue to now. Viva Stunts! Cheesy

Aug 9

  • Alan Rotoi
    Thanks @Spoonboy! You can do it and check how the performance changed during the ages. It's a good exercise to download a track and give a change without checking ANY replay (because everybody can copycat a replay sooner or later, but the real challenge is to find the tricks and shortcuts without any help).
  • Mark Nailwood
    Ok, I think I'll also take the Lancia. Smiley
    Lancia 1:03.65 A

Aug 10

  • Ryoma
    I miss something with the Delta...grrr..
    Lambo 1:01.88
  • dreadnaut
    Happy birthday @JTK! We know you are lurking Grin

Aug 13

  • dreadnaut
    Objective for this race: a sub-minute lap. So close! 🤩

Aug 14

  • Ryoma
    @dreadnaut I think that the winner will make 52 seconds
  • dreadnaut
    Wow, that would be 6s faster with the Lancia, not sure if there is enough improvement margin. Of course another car might get there in a different way 🤔 — Are you hiding something cool @Ryoma?

Aug 15

  • Ryoma
    @dreadnaut unfortunaly no... My limit on this game is my knowledge on physics...I can't imagine some of your tricks because of this....but the 3 gods seems to have something under their pedal.

Aug 16

  • CTG
    Chili, chili, chili beans in pina! Shitty-shitty, shitty Alpenmilch! The first WSM was 20 years ago, in August 2004... damn... we are getting VERY OLD.
  • Alan Rotoi
    I remember. I should have gone there Smiley

Aug 17

  • CTG
    Akoss Poo, Bonzai Joe, CTG, Dinmor, JTK, KHR, Usrin, Zak McKracken. The Ultimate WSM. Cheesy

    Same for me Smiley
    Jaguar 0:58.01
  • dreadnaut
    Ooooh, an unexpected Jaguar! 🤔 goes and investigates
  • Ryoma
    @Duplode, we hesitate between Countach or Delta...why bring you the Jaguar ?
  • Duplode
    @Ryoma Green goes well with yellow and blue Cheesy

    @Leo Collapse? Are you alright now, what happened? 🚑
  • Shoegazing Leo
    Collapse of my computer: first screen, then motherboard, processor and power supply. HD couldn't boot, but I borrowed a HD to run OS.
  • dreadnaut
    Ah, sorry to hear that. Still better than a serious health issue!

Aug 23

  • Spoonboy
    Just two more days to submit your lap for R4K! @Zapper will you show us what your Mazda can really do? Who else will join??
  • Duplode
    @Spoonboy I will! Cheesy I should finally be able to have a R4K session later today.

Aug 24

  • Duplode

    I scowl in the general direction of the final trick.
  • dreadnaut
    Quiet replays revealed!
  • dreadnaut
    To answer @Ryoma's question in advance: no, we had yet to discover the Indy route when we were chatting about alternative cars last week!
  • Duplode
    Oh, the wonders of the Porsche March Indy! Cheesy Congratulations to Doubleplusspeed: @AlanRotoi, @dreadnaut, @ErikBarros (first podium!!) and @Frieshansen. Also congrats to the Am League podium: @Ryoma, @MortimerMcMire (best Am result to date!) and @GordonFreeman.
  • Duplode
    As for me, I'm pleased about at least having reached @Ryoma's 52 seconds target!
  • Mortimer McMire
    Congratulations to @AlanRotoi, @Dreadnaut and @ErikBarros! And of course also to @Ryoma and @GordonFreeman for completing the amateur league podium!

  • Erik Barros
    Congratulations to Doubleplusspeed, it was great teamwork. Congratulations to @Ryoma, @MortimerMcMire and @GordonFreeman. @Duplode, your lap with the Lancia is impressive, I had imagined seeing really cool solutions in the last loop when I inserted it there
  • Mortimer McMire
    First blind try Sad
    Stratos 1:44.08
  • Argammon
    Congratulations @Doubleplusspeed! What a nice surprise indeed. Smiley I was wondering why nobody gave the Lambo a serious attempt but your choice was even better. 👍
  • Spoonboy
    I was very happy with our final loop jumps as a solution to this final section. A very nice track with just the right amount of cool elements.
  • Duplode
    Thanks @ErikBarros, that final section was one of my favourites this season! @Argammon The Lancia and Lambo were pretty close indeed -- weren't it for the Indy, I do think it could have gone either way!

  • dreadnaut
    I like a nice alternating scoreboard

Aug 28

Aug 29

    @Cas so we can finish 30 feet over the finish line ? Lol

    Glad you are enjoying the track, @HunterBoy344 and @Ryoma!
