When was the last time someone smashed a roadsign in a competition replay?

I miss doing that. We enjoyed that a lot when we were kids and playing at school.
But we can't be quite sure.

I guess it has to be a PG track or else the time lost would mean it wouldn't be in the final replay. Either that or in a NoRH race...
Yes, it is me. No, I'm not back at racing (for now...)

Don't remember exactly, but I did it not so long ago in a FTT replay while doing a shortcut, but I think it was not my best time so it's not on my FTT videos. Apart from that, we had a ZakStunts track with special rule that asked to destroy all roadsigns back in 2003 (if I remember it well).

Competitions and racing for fun are so far from eachother. :-\ Maybe we need a Carmageddon style competition - destroying many roadsigns, "crashing" scenery cars and making some really mad stunts on the track...

There would be a technical scoreboard (for countable things) and an artistic too (subjective, based on stunts quality)

Looks like a regular Stunts Olympics. I liked a lot the "longest air" event.

Not exactly. It can be combined with regular racing with special bonuses - like hitting a roadsign = -1 second, touching a certain track element/scenery car = -2 seconds, etc. Something like that was applied at Goiania (the first and surely last Knight Rider race in Stunts history). :D

My 2nd official race... Maybe even for that I remember it with big pleasure. With a bit more of experience I could center a sure unexpected podium...

Yes, you were the great surprise in the last few races of USC 2005/06. I really miss newbies with such a talent.

There was a very smashable sign on the section of banked road before the final corner in Z89. From the replays I've seen, Ayrton and Zak missed it by millimeters, while most others avoided it by a slightly different trajectory.
