Three questions to Mark about his creation and its Wiki article:

1. It is a fact that the official data about Speedgate understimates its acceleration (0-60) by a factor of about 50%.. :) I've added the acceleration I measured to the infobox, but haven't overwritten your text yet - is it fine to do it, or you intend to surprise people when they get to test the car? ;)

2. What kind of stunt is needed to get Speedgate to 245mph? I've raced a pretty fast track with lots of jumps and only reached, with quite a bit of effort, 227mph...

3. If you could choose a default colour for Speedgate other than P962's blue from the available ones, which would you pick? :)

Nice job, CTG; this track has fluency and rhythm, and never feels like lasting for almost three minutes...  ;)

And, of course, welcome Ayrton! :)

After wrestling a bit with wiki markup (available documentation at Wikipedia and MediaWiki is quite confusing...), I managed to write a half-decent template. Look at Recent Changes and see how you like it  ;)

PS: changing the subjet, a question to all the pipsqueaks that have raced in Mexicana: how do you do to pass the second corkscrew left/right (or right/left, I don't remember)? In case you don't know wich one I am refering to, I,m talking about the "broken" one.

Well, I tried two or three times to loop it properly (rofl!), then gave up and just strolled ahead, taking a small jump in the end towards the banking if I remember correctly...

So I broke Mark's unbeaten run of three (actually should be five...) races! Next step: winning a WSC track I haven't designed  ;D

Well, I created a couple new articles and/or stubs, take a look at http://stunts.mine.nu/wiki/index.php/Special:Contributions/Duplode and make your corrections...
Thinking now about car descriptions/comments, it is better to have just one page (or eventually two to include cheat cars) or have one article for ach relevant car?

The pleasure is mine... ;) BTW, I'm moving Zak and CTG profiles to the Community category, if anybody opposes feel free to switch them back.

I installed Wiki software on the server, it's really simple to use it!

Check it here:
http://stunts.mine.nu/wiki

register and add/edit posts (some help on editing also available on site)

I already added BonzaiJoe's latest posts.

we can still list the ideas for new wiki articles here, maybe some of us don't want to edit the wiki.


Great! That's the best way to share our knowledge, and a perfect complement to the Driving School!

Replay construction is artistic. Actually, that's, for me, a crucial driving force to race with RH - plan, perform watch and enjoy...

So we can give Zak our feedback...
As for me, everything looks nice, clear and simple. My only suggestion for now, which is completely unrelated to the new stuff anyway, is to make some secondary colours on pipsqueaks' profiles (like on borders or textbox foreground/backgrounds) customizable, so that we could, for instance, apply team colours on them. Also, will data on Car Bonuses for older tracks be stored on "Car Bonuses" pages, or in the old scoreboards themselves?

I second Krys: nice timing Mark... It's a pleasant surprise for me to be that close to leading time in Track A already... and @Chulk: we're too damn close!! ;)
