Hi, guys. I've already uploaded the track for next month. It'll automatically become active when July starts (UTC), but you can already take a look at the track. We'll be featuring the Baronetti Hexa this time  It's the first time we have it in an official R4K race! Hope to see you guys there!

I'll see how weeks evolve next month and I may also host one

The gaps at 2000 and 1500 call my attention. They're very noticeable!

Downloaded!

It was a nice track. I felt I was able to actually learn some skills with it

Ah!  I understand that feeling. This has happened to me with some games I've recovered later, but were not the same. I do still keep my original version of Stunts, which is a 1.0 with a stunt.com crack and an alternative Default replay that's played on the Default track and ends with the pipsqueak (in a blue PMIN) shoots up into the sky at the loop. Unfortunately, I have never come across the version you mention. Hopefully one of the guys here has.

No prob!  Actually, it'd be very good if they'd approach us more, like by changing the official distribution 

I've long been thinking of rewriting CarWorks and one thing I should do then is make sure it can be compiled for DOS. I've done that for Bliss, but was lazy with CarWorks. It also has a number of bugs I never fixed. Hopefully sometime I can work on that. It'd help a lot with matters like these.

Wonderful to finally see the complete map!  Makes me want to have started a similar project at the beginning of my Stunts... uh... career?  Ha, ha. Very good!

(by the way, the words "career" and "race" are both translated as "carrera" in Spanish)

It'd indeed be good to include them in R4K. We have to sort things there so that we can add these cars in a way that it's clear in the platform which variety is being used, but hopefully we can add some of them this year

The thing is they use a different distribution of Stunts, so I guess for them to use it for their tournament, the changes would have to be reapplied to the Mindscape version

I don't tend to contribute a lot to teams because I'm a lower scoreboard pipsqueak. However, I do feel that teams need some certainty, so yes, points should remain what they were, like... in the team they were produced and with the value they had. So... if my replay doesn't result in any point, but in the next race, a team mate leaves or is replaced by another and that would've made my replay worth points had the new configuration been like that before, then I should still not score for races I've already played. As long as that is true, it makes sense to me that nobody should be forced to stay in or out of a team.

On the other hand, there are reasons why one might want to join or leave a team mid-season and not all of them are equally strong, so maybe the rules should say something on how to justify this because, for example, a team could be counting on the future points it'll make thanks to a certain member and more importantly, another team may be counting on its rival team not having a certain member to score good points. This may seem cruel, but I think it at least deserves some thought.

Anyway, I am OK with any changes. It really doesn't bother me at all. Even on ZakStunts, I race for kicks   I just want to drop my thoughts here in case they could be useful or may lead you to other, more elaborate thoughts than mine!
