I don't know whether he wants to be in another team or not. It was just an insult, because Alan Rotoi is slow.

It's a great name - especially because you can have a team soundtrack of Slowdive music.

As far as I know, they had to retire from Stunts because of serious health troubles caused by their excessive pálinka and kerosene consumption.

Pálinka is almost an absynth in therms of alcohol. The brazilian cachaça (made of sugar kane) is about 38/48°GL.
There are about 2,000 synonims for cachaça. There are some of them:

Not really. Pálinka has "only" 40-60% alcohol content (yeah, some special brands might be even 70%, but that's rare). However, 40% is a fuckin' weak one. :D

It might be cheaper to buy and drink the active ingredient at once: ethanol.

No way. Pálinka has a fruity taste (if it's a good one). On the other hand, pure alcohol is quite expensive here (high tax). But 20-30 years ago it was really worth to buy in pharmacies...

Slowdrive is now on the scoreboards (http://zak.stunts.hu/index.php?page=team&season=2015)! And what a start ;)

Leo, I had to squeeze your logo a bit too much sorry. If you want to replace it, just post the new one here: there is space for about 75x50 pixels.

Having started "recently" myself, I found there were tons of trick I didn't know about, some of them really difficult :)  I put down a non-complete list (http://forum.stunts.hu/index.php?topic=3013.msg61089#msg61089) once.

On the other end, replays in the first half of the month are public! You can find them at the top of the scoreboard (http://zak.stunts.hu/tracks/ZCT162), where it says All results (http://zak.stunts.hu/tracks/ZCT162/all).
