Title: SHORTCUT FREE driving - to challenge your REAL racing-abilit

"SHORTCUT FREE driving - to challenge your REAL racing-abilities!"


What about starting a competition without using any shortcuts, to make a more realistic race and challenge each others real racing qualities?

Who would like to race on such a challenge?

And (as I dont have enough time for replay checking) who wants to check replays and lead this challenge?[/b]

Hi Freddy!

There have already been several such competitions, and one of them is still active (WSC). The most famous one was the ISA-competition, which later turned into IRC. This kind of competition, although it certainly was succesful, has generally proved far less popular than competitions with shortcuts.

But maybe there is a need for a new one all the same! In my opinion though, real Stunts is with shortcuts, like the game was made. Not with extra restrictions.

Welcome to the community! :-) See you on the scoreboards

As BJ said, one shortcut-free competition is still active : WSC (see Stunts portal http://stunts.mine.nu for link to it, or go directly to http://wsc.mundopc.net).
This competition is mainly for indy (except some of the special tracks of this year).
ISA/IRC competition also was for indy only.
There also used to be the IMSA Cup (see inactive coompetitions part of Stunts portal), which was almost shortcut-free and was focused on P962 and Jag XRJ9 cars, and Stunts Brasil also that used all cars of the game.

All these competition have never reached a participation level as high as ZakStunts or 4DSL.

I think 2 shortcut-free comp with indy at the same time would be too much.
Maybe one with all cars and not only indy could be successfull (even if Stunts Brasil never was, 4 pipsqueaks max per month). But do not expect more than 5-10 pipsqueaks. I would race it but I do not have time to manage it.

Shortcut free competitions only make sense without replay handling IMO.

But without replay handling it's almost impossible to stay on the road unless it's a very easy track...

That's how Stunts was made to be raced in the beggining. RH is not allowed inn the scoreboard for the game.

No, Stunts was made to be raced both on and off the road...

Okay, WSC is a Competition of a kind which I would like to prefer.

But its in some langage I cant understand at all... Yes there is a Translation-Link on it, but it quite doesn't work.
So now I'm stuck... I would like to tell it to the Webmaster, but I can't understand the language and I'm not able to find a 'Contact' Link.... LOL ](*,)

Could anybody contact him for me, so the english speaking dudes can take part of that challenge?  :D


...@CTG: sorry, I'm not Freddy Mercury  :lol:

Here I am, HERE I AM!!! :-D  I didn't realize that there was a broken link on the (automatic) translation. Let me see if I can fix it.

EDIT: Fixed! (Fixed? Google's translation it's kind of funny. Does anybody know a good automatic translator?)
Freddy: just in case, ask Krys or me about the rules :wink:
