I'm making some sweeping changes to some back-end code 👀 Let me know if anything looks odd.

First aid (via Ruins)

I find these investigation threads quite interesting: slow-then-sudden progress, dead-ends and red herrings!

Thank you folks!

I can imagine a slight advantage when checking if the car is inside or outside a tile, but it feels very small.

Wow, out of nowhere, the cars keep coming 🤯  Thank you, Alan!

Teams as described above should be on the website now!

One last addition: I return to the folds of DoublePlusSpeed 💪

The Silverado won't be contained!

For the a recent variation of the Siluro, adopted by ZakStunts, see this thread.

If you want to play on your original 48K, the "side-chapter" Rubinho Cucaracha supports it . But I'm a spoiled guy and use an emulator.

My 48K is back in Italy, so I'll have to make do with an emulator as well!

I mean, for 2026! 😅

Wow, it's really impressive to squeeze something like that out of the ZX Spectrum, even the 128K version. I'll definitely check book and game out, thank you!

New year, new thread, new improvements! (See also: 2025)

Let's open with PTB support:

- there's finally a place for it the database
- Podium Time Bonus points appear on track and season scoreboards ✅

To get PTB in I had to tidy up the way we handle all bonus points, which cleaned up a few things, and now Leading Time, Time Difference, and Endurance bonuses appear in the right seasons through history. For example, 2024 includes LTB and TDB.

After reviewing recent threads, here's my proposal for 2026:

- Ferrari Testarossa
- Melange XGT-88
- Williams Renault FW12C
- Chevrolet Silverado Monster Truck
- DAF Siluro Turbo Spec

Seeing no further comments, my plan is to confirm the 2025 ruleset, including PTB as-is. Leading hours will start from zero with the first race of the season.

Thank you! Looking at the list above, I am indeed in good company.
