Poll
Question:
Try the track and vote: shall we replace it with another one? PLEASE EXPLAIN YOUR CHOICE!
Option 1: Yes, the current track is too long/bad.
votes: 3
Option 2: No, keep this
votes: 0
Another Akoss Poo track, car will be Corvette. Coming soon!
Test lap was almost 3 minutes: not that kind of track which brings back motivation of lost pipsqueaks... See the poll: do you want a new track instead of this? I give you the choice to change. Please explain your choice - without that your vote is invalid. Akoss will say no, I say yes. That's 1-1 so far.
I've driven a relatively serious initial lap on this track. With quite some effort, I did... 2:33.00. There are some interesting difficult passages, but the whole thing is just too bloody long... I'd usually not ask for a callback, but considering the championship situation as a whole I will vote "Yes". Or the track could be modified (by Akoss if possible) to fit in a reasonable length. That would be a good diplomatic solution if you two can find an agreement. Suggestions include creating a bypass through the hills and rejoining at speed at the long tunnel, thus skipping the whole southeastern section, and getting rid of the "Gran Turismo license test" set of corners near the end.
Voted yes. I'm already spending too much time on my laps, longer tracks aren't helping. :)
Sounds like the wind of change... ;D
Just got an SMS from Akoss Poo, probably he can't change the track now. I decided to re-order the cars, Akoss will do the next track for Corvette (maybe the modified version of this), while this time you can race on a different track from me. Track building in progress... ;)
Okay... dear pipsqueaks! The new track is ready, let's see the details!
Track name: Munkács
Designer: CTG
Car: Acura NSX or Audi Quattro, your own choice - it seems to be quite balanced for the two cars... ;)
Difficulty: 3/5
Predicted winning time: 1:17.00
Deadline: 8th March 2009, midnight

Interesting... of course we could predict there would be a dual-car race (since that vote at the beginning of the season resulted in more cars than tracks), but that you'd pick two of your favourite cars for it is a bit surprising.

Because they have quite similar results on most of the tracks and because I think these two cars will be used a lot in ZakStunts... ;)
Audi seems to be a bit stronger for first try but there's more hidden spirit in Acura... dunno which one will be better. It also depends on the pipsqueak, which car he prefers. :)
As nobody said it yet: fun track, whatever the car you pick ;)

I'm planning a video comparison of the best Acura and Audi replay... :)
Alert for Chulk, dstien, Krys, newbies & oldies: only 5 days left!!!
Three pipsqueaks with 1:23.00... incredible! ;D
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY WAKE UP!!!
Chulk, dstien and Krys are still missing from the basic USC pipsqueaks pack, also missing the newbies... 22 hours left, please do your best!
There are still only 5 pipsqueaks... :-\ >:(
Duplode 1:20.45 (Audi), probably the winning time.
But where are Krys and Chulk? :-\
Hunting for new pipsqueaks again with the old method: chat sites. No success so far.
Edit: Krys is not a question from now, quite a good time from him. No info about Chulk.
And Chulk has not appeared at FTT #3 either...

Because Rotoi is out of race nowadays... ;D Kidding. It's too bad. :-\
Results, replays and RH stats are updated, analysis later... Congratulations Duplode, great Acura lap from BJ, "surprising" good position from Krys Toff, missing Chulk.
I hope to see a better race next time.
Analysis is quite interesting when comparing Duplode's and my replay: it seems there's really a significant difference between my left and right turn skills... :o
Sorry! It's just that I forgot completely about deadlines! I had a really busy month with study and job interviews and completely lost track of time. I had a very weak 1:29 with Audi at USC and about 1:35 for FTT, so you didn't miss my best performances, anyway...

So you missed a 4th place... But now it's really your round with Corvette!
Suddenly I feel so glad about having re-driven the final 15s late in Saturday :)
