A Slovak guy took my Stunts Career concept and he is creating a BATRacer-like website with some RPG additions. Game is still on beta-test and no championships are available : only single test races.

I enlisted 3 days ago and already did the French translation of the website.

If you feel like testing it, it's just there : MyRacingCareer 

Honestly, I never suffered insultive comments or PMs from anyone, even if I found many times that the haughty attitude of Argammon is quite insultive, but it's just my own opinion about him.

Nice mini-meeting.

I can see the track design but text on the paper can't be read.

One more thing: this idea more or less relates to what Krys had in mind with Stunts Career. He could not do it alone - but I believe we can do this together.

Indeed, that's one of the (too many) things I started and never finished...

Insane tracks

This, I can do (remember USC's Tata track ? )

ISM (or whatever name it will be) looks good to close the season though I must admit I really wanted Mark o Krys to host a NoRH comp. Guess all of my hopes rely on Krys now.

Yes, I still have a FTT season to conclude... Someday...

Nice new look for the forum. Too bad that SMF forums are now as spammed as phpbb ones...
Anyway, such an evolution since the old green one with mandatory ads you had at the very beginning (which got replaced by a phpbb one and then the SMF one). 

I have also addedd language support for the following:
-German Informal
- Portuguese Brazilian
- Spanish (Latin)
- Danish
- Italian
- Hungarian

No French ?

MeganiuM is alive, I saw his picture on a card in a box :

Well, well, well...

First, thanks Mark for the PM, it made me come here sooner that I would have probably done by myself according to the spare free time I have nowadays.

Second, I don't see anything surprising here. Regular USC-only pipsqueaks were CTG ghosts. Nothing new for me here. That's CTG. Since the "scandal" of the track contest back in... 2003 ? (not sure) and the famous (for old-timers like me) Unskilled Stunts false draft (all "drafters" were CTG's ghosts) and so on, for sure old pipsqueaks should not be much surprised.

Third, "Silver Spirit" had its goal in its name : being 2nd, get the silver medal. Goal of this team was just to make CTG's result seem better with a "real" opposition. CTG probably found the level of his competition too low without some serious replays so he managed to create an opposition to both valorize himself and make the other strong players come racing USC.

Now, CTG made his coming out, fine, what else ?

Will it bring a real new generation of active chatters/players ? Nope. It will just make the forum less active.

Was he the only one playing with ghosts ? Not so sure...

Of course, there is a difference between forum-only ghosts like Stunts Oracle (Alan "Portador de Luz" Rotoi) or Stunts Oracle Priests (me) and racing ghosts, but goal of these were the same : fill the void, void created by a lack of pipsqueaks and chatters.

Is CTG crazy ? Maybe. Probably suffering mutli-personnality.
Is Peter Varga crazy ? I don't know but I don't think so.

Like Alain "il professore" Péré, CTG has always been playing a role as a pipsqueak.
Alain played the mocking bird, always finding funny to make the others go crazy against him.

Now the mask is off for CTG. He will probably come back in a few months/years with a new nick and a new attitude. I hope so, because Stunts need active pipsqueaks, like CTG was. Like I used to be before I got fed up with it and got too busy to even race with listfiller replays.

I can understand the frustration of Mark and some others, of course. I don't want to find any excuse to CTG.
Maybe Akoss, Zak and I are guilty in some way too, as we never forced CTG to reveal all his ghosts (I knew about some of them but not for all of them) and stop wasting his time like that...

What I regret is that I have a backup of the 2004 season, maybe the odd page and the basic design of the page, but nothing more.

You can have a partial back-up there :

I remember well my crazy Mordor replay with my flying indycar. And the zip of replays can still be downloaded.

Browse the archive dates and maybe you'll be able to find the different zip files of replays for all the tracks.

You're alive  how are you?

I'm fine, thanks. Life is still busy as hell, but I think that now I can really have some spare time to be back playing Stunts.

And now for some really hard ones:

1 music
2 love
3 and

Good luck, and don't cheat by finding one song for the 3 of them.

Mmmm, one French song comes to my mind : "Qui de nous deux" by -M-. A song about a guy talking about his relation with his guitar, between love and music.
Apart from that, "Skater boy" by Avril Lavigne could suit the "love and music" theme.

Such an anniversary seems the perfect timing for me to finally come back racing.

Unlike last time (long time ago ), I hope this time I'll have time to really be back racing regularly...

I told about it twice in the Stunts sequels topic, pages 2 and 4.
Game had no big success and so the part 2 has never been developped...

[at least 100 races]

Between drivers who raced at least 100 races

Can you precise the best of all drivers that raced more than 300 races ?
OK, I'm the only one in this category but yet, at least I'm 1st somewhere.

When I published the tables, I wanted to add: "And I'm quite sure that, knowing Krys' humor, he'll say: And I'm 1st between drivers over 300 races!". Then, also to avoid any misunderstandings related to the kidding, I decided to let you the "space" to say it directly...  

You know me too much.

As I said before, I took every stats from USC "Stats corner" page. But if you are able to rescue any other information to complete the tables, it will be great!  

I have some data on an Excel sheet with winners, but no data of every pipsqueak that raced each race...
Anyway, I may still find some datas : internet wayback machine is my friend.

edit : Rough Ride website is still online, all data can be found for this one at least : http://free.prohosting.com/~stunts/contest/index.htm

Dead for some time now... :-(

Also, some contests and results are missing or wrong :
- Rough Ride contest missing : 6 wins for Ivanoeg, 4 wins for JTK, 1 race not officially ended, led by Ben Snel
- FSC : I took part in 24 events. Even if 5 of them had no official winner (competition aborted), there's still 19 races, and not 17. And I won one race (Hendaye 2004 reverse to be precise).
- HOTU Stunts is missing : 13 races overall. Considering only the time results (not counting the "Insane" competition) : 8 wins for me, 3 wins for Gutix, 1 win for ShadowCrust and 1 win for Noriek.
- Charles', Bart's, CMG's or Mark Nailwood's competitions are missing. F Stunts, Stunts Brasil and Abandonia competitions are missing too.
- 4DSL results are strange. There was 2 scoreboards : one for South Americans and 1 for other part of the world. Did you combined both results to select the winner ? Also, there has been 13 races and I missed only the 1st one of the 1st season due to holidays (race lasted 2 weeks for 1st race instead of 4 weeks) so I should have 12 participations, not 8.
- maybe there are other things but no time to check it all at the moment...
