One observation. If the camera points forward, the horizon is supposed to be in the middle of the screen. Pictures here:

Is there any car in Stunts with the proper settings?

Is there any post of yours with the proper message?

I was thinking that i could make one or more snow tracks as a Christmas special. And the only cars allowed would be: Citroen ZX Rallye, Fiat 131 Abarth Rally, Lancia Stratos, Subaru Impreza, Audi Quattro, Lancia Delta, Lancia Delta HPE HF, Lancia Delta 2 TD, Lancia Delta Evo 2, Lancia Delta Evo 3, Lancia Delta S4 and Lancia 037.

I had this idea, because i thought it would be fun. i wish there would be more cars as Suzuki Escudo, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Celica, Peugeot 205, Ford RS200, Citroen BX 4tc Evolution and older generations of Mitsubishi Lancer.

Ooh what happened with Ford Sierra RS Cosworth?

@alanrotoi This could be a great venue for a Death Race, Twisted Metal like story. Imagine Bernie Rubber being the villain who plays dumb, not to reveal he secretly is the evil mastermind responsible for the demise of the world and the situation where the rest of the drivers are in    !

I love this kind of stories Do you like writing?

As advertised, those scoreboard pages are now filled again, and several of the stats already pull 2001-2003 data 

Thank you! Those scoreboards shows a lot of learning and fun!

Actually, Abandoned mine opened a new column of tracks in the big map (stunts world?). It's placed east from Melee track.

Since the community doesn't have an active social media there is no need of open posts or commentaries of pictures from there.
I would improve the chatroom to make it more friendly and accessible. There are people I can't chat because we don't have a common and comfortable place for everybody.

is it too disruptive to have the chatroom in stunts.hu? I mean not only the access but the chatroom itself.

@Matei I think @KyLiE said 6.5 hours in the 28 days of competition so it's less than 1% of the month. Don't make it personal. The worst arrogancy is when a pipsqueak says i.e. "I did it in half an hour" when you clearly know (after many years in the game and the community) that it was a work of many hours. Somehow some pipsqueaks (and not pipsqueaks too I can see now) feels better saying they invests almost no time racing.  That attitude deserves some insults but you only get from me a "poor guy".

I saw the same attitude or speech in other gamer communities where you build the expertise playing and playing. These kind of arrogant commentaries aren't welcome. Let him spend his time as he wishes.

This year Diablo, Camaro and Oxia had their winning race. We can find the last win for Lotus back in 2021 but hey! a win after all and four more wins in the previous years.

Today we have two virgin cars: Thunderbird, which had its only test in 2024 and have got a 2nd and a 3rd place in 12 races. The other car is Mercedes DTM which is bein its 4th championship and still not a single first place. The other two DTM cars of the pack had already their baptism of joy (BMW DTM once in 2021 and Audi DTM two, 2019 and 2020).

What's wrong with Mercedes? why we still don't make her debut? It's beatiful, smart, fast and well balanced with her sisters.

Ooh! Thank you! Very nice northeast - southwest sight! It looks pretty cool!

All past tracks were designed, meant and verified to avoid a PG surprise anyway.

It's not like that and I pointed it a couple of years ago. There weren't a track building logic. I pushed there and it might only lead to flooded tracks. It's something we can't learn from a day to another and sometimes we'll fail like in zct284.
Building a track for the ocation of certain set of cars and its bonuses is quiet hard and fun. There are aspects of the game that we didn't expert to the limit yet.

And the big gaps mostly comes from time invested on the game. Skills, game knowledge, luck and too much time.

No, it's about the track. If you already know PG cars are "unbeatable" then you better start test them here too.

Hehe right! I took a couple of bonus points because I prefer a tricky and jumper replay at the end. A replay like that could be done with imsa or rally car even with carrera we could see an enjoyable tricky lap but not with lm002. Two points maybe were too few to keep it out of the race. The main objective was to keep the lambo out of the battle.

[they are the most dedicated pipsqueaks]

@Alain, if you agree with me then you misunderstood my message 😅 My point is that the same people win PG and non-PG races. Removing PG from the equation doesn't change the result: they win because, at that moment in time, they are the most dedicated pipsqueaks.

You could argue for "a distortion" only if there were two different sets of drivers: those who win/podium all the PG races, and those who win/podium only the "rare" non-PG races.

Look at the past five years: can you find significant evidence of these two groups?

If someone consistently ranks in the middle of the scoreboard (✋), claiming "oh, I would have won this race if it weren't for powergear" would be disingenous.

A far less dedicated pipsqueak who ranks consistently in the middle of the scoreboard could redo the lap of this month winner with no dedication.

@KyLiE is the only pipsqueak that could help us with hints on what you want to know, he is the only one who saw how to do it, and drove for a ZCT289 podium.

I don't mean to be rude to any pilot in particular, that's not my point. I'm pointing the precise flaws in the meta. And this meta is so broken it can even favor the same entire team!

I'd love to know how much total time you invested @KyLiE once you had the informations needed to imitate the PG lap. Real question btw, it would help us grasp how much of a dedicated pipsqueak you are and if for real, the most invested pipsqueaks win the race at Zakstunts 25. Again, no value judgement, just investigation. "Non hypotheses fingo!" as would say Newton (the alchemist) I don't push my imagination, I don't work on baseless facts!

Thank you for your time reading me, I hope it was enjoyable and easy to read ❤️�🔥

I'm surprised that people keeps replying without noticing it's all about trolling. Starting with Victor that he fell so deep in the net so he might take this message as offensive or something like that. I hope he won't.

I hope you'll enjoy the track! The track was designed to avoid a PG surprise. Let's see if I succeeded. The objective is to have a fight between different ways of racing. For example, P962, Lancia and Carrera, you'll need sometimes different tricks and strategies to "solve" this track.
