Could someone kindly add this to the wiki? I would do it myself, if I can get authorized to create pages there. ;)

ROLLING STUNTS

Rolling Stunts is a Stunts team. As of 2019, its members are [[afullo]], [[dreadnaut]] and [[Seeker1982]].

== History ==

The team was founded in 2016 by afullo and dosbox92, two Italian rac3rs. The former one has been champion of the newbie league in 2014 while racing for [[Damage Inc.]], and has confirmed his affiliation for that team in 2015, while the latter one was new of the community.

The first two years were not so much glorious: in two seasons where 5 teams took part to the team competition, Rolling Stunts finished last in 2016 and fourth in 2017. But at the dawn of 2018 several facts happened: afullo decided to start playing more seriously, after a season in which he submitted only a not-so-elaborated lap per race; a new Italian rac3r, Imperas, had emerged from the crowd during the previous summer with several promising results, and was interested to join a team; the [[Yellow Fleas]] had basically had only dreadnaut as an active member for the majority of the previous year, so he started to have interest in changing affiliation to a team with active rac3rs.

So in 2018 the team competed with afullo, dosbox92, dreadnaut and Imperas as members, and the results were largely unexpected: Rolling Stunts won the team competition, ahead of [[Cork's Crew]] and [[Slowdrive]], by winning also six races. It had been noteworthy that <i>all</i> the four rac3rs brought points to the team, having everyone of them placed at least once as the first or the second rac3r of the squad, by being also in one of the first 12 positions overall, and that they were all from the same nation: Italy.

The year 2019 saw some changes. Apart from the previous observations, dosbox92 and Imperas played only one race out of 12 in the whole year, respectively the tenth and the first, so the team restarted without them; instead, German rac3r Seeker1982, champion of newbie league in 2018, joined it, by being also the first non-Italian to do so. The team won again the first two races of the season, but later started to lose to Cork's Crew, with the tandem [[Duplode]]-[[Overdrijf]] gaining the upper hand in the majority of the following tracks.
