I can also confirm:
Lise
How could BJ forget about her?

maybe by will...

Lise alone is a better chick than Cherry and Helen together! ;D

alanrotoi

I met Paleke, Gutix, Goyo, Manowar, Eddie Brother. The last two are family xD.
I saw "La Popis" registered in zakstunts but I don't remember she raced or registered here. So I guess it's another fake.

Typical experience: look at the scoreboard: Ayrton 56.90. Hmm, not that strong!.... in the Audi. Ah.
Bonzai Joe:
That's rather funny actually, because I dreamed that the Audi had a power gear...

Quote from: Stunts Wiki, 'Powergear bug' article; 11th May 2009
The PG classes for the original cars are (car masses are given in brackets):

Flexible PG: Indy (15), Acura (31).
Rigid PG: Ferrari (27), Corvette (35), Audi and Lancia (25, unreachable PG).
Bug-free: Carrera (32)
Regular: P962 (20), Jaguar (21), LM-002 (55)
Anti-PG: Countach (33)

BJ, the prophet

What are the bugs of the "Regular" cars?
But we can't be quite sure.

Mainly, if you get above the flat-track top speed they are not slowed down by the air drag afterwards. To see the difference, get Carrera to ~180mph in a long straight, hold the gas and watch the speedometer.

I guess Indy, Corvette and Ferrari has a similar power gear bug because you can turn every time in every situation without losing the effect. You can't do it with Acura for example.

All of the PG cars have this bug - they can stay above the "official" top speed indefinitely in a straight road. Indeed, we actually expect Stunts cars to have this bug (from the usual cars, both original and custom, only Carrera is not affected).

(We still haven't figured out why Acura can't do PG turns, though  :))

If there is an LM002, one must assume that there is also an LM001. Maybe it's much faster than the 002, but I agree with satanziege that it will not win this time. The primary reason for this is that it is not within the choice of cars.

Quote from: Wikipedia
Lamborghini LM001

The Lamborghini LM001 was a prototype offroad vehicle designed and built by Lamborghini. It was first revealed at the 1981 Geneva Auto Show with the new Jalpa.

Despite the failure of the Cheetah project, the idea of a Lamborghini off-road vehicle was still very much alive, and with new capital from investors, the Cheetah concept was redesigned into the LM001. Unlike the Cheetah's Chrysler engine, the LM001 prototype had a 180 hp 5.9L (360 ci) AMC-built V8, with the intention of offering the V12 from the Countach for production models.

The LM001 was found to have unfavorable handling characteristics when accelerating. This problem was traced to the placement of the engine in the rear. As a result, the LM001 was discontinued after one prototype was made.

The Lamborghini LM002 was the follow-up vehicle to the LM001.
