• 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

  This lap is for tourists.

• 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.

  PSG win +2 20 stunts seconds @1.00
• 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.

  Welcome @stanceboyCZ!

  @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?
• Alan Rotoi
  Oh yes, I'll make the post today. Sometimes I don't have time but Sunday is a free day 😄

  And score points @Spoonboy until a better lap comes
• Duplode
  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!
