The '''Ford Thunderbird 1957''' is a custom car by [[Alan Rotoi]]. It was launched as part of the "50's Car Pack" beside the [[Chevrolet Impala]] and the [[Plymouth Fury]].

== Performance ==

The grip value of the T-Bird is slightly lower than the one of original cars like the [[Acura NSX]] or the [[Ferrari GTO]], making for a more realistic the experience. Acceleration is in line with standards of that time.

== Popular culture ==

The Plymouth Fury from 1958 is the title subject of the novel "Christine" by Stephen King. It also appears in the movie adaptations of the novel.

Welcome to the '''Stunts Wiki'''!

The purpose of the Stunts Wiki is to gather all existing information about the most wonderful game, [[Stunts]], at one place. At this moment this Wiki is mostly useful for racers and those who know the game, but of course it'd be nice to extend it so that complete newcomers can also learn everything about this game.
Please feel free to add your content, or edit the previous ones. The usage of the editor is pretty straightfoward - took me 2 minutes to learn, so it shouldn't require more from you too. I give some help too: [[Help:Contents|Editing help]]

You can begin browsing by clicking on any of the following categories. Main categories are highlighted in bold; the links in regular font point to some of the key subcategories. And remember: Fasten Your Seatbelt!

Dreadnaut:

'''dreadnaut''' is an Italian racer who joined the community in October 2012, during ZCT135. dreadnaut gradually established himself as a regular contender for podiums, and also as an [[Indy]] specialist, winning ZCT194 (September 2017) and ZCT210 (January 2019) with that car.

dreadnaut also earned recognition through technical contributions, beginning with the online track viewer now deployed by the [[Southern Cross]] site. After spearheading the 2014 design update of the [[ZakStunts]] site, he progressively became more involved with the management aspects of the competition, becoming, around late 2017 and with the blessings of [[Zak McKracken]], the lead coordinator of the day-to-day activities in ZakStunts.

== Team affiliation ==

dreadnaut was a founding member of the [[Yellow Fleas]] team, under which it raced for two spells, 2013-2014 and 2016-2017. During the 2015 season he was a member of [[MeganiuM Aces High]]. From 2018 to 2020 he joined [[Rolling Stunts]], two years after its foundation by [[afullo]] and [[dosbox92]].

GAR

2019-02-13T22:33:44Z

Dreadnaut:

= GAR – Gentlemen Agreement Rules =

== Rules ==

=== 1. Replay handling is not allowed ===

A lap must be driven from start to end without any interruption or pause, and especially without the use of [[Replay Handling]].

=== 2. No shortcuts, follow the yellow line ===

At least one pixel of the car must always be on, over, or in contact with the road surface. This means that a lap is not valid if the car leaves the track. The “Road surface” is considered to be only the asphalt (or dirt, or ice) part of the track. This means that red-white kerbe, side walls on the ramp, etc. are not valid surface.

Whether you gain or lose time is not important, leaving the road invalidates the replay

=== 3. Replay validation ===

GAR replays will usually be peer-reviewed to check that the races did not take shortcuts. For consistent results, this is done viewing the replay using Stunts' "fixed camera" view with the camera set in a specific position: in replay mode, press F3, then press Ctrl-Right 3 times, then Ctrl-Up 10 times. This way, the view will show the roof of the car, with the nose pointing toward the top of the screen.

While it is possible to hide the replay bar and show the car interior pressing, respectively, R and D, checking the replay should be done in the default configuration, with only the replay bar visible.

=== 4. Driving through stunts element ===

Stunts and special elements should be traversed without cutting or using them to speed-up the car.

In particular:

* '''4.a''' Divided highways: do not use it the inside wall to jump and speed-up
* '''4.b''' Corkscrews: enter and exit the corkscrew following the yellow line without jumping above wall, cutting outside the ramp, or trying to speed-up artificially
* '''4.c''' Loops: perform the loop following the yellow line, without cutting through the middle, or on the outside
* '''4.d''' Slalom blocks: the car should drive ''between'' the blocks; exploiting the bug that allows cars to drive through the concrete barriers invalidates the lap
* '''4.e''' Half-pipes: traverse the pipe without speeding-up using side-wall jumps

=== 5. Involuntary speed-ups ===

Speed-ups caused by entering or leaving a banked road are common and often unavoidable, and therefore considered valid. For courtesy, you should publicly apologise for the lucky conditions, as tennis players do when touching the net.

=== 6. Lap video recording ===

When running Stunts inside [[DosBox]], it is possible to record a video of the performance pressing Ctrl-Alt-F5.

Although this is not compulsory, it can be useful to brag about your [[NoRH]] skill with a wider audience. If you expect your lap to be very strong, other players might also ask for proof of clean driving, so recording a video will clear any doubts.

=== Resources ===

A video recorded by [[Marco]] is available with more details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJwRP06Clq0

OWOOT

2019-02-13T21:55:14Z

Dreadnaut: Add link to GAR page

'''OWOOT''' stands for "One wheel on/over track", and is a rule for certain competitions. The rule means that you have to have at least one wheel on or over the track at all times. This means you cannot leave the road and make shortcuts, which makes for a totally different, cleaner and more perfectionistic races. The expression and the rule were first developed by [[Ruepel]] and [[Pershing II]] who made the [[ISA competition]] with this rule in 2002.<br>
<br>
There is one general exception to the OWOOT rule: the grass square in the middle of a jump. Additionaly, there are a few variations on how the OWOOT rule gets implemented in competitions. The variants may be classified in "strict" or "free" OWOOT rules.<br>

== Strict OWOOT ==

Strict OWOOT rule (often refered to as '''IRC rules''') means no shorcuts ''at all'', meaning that racers must drive all stunt elements completely and "follow the yellow dots" in loops and corkscrews.

=== List of Strict OWOOT competitions ===

* [[IRC]] competition
* [[WSC]] competition
* [[The Southern Cross Stunts Trophy]] (two wheels must be on or over the track)
* [[Copa Stunts]] (two wheels must be on or over the track)
* [[Race For Immortality]] event
* [[Race For Kicks]] tournament

== Free OWOOT ==

Free OWOOT rule (often refered to as '''ISA rules''') means that you can cut some stunt elements (like driving only the right side of the corkscrew left/right), or jump over them.<br>

=== List of Free OWOOT competitions ===

* [[ISA competition]]
* [[IMSA_Cup|IMSA Cup]] (jump over corks up/down and left/right allowed, but no loopcut allowed)
* [[WRC Stunts]] (only cuts done by jumping over track elements with OWOOT are allowed)
* [[HOTU_Stunts|HOTU Stunts]] competition in 2003 (all cuts allowed as long as you stayed over the road)
* [[Campeonato JACStunts Brasil|JACStunts]] (two wheels must be on or over the track, and no elements may be skipped except by flying over up/down corks)

== Other variants ==

'''TWOOT''' refers to rules in which two wheels, rather than just one, must stay on or over the track.

'''[[GAR]]''', short for "Gentlemen's Agreement Rules", refers to the combination of strict OWOOT and [[NoRH]], as established by [[Marco]] and featured in the unofficial GAR scoreboard added by ZakStunts in the 2016 season.

Occasionally (e.g. when discussing [[live racing]]) a looser concept of "following the road" or "following the yellow line" may be used; the intended meaning typically being a more lenient variant of Free OWOOT, in which minor faults like leaving momentarily the road when driving through a [[chicane]] might be ignored.
