Stunts Drivers Races / Re: RH - R5/2007 - "TETRIS"
June 24, 2007, 05:27:20 PM
Cool race in  a cool track and neat result for me... congratulations to the podiumers and this time in special to Krys, with his eleventh hour salvage of 3rd place  ;).

This is absolutely wonderful!!! 8)  ;D 8) I indeed hesitate - quite literally - on the final corners, for I already wasted a couple potential 1:16:XX there and it was way too late to risk another - such are the choices we're subject in NoRH... Anyway, I'm particularly proud of sector 3 - for me, it was the toughest stretch of the lap. Congratulations to Mark, and to Krys and Chluk too, for for another thrilling race!

Reply to website news: CTG, I don't think there should be Online Help here (and for the rest of USL) beyond those tips. The gaps are large mainly because most people either hate or are not used to the car, and the ones who have less trouble with it are getting great times faster. Car differences are, after all, part of what makes each of those matches so peculiar (as most drivers are expected to have deep trouble for at least one race)... in other words, give us more three days  ;)

In the end, Gr?mio is a pretty mediocre team (*); even after the 2nd leg of semifinals one could tell they would win nothing... not that it makes Boca's victory smaller anyway.

(*) Oh wait, gr?mio actually beat my team on the Round of 16...er...time to switch topics? *blushes*

You mean weirdest, don't you ? ;) Good luck then, because even with DOSBox racing under Vista (which is not perfect) I already easily overtook CTG's 1'08 time. 8) And I'll probably improve again in the week-end with pure DOS racing on my daughter's computer (am I kidding or not ? ;D ).


8), indeed... ;)

And back to the Countach, I feel "anti-power gear car" is the perfect designation...

Plzen: Well, I managed to lose by only a moderate gap, so I'm satisfied... Grats to Mark, and to all other winners!

Nightmare car...

Don't think I ever had a serious Countach race since I was a lil'kid. Surely the weridest (original) car in game...

Overall it seems quite close to my own prediction : I'll be in the top 3... Starting from the bottom of the scoreboard ! :D

Ditto for me - this is a league... someone must act in the relegation battles  ;D.

* CTG is out of the race. :(

Sad... :( But I agree this track must be undriveable with an unreliable keyboard.

Probably I will only update my time much later, when I get to redrive the whole lap. Whatever happens, I'm already pleased with my lap, at least on "artistical" terms. Powergear driving sometimes does not feel much like racing; instead it seems one got thrown into a very hard Tony Hawk's Pro Skater level. Which is great anyway  ;D.

Aaargh...!! :o
Anyway, this will be a wonderful race! :) I hope only to find time for clawing back some space before CP3...

Wildest race since Brazil '03... terrible race from my compatriots (Massa's DQ and Rubens again screwed by pitting decisions), and of course Kubica's shunt scared the hell off my Polish descent (thankfully he is rather fine, just a broken leg it seems). But it all ended in joy, for Hamilton's maiden victory  ;D, plus Alonso's humiliation...

0.70 works almost without problems (in my current machine). Anyway, I won't quite enjoy racing in pure DOS (multitasking maniac  ;)), so some setting battles lie ahead... thanks!

Krys, you recently had a forced upgrade to a dual core... as I'm going towards the same route within a month, is there anything in terms of Stunt-ing I should be wary of? (I'm moving to a Core 2 Duo, but will keep good ol' WinXP)

Yikes, I get my baptism of fire!  ;D For starters, I'm already looking forward for the debut vs. Mark - at least the car is one I have hopes of not lagging too much behind....
