Thank you to everyone in the community, I learned a lot and continue to learn a lot from you.

You're welcome, and thank you for putting these recaps together!

You're welcome @Tijn and welcome to the forum!  It was a pleasure to participate in the podcast and I really appreciate the opportunity.

It's all good.  Don't worry about it!

Here is the scoreboard with the fastest lap times:

1.	Duplode	1:00.15

Congratulations to @Duplode for winning the race!  @Alan Rotoi and I followed close behind in second and third place, respectively.  I have attached a map showing everyone's position at the 8 minute mark.  Thanks to everyone for participating and I look forward to racing with you all again soon!

My replay attached.

At this point, both the Ford Sierra RS Cosworth and the Lancia Stratos.

Attached is the track for tomorrow's race.  I've also identified precisely where the finish line is.  I'll be in the chat an hour before the race to prepare and answer any last-minute questions.

Alright, it turns out that @Overdrijf is available on Saturday, so the race will be held at the original time.  To confirm, that's Saturday the 5th of August 2023 at 12:00 UTC.  As before, everyone who has already confirmed their attendance has been notified and is available at the original time.

It's impossible to make even close recreations of the Race Drivin' tracks in Stunts because of the issues you described, but also because while the stunt elements are similar in execution, they are visually quite different.

You may be interested to know that the version of Default that appears in Skid Marks (the working title of Stunts before it was released) is even more reminiscent of Hard Drivin' than the final version.  Apart from that, I made a track called Hard Drivin' a few years ago that was inspired by the Atari game, but certainly wasn't a recreation.

To accommodate @Overdrijf, the race has been moved to Sunday the 6th of August 2023 at 12:00 UTC.  Everyone who has already confirmed their attendance has been notified and is available at the new time.

Welcome @CYBERYOGI -CO-Windler!  I'm a big fan of Hard Drivin' and Race Drivin', but while they were clearly an inspiration during the development of Stunts, it doesn't share any technical attributes that I'm aware of.  You should also check out Nostalgia Nerd's video on inappropriate racing ports, which features Hard Drivin'.

This is amazing!  Thank you!  I'm looking forward to future updates.

The next live race is called Losing Grip.  Please see the dedicated forum topic for further information.

Last time we had Full Grip.  This time we're Losing Grip.  The race is scheduled for Saturday the 5th of August 2023 at 12:00 UTC.  Below are the corresponding times for other time zones:

• Saturday 09:00 Buenos Aires
• Saturday 09:00 São Paulo
• Saturday 14:00 Amsterdam
• Saturday 14:00 Budapest
• Saturday 14:00 Rome
• Saturday 22:00 Brisbane

The track will be revealed closer to the race day, but you can vote for your favourite car now.  Of course, as usual, I will be racing in red.  If you would like to participate, please confirm your attendance in this topic.  If you would like to participate but are unavailable at the scheduled time, please let me know so I can try to organise an alternate time.
