ZCT 149 - Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo

[Chulk]

If I wanted to cheat, I would never ask about its "legal status".

That's not necessarily true, and you, as an attorney, should realize why.
To have this as a proof you were not cheating is not valid, as it proofs nothing. It just generates a false feeling of trust based on a false confession.

Anyway, Car modifications are strictly forbidden by Zak's rules, so I would consider the speedometer cheating.
As per track mirroring, I think of it being "at least" immoral, for as it is not forbidden by rules it cannot be labelled as "illegal".
Key remapping is ok

Attorney... bah. My brain is still working as a researcher / chemical engineer. About your opinion: what should I do now? How do you know that I haven't used this aid since I have CarBlaster or Stressed? Since I'm far the most unfair person in the community (or at least from the revealed liars... khm...), you won't believe what I say. And even if I use this patch, nobody will be able to detect it, since the modification had no effect on the car's performance. So... whatever. I consider it as a visual aid, just like a mirror or little crosses drawn on the border of track field squares.

Not track mirroring, but SCREEN MIRRORING, combined with keyboard remapping.

We don't. It's a trust based system so it's a moral call for you to make.

True, I guess a video is the only believable proof but we cannot demand it so, again, it's a moral issue.

That's what I meant, sorry.

It reminds me a bit on Mingva's "discovery" about advanced RH, although this one has a lot smaller impact. Since we can't avoid the usage, it should be legalized.

Time to get proper doping on the track. It can't be avoided!

It's time to find a cure for cancer too.

You mean Mr. Poo's penis cancer?

Silent night...

As a "happy end", I could mirror a replay completed on a mirrored track - in hexeditor. The hardest part was to set the car to the middle of the road after 2.5-3.0 seconds. After that... well... 30 minutes driving (all the lefts completed over 170 mph), 10 minutes of editing. I won't send that replay, although it's under 1:05.
