Mingva:

'''Orion''' was founded by [[Mingva]] and [[Alain]] in June 2002. The team became [[ZakStunts]] champions in 2003 and 2006 seasons.

== Season 2002. Founding a team ==

[[image:logo_orion.jpg|250px|right|thumb]]It all began in the [[Stunts chatroom|chatroom]] and on the [[Stunts_Forum|forum]]. A novice Stunts racer [[Mingva]] seemed to keep stats for the #stunts channel as he stayed online all day. By that time, [[Alain]] was searching for some method to be better in his favorite abandonware game. After some lovely talks on chat, Mingva and Alain agreed to start racing together.

|}

===First races and the first victory===

The first race for Orion team probably was [[ZCT]] Plus#1 track in [[ZakStunts]]. Alain writes: ''"I remember Mingva committing harder in the Plus competition. He showed me incredible things with the [[Porsche March Indy|indy car]], and I tried to do like him without being able to reach his time until the very last days".'' Mingva finished 3rd, losing only to [[Roy Wiegerinck]] and [[Bonzai Joe]]. Alain was 6th, meaning the teamwork made them stronger than the average.

Another race was on ZCT15 track, which ended in 15 July. Using automatic gear wasn't a good option to catch the rhythm of the leaders. But as planned, both finished in points: Alain in 9th place while Mingva just behind, 10th. [[Alan Rotoi]] was driving for his first podium there.

Meanwhile, Orion members decided to take a challenge (as well as to gain experience) in another Stunts contest. By this time, two Austrian drivers [[Pershing II]] and [[Ruepel]] maintained the [[ISA competition]]. In that time Alain simply was unable to toggle [[Power_gear|sixth gear]] in jumps, loops and relevant parts of the tracks. Both team drivers finished last on Adelaide. No better result was to expect from the next track, London.

In July something began to change for Orion. The team had to know victory and success. Not on ZCT16, where Alain drove a red [[Acura NSX]] named 'jodie red special' and earned a podium! But ZCT Plus#2 was a real Orion triumph. The first victory for the team was achieved by Mingva, after couple of intense competition days. Alain just could not follow the pace. The car was [[Skoda Felicia Kompressor]], a very fast and tricky one, that bumped your eyes out of your head when you brake, and that accelerate out of control in a twinkling of an eye.

===Three new drivers===

After the first victory, the team started to assimilate new drivers. In 5 August [[Krys Toff]] joined Orion. A french driver who started professionally in [[France Stunts Championship]] (maintained by Alain), added much to Orion team thanks to his fighting spirit and great ambitions.

The third historical driver of Orion team joined in 5 September. It was [[Leo Ramone]] from Brazil. Leo started his international racing career in ISA competition as a member of his own team [[LabOnLine]].

In 10 November on the chatroom, place where all the racers wanted to be, Mingva met [[Argammon]], former member of the [[Euroteam MasterStunts]] team. Argammon spoke about exchanging replays, but after a short discussion made a stunning move to young Orion team. His points came to Orion team that helped to reach the 4th place in [[ZakStunts]] team rankings, teasing the [[Looping Warriors]].

Each of those drivers tried to add their points and professionalism to the team. But only Krys Toff had a constant, powerful career on the same level as Mingva and Alain. Leo always drove automatic gears... an outdated driving device that costed ten seconds a lap. Argammon never tried hard to force his incredible talent, hence inherited the reputation of a lazy driver.

===Struggling for the podium===

After Alain's podium on ZCT16, the next race was a failure. But not ZCT18 where Alain finished 2nd and won the first [[LTB|leading time points]] of history. Interesting moment, because during that race Orion team suffered a '''first crisis'''. It must have come from some stupid complains about an [[ISA competition]], administrated then by Mingva. Anger in the forum and in emails lasted from 17 to 19 October. Alain simply decided to quit Orion and so founded [[Hyperion]] team, trying to make Krys Toff and Leo Ramone join him... sad. But finally 'il professore' accepted the truth and rejoined: ''"my behavior was excessively hard, and I could not win races by arguing... only by racing harder than speaking".''

Then ZCT19 was an average race once more. But not ZCT20. Here Alain sent a podium replay on the last days, offered by the lack of motivation from the top racers, that played no more for the championship crown as [[Bonzai Joe]] already was secured the 1st place in ZakStunts'2002.

== Season 2003. Champions!!! ==

It was a Golden Era for Orion team. [[ZakStunts]] season started with [[Dual League]]. Alain with Argammon started in Pro but soon Krys Toff and Mingva promoted there as well. Only Leo Ramone spent all the time in amateur division. Race after race Alain climbed to the 1st place in ZakStunts'2003 competition and Orion won team championship!!!

''still under construction''

== Season 2004. Taking a break ==

After unforgettable season in 2003, Orion team adventure was over. Krys Toff stated the need for change, and announced his desire to race just for pleasure. Leo Ramone was released from the team, Alain and Mingva said goodbye to Orion as well. But Orion founders couldn't race without each other, so at the end of January 2004 they formed [[Mimas Racing]] team.

[[image:Mingva.jpg|162px|right|thumb|Racer photo done by Alain]]

'''Mingva''' is a Lithuanian racer who debuted in May 2002, being a member of the [[Golden Generation]]. He formed the original incarnation of the highly successful [[Orion]] team together with [[Alain]]. After the end of the [[ISA competition]] in 2002, he also became the manager of its successor, the [[IRC]] (Indy Racing Cup), one of the key Stunts competitions from that era. Mingva was, additionally, the main responsible for making usage of [[Advanced Replay Handling]], the universal [[RH Hiding]] technique. On track, his best results were [[ZakStunts]] victories on ZCT Plus#2 and ZCT32, where Alain slowed down at the end to let his teammate win.

A highly active community member at first, Mingva gradually faded away from community life, and in 2004 his main contribution to the community was some nasty flamewars with [[Akoss Poo]] and [[CTG]]. During these flamewars, Mingva became part of a well-known rhyme: "Mingva le van fingva", made up by the [[Looping Warriors]], which means ''Somebody farted on Mingva''.

Mingva retired from [[Stunts]] racing at the end of 2004 season, but still made two minor attempts in 2005. However, in June 2009 he would make a striking comeback to both community life and competition under the alias ''Paradisio''.

Mingva:

Famous team of season 2003, founded by the merge of [[Looping Warriors]] and [[Unskilled Drivers]]. Team's name was coming from the game, when the AI opponent is close to your car (another option for team's name was 'Fasten your seatbelt!'). Members of the team were [[Akoss Poo]], [[Bismarck]] (for a short time), [[CTG]], [[PedroAntonio]] (for a short time) and [[Usrin]]. The best result of the team was an overall second place (3990.92 pts) in [[ZakStunts]] 2003 behind [[Orion]] (4026.39 pts) and ahead of [[Cork's Crew]] (3986.08 pts).

After [[CTG]] left the team for [[Damage Inc]] in 2004, name changed back to [[Looping Warriors]].

Average Joe

2010-02-25T21:09:26Z

Mingva:

'''Average Joe''' is a team founded in June 2009 as a partnership between returning veteran [[Mingva]] (under the alias Paradisio) and reverse engineering hero [[dstien]]. The team lineup would be augmented by [[Renato Biker]] and [[Alain]], who joined on their comebacks in ZCT99 and [[ZCT100]] respectively. This spectacular turn of events have shaped Average Joe as a successor of sorts to the legendary [[Orion]] team.

Krys Toff

2010-02-25T20:52:42Z

Mingva: Some style edit

French player who joined in 2002 as a member of the [[Golden Generation|golden generation]] of Stunts. He's by far the most active racer ever (over 300 races) and he also managed competitions: [[IMSA Cup]], [[WRC Stunts]] and [[Feel The Thrill]]. His best results: two times [[Stunts LOL]] champion (2002, 2003), [[HOTU Stunts]] champion in 2003, silver (2005/2006, 2006/2007) and bronze (2003, 2004/2005) medalist of [[UnskilledStunts|USC]]. 
 
'''Career as a Stunts racer''': 
Joined the community at the end of July 2002, and signed with [[Orion]] team the month after. He also raced in sub-Orion teams in ISA/IRC competitions as there were allowed only 2 drivers per team, and Orion was already represented by [[Mingva]] and [[Alain il Professore]]. Thus, he raced as member of [[Pegasus]] team with [[Alain]]'s brother, Seyia in 2002 at [[ISA]] competition, and so he did in [[IRC]] competition (sequel to ISA competition) with [[Leo Ramone]] in [[Stunts Temple Pilots]] team for 2003 season. 
At the end of 2003 he decided to leave Orion team and created [[Damage Inc|Damage Inc.]] team with [[CTG]] and [[Diesel Joe]]. 
 
He's the father of 4 children, and 2 of them raced a few Stunts races under the nicks [[Daffy Duck]] and [[Tweety Bird]]. 
Krys Toff also has a reputation for his wide knowldege of rock music. People also call him "The Horny Frenchman" and "Krys Töff" or, paying homage to the wonders of the Hungarian language, Krys [[BÖFF]].

Dark Chaser

Mingva:

Brazilian racer whose career started in 2004, also known as ''Darkie'' or ''Alê'' (a contraction of Alexandre). Dark Chaser became the first Brazilian to achieve top-driver status after [[Fdzierva]] won the first two [[ZakStunts]] races. Alongside with racing and winning the second season of [[4D Stunts League]], Dark Chaser took part in ZakStunts as a member of [[The Guns Of Brixton]]. His talents soon opened him doors in other teams, and so he moved to [[Damage Inc.]] in 2005 and then to [[Orion]] in 2006. During that period, he achieved a second place in ZakStunts (Z50), as well as a victory in [[USC]] (Porto, season 2005-2006). After the 2006 season, Dark Chaser essentially retired from racing, save for a comeback on the first half of 2009, in which, among other things, he won the second season of [[JACStunts]] with incredibly strong performances under the demanding [[NoRH]]/[[OWOOT]] ruleset. A popular racer in his heyday, Dark Chaser was notorious for his numerous 14-days leaves, always neatly announced by the [[Stunts Forum|forum]]. He also is a close friend of another Brazilian racer, [[vamologocomisso]].

One of the wackiest [[Stunts]] contests managed by brazilian racer [[Leo Ramone]] in 2002-2004. The competition started silently in mid of 2002 until
[[Alan Rotoi]] found it by searching various Stunts related sites. The first season consisted of 6 races, but 4 of them finished with ''No Times''.
[[Krys Toff]] became the first '''Stunts LOL''' champion just by winning his debut race.

Next year, in 2003, the contest received much more attention. It was kind of an unofficial [[Orion]] training ground, as the most active racers were members of this team. So no surprise '''Krys Toff''' defended the champion title, while '''Orion''' won Teams championship in a big margin.

The third season saw slightly bigger activity on tracks, but racer number stayed the same as previous year, a dozen. This time [[Gutix]] was a dominant force with top activity and 6 victories.

HOTU Stunts

2010-02-25T20:06:50Z

Mingva: Some style edit

A competition started in 2002 by Jim9137 (occasionally known as Jim9136), a well-known member of the HOTU (Home Of The Underdogs) abandonware forum. The first season lasted only 1 race in 2002. Then two complete seasons of 6 races occurred in 2003 and 2004. Seasons 1 and 2 were with "free" [[OWOOT]] rule, while 3rd season was a free racing with all shortcuts allowed.

One famous feature of this competition was the funny comments at the end of the race, made by two radio commentators named "Jim and John".

This competition also featured a second scoreboard apart from the racing one: the "insane" scoreboard. Goal was to do some insane tricks or crashes in replays, and '''ISB''' (Insane Stunt Bonus) points were then given to the racer by "Jim and John".

ZakStunts

2010-02-16T21:07:22Z

Mingva: /* Medal Table */

Long name: [[Zak McKracken]]'s Stunts Competition, or [[Zak McKracken|Zak]]'s Stunts Competition. An online competition running continuously since March 2001, now in its 8th season holds the title of the longest running competition.
It was also the first competition which required racers to drive different cars each month, and also the first one to implement a fully automatic php based replay sending form and scoreboard system. Although there were competitions with higher number of participants, ZakStunts is often considered as the most influential competition of the online Stunts community.

== History of ZakStunts ==

===2001===

[[image:Zshist_1.jpg|200px|right|thumb|ZakStunts site ''circa'' 2001...]] The first season only started in March, and only had 9 tracks, as one track, during the summer lasted for two months. The original concept included the [[Opponents]] commenting the sent replays. Competitors mainly arrived from the biggest and best of the time - the [[Kalpen Competition]], and achieved 10 racers/month at most.

The winner of the season was [[Roy Wiegerinck]], with [[Ben Snel]] and manager [[Zak McKracken]] finishing close.
{{-}}

===2002===

[[image:Zshist_3.jpg|200px|left|thumb|2002...]] The second season was the first full-length season of ZakStunts. As the Kalpen competition closed and others not so popular, ZakStunts took the reputation of the biggest and most prestigious competition on the web. This season [[:Category:Teams|Teams]] were introduced, and racers started to cooperate with each other, or in some strange cases with themselves, using [[Ghosts]]. Racer number reached an incredible 20/month, and the number of replays sent started to get unbearable for the manager. Also ZakStunts didn't only host a competition, but served as an abandonware site too, offering various racing games for download - so raising the number of the site visitors and the racers.

During the summer months, three so called "Special" tracks were presented, with their averaged result counting as one competition track. These tracks required [[Cheated cars]] or [[Special rules]] to finish, and have shown the potential of some newcomers. From October a new feature, [[LTB|Leading Time Bonus]], was introduced as opposite to a negative effect of [[Time hiding]].

The winner of the season was expert driver [[Bonzai Joe]], while a newbie, joined only in April, named [[Alan Rotoi]], aka. 'The Dog' came second, and the former champion, [[Roy Wiegerinck]] only finished third.

===2003===

[[image:Zshist_4.jpg|200px|right|thumb|2003...]] The third season gave a BIG twist to ZakStunts. Introduced a completely insane point system, and the [[Dual League]], where the top 10 drivers formed the Pro league, and the others the Amateur league, Relegations/place changes on the last/first three places took place each month, Pro/Amateur drivers raced the same tracks.
Of course in order to handle this excessive amount of activity and replays, a semi-automatized PHP system was created and installed by [[Zak McKracken]], where racers could send the replays online, with the help of a web form, and so their times immediately appeared on the [[Scoreboard]]. ZakStunts also stopped to work as an abandonware site, as the required number of racers seemed to be reached (around 20/month)

In this season, the competition got really fierce and hard, and a previously unknown amount of teamwork was shown by the teams. The community life was also flourishing, with the forum running and night-long chats taking place in the IRC chatroom.

Apart from all this chaos, a secondary competition (called [[ACT]]) was also hosted, with tracks designed each month by the winner of The 2002 [[Track Design Contest]] (TDC), [[Akoss Poo]]. We can conclude, that 2003 was perhaps the busiest season of ZakStunts.

Winner of the season was frenchman [[Alain]] from the dominating team [[Orion]], former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] came second, and the third place on the podium was reached by [[Akoss Poo]].

===2004===

[[image:Zshist_5.jpg|200px|left|thumb|... and 2004.]]In its fourth season ZakStunts tried to return to a simpler form. [[Dual League]] and secondary competition were dropped, and the point system was also simplified. In order to restrict heavy teamwork, the maximum number of team members was reduced to 4. Another improvement was the [[TDB]] rule, which similar to the 107% rule in Formula One, gave one bonus point to the drivers close to the leader.

Racer number dropped to an average of 15/month, and the site visitor number to its half. Still, community life was going on, and in August the first [[WSM|World Stunts Meeting]] took place in Budapest.

With team [[Orion]] falling apart, new top drivers appeared. Thanks to [[Alan Rotoi]] a very strong South-American Stunts scene evolved, and the better racers started to appear on ZakStunts too. One of them became champion: [[Gutix]]. In a hard battle, [[Akoss Poo]] came second, and former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] third.

===2005===

In 2005, the rules were more simplified, and the original, simple linear point system was reintroduced with the aid of the successful [[LTB]] The goal of ZakStunts was no more gathering new racers, but to present a demanding competition for the top dogs. Still, the number of participants was a huge surprise, surpassing 30 racers on some tracks. Racers who would have got zero points received fraction points, so a ranking still could be made.

The community became more compact, but also more active, altough many former regulars have left, there were still 15 racers, who raced on all, or almost all the tracks. We also had the unforgettable second [[WSM]] in Denmark.

Team race was dominated by the Argentinian-Brazilian team created by [[Alan Rotoi]]: [[Meganium Aces High]]. Alan only stayed in the background, managing his students, like former champion [[Gutix]], and the new champion, who raced like thunder, but never talked: [[Ayrton]]. Former champion [[Alain]] made a successful comeback, and finished second, while the third was the highly evolving Hungarian: [[CTG]]

===2006===

This year not much has changed. The system stayed the same - as it was considered successful, only the first 15 racers received points, not the top twelve. The overall racer number decreased a lot, but there was still a hard core, with 15 racers there, almost each month. Another meeting took place, again in Budapest, perhaps a bit more quiet than the previous ones, but we greeted each other as good old friends, and parted as even better ones :)

This season was the battle of the teams. [[Meganium Aces High]], [[Cork's Crew]] and [[Orion]] all battled for the Team Champion title, but finally the reborn Orion won beating "Oldies" Cork's and "Dog team" Meganium.

Nobody managed to win the ZakStunts twice until 2008 - and suprisingly this year again a newbie won the battle: [[Renato Biker]] from Brazil, under the guidance of former champion [[Alain]]. [[CTG]] made another step of improvement, and arrived second, while the best live racer [[Bonzai Joe]] came third.

At the end of the season, manager [[Zak McKracken]] started to prepare for his state exam and so started lose his motivation, racer number and community activity dropped significantly. Something had to change.

===2007===

This year was a major turnaround again. As there were many successful and actively managed competitions running beside ZakStunts, something exceptional had to be offered. The idea was to have special rules each month, similar to the ones used on the summer bonus tracks of 2002.

Altough some of the rules turned out to be quite intresting and funny, racer number and activity dropped and dropped , barely reaching 10/month, and the manager's motivation sunk with it. Still, the decreased number of racers didn't mean the drop of the competition value, races were still hard as a rock.

Earlier ZakStunts hosted some guest track designers, but during the summertime, track design was completely handed over to the always fresh, active (and horny :)) [[Krys TOFF]]. A competition without a manager is not a competition - even if it runs by itself. During the summer a season shortening to 9 tracks was announced, and after the 8th track of the season (and the 78th of ZakStunts), when [[CTG]] being the new champion was assured - the competition paused for an indefinite period.

The break did good to the manager :) He was thinking a lot, and eventually found out, that he can't live without his competition. After several new ideas born and buried, the concept of the 2008 season was announced, and the last track of the current season presented: no [[Special rules]], and a well-known track: [[Default]].

===2008===

2008 was the rebirth of ZakStunts. The manager admitted that the concept of the special rules was a failure, but as many of the other current successful competitions announced planned closure, there was a need for ZakStunts to go on, and let Stunts live forward.

The new concept of 2008 can be best defined as "the freedom of choice". Everyone was allowed drive with his chosen car and the achieved times are multiplied with pre-set bonus percentages based on car tests. This way everyone can bring out the best of his talent, using the most favorite or most suitable car for the track.

After a few minor problems the concept seemed to work fine. Some driver criticized the new concept as it demands more time from the racers and makes the creation of race statistics really hard, but the positive results were clear to see: more racers and more replays sent.

The main problem of the new car bonus percentage system was the problem of the ever-growing bonuses, which was temporarily solved with bonus adjustments throughout the season. However with the new rule set of the 2009 season this problem seems to be resolved.

The level of the 2008 competition was clearly above the 2007 level, approaching previously seen lower-activity seasons, such as 2006 and 2004.

The season was special in the aspect of winner. One racer could do what others could not done before: [[Ayrton]] won the ZakStunts title for the second time, by winning all the tracks throughout the month. Racers of the newer generations, [[Duplode]] and [[Mark L. Rivers]] came second and third.

===2009===
The 2009 brought only minor changes and corrections to the 2008 rules. As the community got stronger, the team championship was also restarted after its one-year break. Several newbies appeared in the first races. Hopefully this gives a further boost to the community this year.

Default

2010-02-16T20:06:22Z

Mingva:

'''Default''' is one of the six tracks from Stunts' set of pre-made tracks. As the name implies, it is the track selected by default whenever the game is started (and in fact Stunts will fail to start in the lack of a track file named DEFAULT.TRK in the game root directory). Since it is nearly always the very first track a player comes across, as well as being short and relatively simple, Default is commonly used by racers, especially newbies, as a benchmark. Another interesting trait of Default is the presence of two different paths, one of them being substantially longer and somewhat trickier than the other. That design characteristic opens the way for [[Dual-way switching]] exploits, necessary for reaching times comparable to the overall records.

Besides holding a number of unofficial or semi-official "permanent competitions", the Default track used for a very special [[ZakStunts]] race, ZCT79 with the [[Porsche March Indy]]. That choice, loaded with symbolism, was motivated by ZCT79 being the closing race for the troubled [[ZakStunts#2007|2007]] ZakStunts season, held only after an unprecedented three month break of the competition. The race, after many successive world record breakings, was won by [[Ayrton]].

Retro track

In-game editor

2010-02-16T11:53:23Z

Mingva:

[[image:Trackeditor.gif|240px|right|thumb|A simple editor to make your own tracks]]

Easy to handle, this editor allow you to create a track with the use of the mouse, unlike external track editors.

How to use it ?
Simply click on the chosen track element on the right and put it on the left main screen to put the element on the track. You can switch between the different categories of track elements with F1 to F10 keys or with the mouse by using the white bar below track elements.
You can also edit the terrain (hills, water) by using the SHIFT+F1 keys. This feature is not written in the [[game_manual|game manual]] but is very useful to be known if you don't want to always race in one of the 5 default terrains of the game.

A documented, but not widely known feature is that you can check the validity of the created track by pressing the C key. This validation is performed the same way when you select driving on the track from the main menu. If the track is invalid, a message is displayed and the cursor moves to the element where the validation failed.

The in-game track editor is one of the reasons (and probably the most important one) that allowed Stunts to have such a long life and an active community among the years. If Stunts had no track editor, this wiki would have probably never existed.
How many racing games were quickly forgotten just because they had a short life due to a small amount of available tracks? Stunts is not like that, thanks to this track editing tool.

But such a tool is not always a key to success. A game similar to Stunts, also created in the beginning of the 1990's, named ''Hard Drivin''' and its sequel ''Hard Drivin' II'', also had an in-game track editor. But it was such a mess to create a valid track that this game never managed to have Stunts' success.

In-game track editor has 2 inconvenients : it doesn't show a full view of the track you create and it doesn't allow any [[bugs|bug]] as the game engine has some strict limitations. This is why some [[external_track_editors|external track/terrain editors]] were created by Stunts fans.

Corvette ZR1

2010-02-16T11:37:52Z

Mingva:

{{Cars|
carname = Corvette ZR1|
image = [[Image:Vett_tab.png|226px|center]]|

}}

The '''Corvette ZR1''' is one of the eleven cars originally included in Stunts. Its general characteristics allow it to be tiered with [[Acura NSX]] as one of the mid-range road cars, being noticeably faster than the likes of [[Audi Quattro Sport|Audi Quattro]] and having somewhat difficult handling, but not as difficult as the really fast road cars such as the [[Ferrari GTO]]. A number of unique traits, however, set the Corvette apart. It is the only car among the original set fitted with a 6-speed transmission, which allows for finer control over speed and power delivery, particularly over the 90-150mph range. These benefits are further enhanced by a very distinctive digital speedometer. Additionally, the ZR1 is one of the [[powergear]] cars. Unlike one might imagine, though, its powergear is much closer to the GTO one than to the NSX, requiring very high speeds (above 210 mph) and usually long chains of jumps to be triggered. One interesting consequence of the Corvette feature set is that contest tracks designed for it tend to have very polarized characteristics, being either super-fast powergear speedways or tricky slow circuits that exploit the tricky handling and speed control capabilities. Corvette never reached widespread popularity among racers. Notably, two of its most famous specialists are members of the Argentinian school - [[Gutix]] and [[Chulk]].

Advanced trick of [[Acura NSX]]. When Acura is in [[Power Gear|powergear]], a certain kind of hard steering forces the car to make a huge bug jump with rotation and after landing it keeps quite high speed. It can be very useful for cutting sharp corners. Angle of rotation can be various. One of the most known helicopter tricks was completed by [[CTG]] at [[ZCT|ZCT55]].

ZakStunts

2010-02-16T11:27:29Z

Mingva: /* 2002 */

Long name: [[Zak McKracken]]'s Stunts Competition, or [[Zak McKracken|Zak]]'s Stunts Competition. An online competition running continuously since March 2001, now in its 8th season holds the title of the longest running competition.
It was also the first competition which required racers to drive different cars each month, and also the first one to implement a fully automatic php based replay sending form and scoreboard system. Although there were competitions with higher number of participants, ZakStunts is often considered as the most influential competition of the online Stunts community.

== History of ZakStunts ==

===2001===

[[image:Zshist_1.jpg|200px|right|thumb|ZakStunts site ''circa'' 2001...]] The first season only started in March, and only had 9 tracks, as one track, during the summer lasted for two months. The original concept included the [[Opponents]] commenting the sent replays. Competitors mainly arrived from the biggest and best of the time - the [[Kalpen Competition]], and achieved 10 racers/month at most.

The winner of the season was [[Roy Wiegerinck]], with [[Ben Snel]] and manager [[Zak McKracken]] finishing close.
{{-}}

===2002===

[[image:Zshist_3.jpg|200px|left|thumb|2002...]] The second season was the first full-length season of ZakStunts. As the Kalpen competition closed and others not so popular, ZakStunts took the reputation of the biggest and most prestigious competition on the web. This season [[:Category:Teams|Teams]] were introduced, and racers started to cooperate with each other, or in some strange cases with themselves, using [[Ghosts]]. Racer number reached an incredible 20/month, and the number of replays sent started to get unbearable for the manager. Also ZakStunts didn't only host a competition, but served as an abandonware site too, offering various racing games for download - so raising the number of the site visitors and the racers.

During the summer months, three so called "Special" tracks were presented, with their averaged result counting as one competition track. These tracks required [[Cheated cars]] or [[Special rules]] to finish, and have shown the potential of some newcomers. From October a new feature, [[LTB|Leading Time Bonus]], was introduced as opposite to a negative effect of [[Time hiding]].

The winner of the season was expert driver [[Bonzai Joe]], while a newbie, joined only in April, named [[Alan Rotoi]], aka. 'The Dog' came second, and the former champion, [[Roy Wiegerinck]] only finished third.

===2003===

[[image:Zshist_4.jpg|200px|right|thumb|2003...]] The third season gave a BIG twist to ZakStunts. Introduced a completely insane point system, and the [[Dual League]], where the top 10 drivers formed the Pro league, and the others the Amateur league, Relegations/place changes on the last/first three places took place each month, Pro/Amateur drivers raced the same tracks.
Of course in order to handle this excessive amount of activity and replays, a semi-automatized PHP system was created and installed by [[Zak McKracken]], where racers could send the replays online, with the help of a web form, and so their times immediately appeared on the [[Scoreboard]]. ZakStunts also stopped to work as an abandonware site, as the required number of racers seemed to be reached (around 20/month)

In this season, the competition got really fierce and hard, and a previously unknown amount of teamwork was shown by the teams. The community life was also flourishing, with the forum running and night-long chats taking place in the IRC chatroom.

Apart from all this chaos, a secondary competition (called [[ACT]]) was also hosted, with tracks designed each month by the winner of The 2002 [[Track Design Contest]] (TDC), [[Akoss Poo]]. We can conclude, that 2003 was perhaps the busiest season of ZakStunts.

Winner of the season was frenchman [[Alain]] from the dominating team [[Orion]], former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] came second, and the third place on the podium was reached by [[Akoss Poo]].

===2004===

[[image:Zshist_5.jpg|200px|left|thumb|... and 2004.]]In its fourth season ZakStunts tried to return to a simpler form. [[Dual League]] and secondary competition were dropped, and the point system was also simplified. In order to restrict heavy teamwork, the maximum number of team members was reduced to 4. Another improvement was the [[TDB]] rule, which similar to the 107% rule in Formula One, gave one bonus point to the drivers close to the leader.

Racer number dropped to an average of 15/month, and the site visitor number to its half. Still, community life was going on, and in August the first [[WSM|World Stunts Meeting]] took place in Budapest.

With team [[Orion]] falling apart, new top drivers appeared. Thanks to [[Alan Rotoi]] a very strong South-American Stunts scene evolved, and the better racers started to appear on ZakStunts too. One of them became champion: [[Gutix]]. In a hard battle, [[Akoss Poo]] came second, and former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] third.

===2005===

In 2005, the rules were more simplified, and the original, simple linear point system was reintroduced with the aid of the successful [[LTB]] The goal of ZakStunts was no more gathering new racers, but to present a demanding competition for the top dogs. Still, the number of participants was a huge surprise, surpassing 30 racers on some tracks. Racers who would have got zero points received fraction points, so a ranking still could be made.

The community became more compact, but also more active, altough many former regulars have left, there were still 15 racers, who raced on all, or almost all the tracks. We also had the unforgettable second [[WSM]] in Denmark.

Team race was dominated by the Argentinian-Brazilian team created by [[Alan Rotoi]]: [[Meganium Aces High]]. Alan only stayed in the background, managing his students, like former champion [[Gutix]], and the new champion, who raced like thunder, but never talked: [[Ayrton]]. Former champion [[Alain]] made a successful comeback, and finished second, while the third was the highly evolving Hungarian: [[CTG]]

===2006===

This year not much has changed. The system stayed the same - as it was considered successful, only the first 15 racers received points, not the top twelve. The overall racer number decreased a lot, but there was still a hard core, with 15 racers there, almost each month. Another meeting took place, again in Budapest, perhaps a bit more quiet than the previous ones, but we greeted each other as good old friends, and parted as even better ones :)

This season was the battle of the teams. [[Meganium Aces High]], [[Cork's Crew]] and [[Orion]] all battled for the Team Champion title, but finally the reborn Orion won beating "Oldies" Cork's and "Dog team" Meganium.

Nobody managed to win the ZakStunts twice until 2008 - and suprisingly this year again a newbie won the battle: [[Renato Biker]] from Brazil, under the guidance of former champion [[Alain]]. [[CTG]] made another step of improvement, and arrived second, while the best live racer [[Bonzai Joe]] came third.

At the end of the season, manager [[Zak McKracken]] started to prepare for his state exam and so started lose his motivation, racer number and community activity dropped significantly. Something had to change.

===2007===

This year was a major turnaround again. As there were many successful and actively managed competitions running beside ZakStunts, something exceptional had to be offered. The idea was to have special rules each month, similar to the ones used on the summer bonus tracks of 2002.

Altough some of the rules turned out to be quite intresting and funny, racer number and activity dropped and dropped , barely reaching 10/month, and the manager's motivation sunk with it. Still, the decreased number of racers didn't mean the drop of the competition value, races were still hard as a rock.

Earlier ZakStunts hosted some guest track designers, but during the summertime, track design was completely handed over to the always fresh, active (and horny :)) [[Krys TOFF]]. A competition without a manager is not a competition - even if it runs by itself. During the summer a season shortening to 9 tracks was announced, and after the 8th track of the season (and the 78th of ZakStunts), when [[CTG]] being the new champion was assured - the competition paused for an indefinite period.

The break did good to the manager :) He was thinking a lot, and eventually found out, that he can't live without his competition. After several new ideas born and buried, the concept of the 2008 season was announced, and the last track of the current season presented: no [[Special rules]], and a well-known track: [[Default]].

===2008===

2008 was the rebirth of ZakStunts. The manager admitted that the concept of the special rules was a failure, but as many of the other current successful competitions announced planned closure, there was a need for ZakStunts to go on, and let Stunts live forward.

The new concept of 2008 can be best defined as "the freedom of choice". Everyone was allowed drive with his chosen car and the achieved times are multiplied with pre-set bonus percentages based on car tests. This way everyone can bring out the best of his talent, using the most favorite or most suitable car for the track.

After a few minor problems the concept seemed to work fine. Some driver criticized the new concept as it demands more time from the racers and makes the creation of race statistics really hard, but the positive results were clear to see: more racers and more replays sent.

The main problem of the new car bonus percentage system was the problem of the ever-growing bonuses, which was temporarily solved with bonus adjustments throughout the season. However with the new rule set of the 2009 season this problem seems to be resolved.

The level of the 2008 competition was clearly above the 2007 level, approaching previously seen lower-activity seasons, such as 2006 and 2004.

The season was special in the aspect of winner. One racer could do what others could not done before: [[Ayrton]] won the ZakStunts title for the second time, by winning all the tracks throughout the month. Racers of the newer generations, [[Duplode]] and [[Mark L. Rivers]] came second and third.

===2009===
The 2009 brought only minor changes and corrections to the 2008 rules. As the community got stronger, the team championship was also restarted after its one-year break. Several newbies appeared in the first races. Hopefully this gives a further boost to the community this year.

Alan Rotoi

2010-02-16T11:07:11Z

Mingva:

An Argentinian Stunts legend, and probably the best racer ever not to have won a Zakstunts season. Alan Rotoi joined the community as part of the [[Golden Generation]] in April 2002 and entered with style: 5th place on ZCT14, 3rd place on ZCT15 and then three consecutive first places on ZCT16, 17 and 18. Alan Rotoi's [[ZCT16]] is one of the most famous replays in existence because, apart from being a breathtaking power gear ride, it was the first one to make crucial and successful use of the [[Magic Carpet]]. Rotoi won this track with a 9 second gap to second place. Despite his dominance in the middle part of 2002, Rotoi lost the Zakstunts season to [[Bonzai Joe]], who had been playing from the beginning of the season, and also won the last two tracks. 
Alan Rotoi continued racing in the top of the scoreboard until early 2004, when another Argentinian racer arrived and took the Zakstunts throne: [[Gutix]].
 
In 2003, Alan Rotoi sent shockwaves through the Stunts world by opening the [[4D Stunts League|4dstunts]] competition, which had more than 60 racers in the first race - easily the highest number of racers one one track ever. This competition showed the potential of Stunts, and although the racers numbers declined from the astronomic beginning, the tournament continued on a high participation level for about a year.
 
Alan Rotoi was one of the central figures in the community during 2002-2004, and although he has fallen into the background since then, he still comes back occasionally - notably he made a top result on ZCT79 which was [[Default]] with the [[Indy]].

Custom cars

2010-02-16T10:56:46Z

Mingva: /* Examples of cheated cars */

The term '''cheat car''' can be used, often interchangeably with ''custom car'', to refer to any modified version of the Stunts' set of original cars, created by hex-editing CAR*.RES files (either directly or through the [[Car_Blaster|Car Blaster]] tool) and, optionally, swapping, mixing or modifying the car graphics files (see the [[Car_files|explanations on car files]]).

Although some cheat cars have much better performance than any of the original cars (thus being cheat cars ''stricto sensu''), such as the Lada Niva Comeback, others were developed as vehicles with reasonably realistic characteristics, the most prominent example being the [[Melange XGT-88]]. Custom cars approved for usage in [[ZakStunts]] (as of 2009, [[Nissan Skyline|Skyline]], [[Speedgate]] and [[Ford Ranger|Ranger]]) can also be included into the latter category. For these, the term "custom car" tends to be employed instead of cheat car. Cheat/custom car design, which once appeared to have become something of a lost art, is experiencing a revival largely thanks to the new possibilities of graphics customization opened by [[stressed]].

== Examples of cheated cars ==

For [[Stunts 1.1]] version :
* [[Melange XGT-88]] (**)
* [[Speedgate XSD]] (*)
* [[Nissan Skyline|Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R]] (*)
* [[Ford Ranger]] (*)
* [[Coconut Car Coronet Pulsar STi-R]]
* [[LWT-ZR1 GT3 Mark II]] (*)
* [[LWT-ZR1 GTC Mark I]]
* [[Skoda Felicia Kompressor]]
* [[Honda NSX]]
* [[Coconut Car GTR 7.5 GT IMSA]]
* [[Porsche 911 Turbo]]
* [[Wooden WireFire]]
* [[The Ditsch Car]]
* [[Lada Niva Comeback]]
* [[Knight Rider]]
 
For [[Stunts 1.0]] version :
* [[4D Contest Car]]
* [[Hummer Charger]]
* [[Lamborghini Pro]]
* [[Lancia Speed]]
* [[Porsche Supra]]
* [[Super Corvette]]
* [[The Phantom]]
* [[Warrior Car]]
 

''(*) indicates the car has custom graphics available.''

''(**) indicates the car has custom graphics under development.''

== Rumoured cars ==

Some additional cars, mentioned as "hidden cars", used to be described in the Stunts page in English main Wikipedia encyclopedia :
 
''In addition to the cars listed above there were 4-6 cars in the PC Version which were not in the game proper, but which could be accessed through a sub directory in the game. Some of the cars in this directory included the following;

* Antique Roadster
* K-Car Type
* Economy Hatchback''
 
No link or proof has been provided by the person who added these comments in the Wikipedia page. I put a "citation needed" comment and hope to see the writer explain where this comes from and, if possible, provide a link to get these cars.

Dragonfly

2010-02-16T10:47:14Z

Mingva:

One of the [[ghosts]] from [[CTG]]'s phantom army with 4 races in [[ZakStunts]] 2005. Nick was given by [[CTG]] and [[Akoss Poo]] because of their MSN partner (Zitus, with nickname Szitukakötő; Szitakötő means Dragonfly in Hungarian). He was said to be a racer from the United States. His best result was a 5th place (ZCT54).

Stunts

2010-02-16T10:44:30Z

Mingva:

'''Stunts''' is a racing game from the year 1990. The game was programmed by [[Distinctive Software|DSI]] and published by [[Brøderbund]] in [[Game versions|versions]] 1.0 and 1.1 for PC. At the same time, [[Mindscape]] released the game under the name '''[[4D Sports Driving]]''', in an alternate version 1.1 for PC and 1.2 for the [[Amiga]]. A final Japan-only release, labelled ''4D Driving 1.0'', would later be made for [[FM Towns]] and [[PC-9801]] systems. The game had fully-3D polygonal graphics, which were stunning and revolutionary at that time. The influence from the predecessor [[Test Drive]] (also developed by [[Distinctive Software|DSI]]) was easy to spot because of the similar graphics and game structure.

==The game==

On a big square area defined and surrounded by a fence you can race on a track (or off the track) in different [[:Category:Cars|cars]], with either automatic or manual transmission. You can either race against the clock or choose between six different [[Opponents|opponents]]. The goal is to go from start to finish as quickly as possible. A great thing about this game is that you do not have to race only the racing tracks that come with it: there is a built-in [[In-game editor|track editor]] that allows you to design your own tracks with different track parts in a very simple way. The game is called ''Stunts'' because of special track parts such as loops, jumps (over tall buildings!), slalom roads and corkscrews. You can save every race you drive as a so-called [[Replay|"replay"]], and then watch them again and again afterwards from several different perspectives.

==Stunts today==

Although the game obviously is more than 10 years old it is still greatly loved all over the world. Already in the middle of the nineties the first websites with information and downloads on Stunts were created. Close to the end of the 90’s, the game was first declared abandonware and then finally declared freeware by the game developers themselves, allowing many people to rediscover it. The game spread quickly over the internet because the game size is less than 1MB when zipped, an important consideration back then.
When the first online [[:Category:Competitions|competitions]] (in which the competition master would receive race replays on specific tracks per email) started, the game began - considering its age - to boom. Up to this day, as the game approaches twenty years of existence, there is a solid worldwide Stunts [[:Category:Community|community]]. Several competitions are active right now, and there are tens of [[Stunts websites]], a very lively [[Stunts Forum]]. Even [[World Stunts Meeting]]s became a reality, with three editions having been held as of now.

==Running the game==

Back in the early nineties, Stunts was made to be runnable on a wide assortment of computers - even the lowly XT's were fair game! Nowadays, players often face the opposite problem of making an old game run under modern hardware/software, and Stunts is no exception. Purists will of course prefer playing on their legacy 386/486 machines, or at least from an actual DOS OS using a bootdisk, but that option gets more and more inconvenient as the years go by. Old Windows 95 and 98 systems have access to MS-DOS, but XP and above have poor DOS emulation for our purposes, leading to lack of sound, slowdowns and other glitches. Fortunately, there is an alternate approach thanks to [[DOSBox]], the famous DOS emulator. It allows Stunts to run virtually flawlessly under not only XP and Vista but also Linux, Mac OS, etc. People with slow computers may have some trouble on getting it to work well, but in general it allows an enjoyable playing experience under any machine from ''circa'' 2002 on provided it is properly configured (you can find advice and sample setups on that on the [[DOSBox]] article). Anyway, once you settle for a method of running the game, starting it is straightforward - just run SETUP.EXE once so you can switch between Sound Blaster and PC Speaker sound if you wish and then run the executable - most likely one of the patched executables that bypass the [[Copy protection system|"security system"]], the actual path is likely provided in a readme or on the site from where you got the game.

Bonzai Joe

2010-02-16T10:42:20Z

Mingva:

Danish racer (debuted in 2000), one of the greatest Stunts racers ever. He was the champion of [[ZakStunts]] 2002, [[UnskilledStunts]] 2003, [[ACT]] 2003, the 2nd [[IMSA Cup]], [[Kalpen Competition|Kalpen]] 2006, [[ISM]] 2008 and [[USL]] 2008. He's also famous for his brilliant live racing skills proved at [[World Stunts Meeting|WSM]] events. He was the host of [[World Stunts Meeting|WSM]] 2005 in Århus.

== Bonzai Joe's wish ==

Bonzai Joe would like someone else to fill out his biography, because it's too hard for himself to see what he is in the Stunts community (this doesn't mean he's not going to edit it, though :D)

Game versions

2010-02-16T10:36:59Z

Mingva: /* FM Towns version */

The game named Stunts is a creation of [[Distinctive Software]] studio, authors of Test Drive and Test Drive 2 before. A number of different versions of the game were published and are still circulating. 

== PC versions ==
*[[Brøderbund]] versions (referred to as BB versions) : 
** [[Stunts 1.0]] [[Chronology|(05 Oct. 1990)]] 
** [[Stunts 1.1]] [[Chronology|(12 Feb. 1991)]]
 
*[[Mindscape]] versions (referred to as MS versions) : 
** [[4D Sports Driving 1.1]] [[Chronology|(13 Dec. 1990)]] 
** [[4D Sports Driving 1.1]] [[Chronology|(25 Feb. 1991)]]
 
There are several gameplay differences between these versions; the principal ones are summarized below:
* Crashes when landing from jumps happen very often in BB 1.0 and MS 1.1 (1990 one), as the maximum angle allowed for hitting the ground without crashing was much smaller.
* Unlike on the various 1.1 versions, with BB 1.1 it is generally not possible to gain speed when landing from jumps - as you hit the ground, the horizontal velocity of the car will remain unchanged. That makes an enormous difference in car behaviour, specially for the slow cars, and also means it becomes virtually impossible to reach [[powergear]] with [[Ferrari]] and [[Corvette]].
* Some track elements characteristics also change. For instance, tunnel roofs are completely penetrable in BB 1.0, and while it is possible to land on them with MS 1.1 versions, you will often be spared from a crash when hitting them from below.
* There are also minor performance and handling differences. Overall, cars are slowest in BB 1.0 and fastest in BB 1.1.
All these differences cause replays performed with different game versions incompatible regardless of the tracks being exchangeable, as the game engine will process the input stored in the replay file differently for each version. 
 
The most used version in competitions nowadays is Stunts BB 1.1. At the dawn of Stunts competitions (1998-2000), however, it was Stunts BB 1.0 that was most popular. When the user share of Stunts BB 1.1 began to grow, a cheated car named [[4D Contest Car|Contest Car]] was created by [[Lukas Loehrer]] to allow Stunts 1.0 users be as fast as 1.1 users, because [[Porsche March Indy|Indy]] car is slightly faster in BB/MS 1.1 versions than in BB 1.0 version. 
 
According to the countries, Mindscape or Broderbund had the contract for selling the game. In USA, Germany and Eastern Europe the publisher was Broderbund; in France, U.K. and Belgium it was Mindscape. Overall, Broderbund versions are much more well known worldwide.

== Amiga version ==

It seems that only publisher for [[Amiga]] was [[Mindscape]]; therefore, the game was published under the name 4D Sports Driving. 
Only one version was available : it was version was 1.2, converted to Amiga from PC version. 
This version has less [[Bugs|bugs]] than PC versions.
* [[4D Sports Driving 1.2]] [[Chronology|(1992-01-10)]]
 

== FM Towns version ==

Stunts was also adapted to [[FM Towns]] computers. [[image:fm_towns_title_screen.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Title screen of FM Towns version 1.0]] 

FM Towns/Marty computers were i386 CPU-based computers NOT compatible with classic IBM-compatible PCs, made by Fujitsu (FM meaning Fujitsu Micro) and sold only in Japan. A console FM Towns, compatible with FM Towns/Marty computers, was also created. 
* [[4D Driving 1.0]] [[Chronology|(1993-01-18)]]
 

The editor for this version was [[Electronic Arts]] (E.A.) - Victor, as [[Distinctive Software]] has been bought by E.A. in [[Chronology|1991]] to become E.A. Canada. 
This version was also converted from PC, and with less [[Bugs|bugs]] than PC versions. 

As name "Stunts" was property of [[Brøderbund]] and "4D Sports" name was property of [[Mindscape]], the game was released as "4D Driving" (to remember 4D Sports - Driving name that was already known in Japan due to Amiga version of the game).

== PC-9801 version ==
[[image:Pc98_title_screen.png|200px|right|thumb|Title screen of PC-9801 version 1.0]]
Another Japanese port was made for the NEC [[PC-9801]]. It was produced by the same team as the FM Towns version and the two ports shared graphics and new opponents. Due to hardware limitations this version had fewer colors and the music were synthesized. Otherwise, it is quite similar to the FM Towns version.

== Other versions ==

[[Kevin Pickell]] mentioned, in an [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Stunts_(video_game)&diff=224504789&oldid=223443733 Wikipedia edit] of the Stunts article, that a Sega Genesis (AKA Mega Drive) version was planned and realized, but the port never made it to the stores as it was not possible to make it work on an acceptable frame rate.

Stunts

2010-02-16T10:34:38Z

Mingva:

'''Stunts''' is a racing game from the year 1990. The game was programmed by [[Distinctive Software|DSI]] and published by [[Brøderbund]] in [[Game versions|versions]] 1.0 and 1.1 for PC. At the same time, [[Mindscape]] released the game under the name '''[[4D Sports Driving]]''', in an alternate version 1.1 for PC and 1.2 for the [[Amiga]]. A final Japan-only release, labelled ''4D Driving 1.0'', would later be made for [[FM Towns]] and [[PC-9801]] systems. The game had fully-3D polygonal graphics, which were stunning and revolutionary at that time. The influence from the predecessor [[Test Drive]] (also developed by [[DSI]]) was easy to spot because of the similar graphics and game structure.

==The game==

On a big square area defined and surrounded by a fence you can race on a track (or off the track) in different [[:Category:Cars|cars]], with either automatic or manual transmission. You can either race against the clock or choose between six different [[Opponents|opponents]]. The goal is to go from start to finish as quickly as possible. A great thing about this game is that you do not have to race only the racing tracks that come with it: there is a built-in [[In-game editor|track editor]] that allows you to design your own tracks with different track parts in a very simple way. The game is called ''Stunts'' because of special track parts such as loops, jumps (over tall buildings!), slalom roads and corkscrews. You can save every race you drive as a so-called [[Replay|"replay"]], and then watch them again and again afterwards from several different perspectives.

==Stunts today==

Although the game obviously is more than 10 years old it is still greatly loved all over the world. Already in the middle of the nineties the first websites with information and downloads on Stunts were created. Close to the end of the 90’s, the game was first declared abandonware and then finally declared freeware by the game developers themselves, allowing many people to rediscover it. The game spread quickly over the internet because the game size is less than 1MB when zipped, an important consideration back then.
When the first online [[:Category:Competitions|competitions]] (in which the competition master would receive race replays on specific tracks per email) started, the game began - considering its age - to boom. Up to this day, as the game approaches twenty years of existence, there is a solid worldwide Stunts [[:Category:Community|community]]. Several competitions are active right now, and there are tens of [[Stunts websites]], a very lively [[Stunts Forum]]. Even [[World Stunts Meeting]]s became a reality, with three editions having been held as of now.

==Running the game==

Back in the early nineties, Stunts was made to be runnable on a wide assortment of computers - even the lowly XT's were fair game! Nowadays, players often face the opposite problem of making an old game run under modern hardware/software, and Stunts is no exception. Purists will of course prefer playing on their legacy 386/486 machines, or at least from an actual DOS OS using a bootdisk, but that option gets more and more inconvenient as the years go by. Old Windows 95 and 98 systems have access to MS-DOS, but XP and above have poor DOS emulation for our purposes, leading to lack of sound, slowdowns and other glitches. Fortunately, there is an alternate approach thanks to [[DOSBox]], the famous DOS emulator. It allows Stunts to run virtually flawlessly under not only XP and Vista but also Linux, Mac OS, etc. People with slow computers may have some trouble on getting it to work well, but in general it allows an enjoyable playing experience under any machine from ''circa'' 2002 on provided it is properly configured (you can find advice and sample setups on that on the [[DOSBox]] article). Anyway, once you settle for a method of running the game, starting it is straightforward - just run SETUP.EXE once so you can switch between Sound Blaster and PC Speaker sound if you wish and then run the executable - most likely one of the patched executables that bypass the [[Copy protection system|"security system"]], the actual path is likely provided in a readme or on the site from where you got the game.

ZakStunts

2010-02-16T10:31:22Z

Mingva: /* Racers */

Long name: [[Zak McKracken]]'s Stunts Competition, or [[Zak McKracken|Zak]]'s Stunts Competition. An online competition running continuously since March 2001, now in its 8th season holds the title of the longest running competition.
It was also the first competition which required racers to drive different cars each month, and also the first one to implement a fully automatic php based replay sending form and scoreboard system. Although there were competitions with higher number of participants, ZakStunts is often considered as the most influential competition of the online Stunts community.

== History of ZakStunts ==

===2001===

[[image:Zshist_1.jpg|200px|right|thumb|ZakStunts site ''circa'' 2001...]] The first season only started in March, and only had 9 tracks, as one track, during the summer lasted for two months. The original concept included the [[Opponents]] commenting the sent replays. Competitors mainly arrived from the biggest and best of the time - the [[Kalpen Competition]], and achieved 10 racers/month at most.

The winner of the season was [[Roy Wiegerinck]], with [[Ben Snel]] and manager [[Zak McKracken]] finishing close.
{{-}}

===2002===

[[image:Zshist_3.jpg|200px|left|thumb|2002...]] The second season was the first full-length season of ZakStunts. As the Kalpen competition closed and others not so popular, ZakStunts took the reputation of the biggest and most prestigious competition on the web. This season [[Teams]] were introduced, and racers started to cooperate with each other, or in some strange cases with themselves, using [[Ghosts]]. Racer number reached an incredible 20/month, and the number of replays sent started to get unbearable for the manager. Also ZakStunts didn't only host a competition, but served as an abandonware site too, offering various racing games for download - so raising the number of the site visitors and the racers.

During the summer months, three so called "Special" tracks were presented, with their averaged result counting as one competition track. These tracks required [[Cheated cars]] or [[Special rules]] to finish, and have shown the potential of some newcomers. From October a new feature, [[LTB|Leading Time Bonus]], was introduced as opposite to a negative effect of [[Time hiding]].

The winner of the season was expert driver [[Bonzai Joe]], while a newbie, joined only in April, named [[Alan Rotoi]], aka. 'The Dog' came second, and the former champion, [[Roy Wiegerinck]] only finished third.

===2003===

[[image:Zshist_4.jpg|200px|right|thumb|2003...]] The third season gave a BIG twist to ZakStunts. Introduced a completely insane point system, and the [[Dual League]], where the top 10 drivers formed the Pro league, and the others the Amateur league, Relegations/place changes on the last/first three places took place each month, Pro/Amateur drivers raced the same tracks.
Of course in order to handle this excessive amount of activity and replays, a semi-automatized PHP system was created and installed by [[Zak McKracken]], where racers could send the replays online, with the help of a web form, and so their times immediately appeared on the [[Scoreboard]]. ZakStunts also stopped to work as an abandonware site, as the required number of racers seemed to be reached (around 20/month)

In this season, the competition got really fierce and hard, and a previously unknown amount of teamwork was shown by the teams. The community life was also flourishing, with the forum running and night-long chats taking place in the IRC chatroom.

Apart from all this chaos, a secondary competition (called [[ACT]]) was also hosted, with tracks designed each month by the winner of The 2002 [[Track Design Contest]] (TDC), [[Akoss Poo]]. We can conclude, that 2003 was perhaps the busiest season of ZakStunts.

Winner of the season was frenchman [[Alain]] from the dominating team [[Orion]], former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] came second, and the third place on the podium was reached by [[Akoss Poo]].

===2004===

[[image:Zshist_5.jpg|200px|left|thumb|... and 2004.]]In its fourth season ZakStunts tried to return to a simpler form. [[Dual League]] and secondary competition were dropped, and the point system was also simplified. In order to restrict heavy teamwork, the maximum number of team members was reduced to 4. Another improvement was the [[TDB]] rule, which similar to the 107% rule in Formula One, gave one bonus point to the drivers close to the leader.

Racer number dropped to an average of 15/month, and the site visitor number to its half. Still, community life was going on, and in August the first [[WSM|World Stunts Meeting]] took place in Budapest.

With team [[Orion]] falling apart, new top drivers appeared. Thanks to [[Alan Rotoi]] a very strong South-American Stunts scene evolved, and the better racers started to appear on ZakStunts too. One of them became champion: [[Gutix]]. In a hard battle, [[Akoss Poo]] came second, and former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] third.

===2005===

In 2005, the rules were more simplified, and the original, simple linear point system was reintroduced with the aid of the successful [[LTB]] The goal of ZakStunts was no more gathering new racers, but to present a demanding competition for the top dogs. Still, the number of participants was a huge surprise, surpassing 30 racers on some tracks. Racers who would have got zero points received fraction points, so a ranking still could be made.

The community became more compact, but also more active, altough many former regulars have left, there were still 15 racers, who raced on all, or almost all the tracks. We also had the unforgettable second [[WSM]] in Denmark.

Team race was dominated by the Argentinian-Brazilian team created by [[Alan Rotoi]]: [[Meganium Aces High]]. Alan only stayed in the background, managing his students, like former champion [[Gutix]], and the new champion, who raced like thunder, but never talked: [[Ayrton]]. Former champion [[Alain]] made a successful comeback, and finished second, while the third was the highly evolving Hungarian: [[CTG]]

===2006===

This year not much has changed. The system stayed the same - as it was considered successful, only the first 15 racers received points, not the top twelve. The overall racer number decreased a lot, but there was still a hard core, with 15 racers there, almost each month. Another meeting took place, again in Budapest, perhaps a bit more quiet than the previous ones, but we greeted each other as good old friends, and parted as even better ones :)

This season was the battle of the teams. [[Meganium Aces High]], [[Cork's Crew]] and [[Orion]] all battled for the Team Champion title, but finally the reborn Orion won beating "Oldies" Cork's and "Dog team" Meganium.

Nobody managed to win the ZakStunts twice until 2008 - and suprisingly this year again a newbie won the battle: [[Renato Biker]] from Brazil, under the guidance of former champion [[Alain]]. [[CTG]] made another step of improvement, and arrived second, while the best live racer [[Bonzai Joe]] came third.

At the end of the season, manager [[Zak McKracken]] started to prepare for his state exam and so started lose his motivation, racer number and community activity dropped significantly. Something had to change.

===2007===

This year was a major turnaround again. As there were many successful and actively managed competitions running beside ZakStunts, something exceptional had to be offered. The idea was to have special rules each month, similar to the ones used on the summer bonus tracks of 2002.

Altough some of the rules turned out to be quite intresting and funny, racer number and activity dropped and dropped , barely reaching 10/month, and the manager's motivation sunk with it. Still, the decreased number of racers didn't mean the drop of the competition value, races were still hard as a rock.

Earlier ZakStunts hosted some guest track designers, but during the summertime, track design was completely handed over to the always fresh, active (and horny :)) [[Krys TOFF]]. A competition without a manager is not a competition - even if it runs by itself. During the summer a season shortening to 9 tracks was announced, and after the 8th track of the season (and the 78th of ZakStunts), when [[CTG]] being the new champion was assured - the competition paused for an indefinite period.

The break did good to the manager :) He was thinking a lot, and eventually found out, that he can't live without his competition. After several new ideas born and buried, the concept of the 2008 season was announced, and the last track of the current season presented: no [[Special rules]], and a well-known track: [[Default]].

===2008===

2008 was the rebirth of ZakStunts. The manager admitted that the concept of the special rules was a failure, but as many of the other current successful competitions announced planned closure, there was a need for ZakStunts to go on, and let Stunts live forward.

The new concept of 2008 can be best defined as "the freedom of choice". Everyone was allowed drive with his chosen car and the achieved times are multiplied with pre-set bonus percentages based on car tests. This way everyone can bring out the best of his talent, using the most favorite or most suitable car for the track.

After a few minor problems the concept seemed to work fine. Some driver criticized the new concept as it demands more time from the racers and makes the creation of race statistics really hard, but the positive results were clear to see: more racers and more replays sent.

The main problem of the new car bonus percentage system was the problem of the ever-growing bonuses, which was temporarily solved with bonus adjustments throughout the season. However with the new rule set of the 2009 season this problem seems to be resolved.

The level of the 2008 competition was clearly above the 2007 level, approaching previously seen lower-activity seasons, such as 2006 and 2004.

The season was special in the aspect of winner. One racer could do what others could not done before: [[Ayrton]] won the ZakStunts title for the second time, by winning all the tracks throughout the month. Racers of the newer generations, [[Duplode]] and [[Mark L. Rivers]] came second and third.

===2009===
The 2009 brought only minor changes and corrections to the 2008 rules. As the community got stronger, the team championship was also restarted after its one-year break. Several newbies appeared in the first races. Hopefully this gives a further boost to the community this year.

'''UnskilledStunts''' is a competition managed by [[CTG]]. Started in 2003, it grew in status over the years to eventually being regarded as the second biggest full-season contest, after [[ZakStunts]]. After six complete seasons, the contest was temporarily closed by its manager in June 2009. Seventh edition is expected for January 2010.

KHR and JTK's World of Stunts Driving

2010-02-16T10:26:42Z

Mingva:

'''KHR and JTK's World of Stunts Driving''' is a Stunts related website online since 1998. It was developed in a time when the Stunts community communicated via e-mailinglist and at a real-life-stunts related forum homepage. You could download the Stunts [[Game_versions|versions]] BB 1.0, BB 1.1 and MS 1.0 from there.
The most active Stunts contest at that time was the one hosted by [[Lukas Loehrer]]. When he ended his [[Stunts Grand Prix|contest]] in 1998 he left a vacuum in the virtual way of Stunts racing, so the designers of ''KHR and JTK's World of Stunts Driving'', [[KHR]] and [[JTK]] soon decided to start the [[Kalpen Competition]] at their page which soon grew and became quite famous.

Nowadays the site is still there, sometimes some contest activities happen and still many informations are to be seen. Its design is as ancient as the end-nineties style is today.

Worldranklist

2010-02-16T10:17:53Z

Mingva:

Worldranklist (also called as WRL) is a unique pointsystem for rating drivers of the different championships based on separate ranking in each races and time results. Several attempts of rating appeared in Stunts history, but the two most important and regularly updated ranklists are [[CTG]]'s WRL (since 2003, based on [[ZakStunts|ZSC]], [[UnskilledStunts|USC]], [[IRC]] and later [[Stunts Drivers Races|SDR]] results) and the [[Stunts World Ranking]] made by [[Mark L. Rivers]] (since 2006, using all competition's rankings).

KHR and JTK's World of Stunts Driving

ZakStunts

2009-09-10T17:44:37Z

Mingva: /* 2002 */

Long name: [[Zak McKracken]]'s Stunts Competition, or [[Zak McKracken|Zak]]'s Stunts Competition. An online competition running continuously since March 2001, now in its 8th season holds the title of the longest running competition.
It was also the first competition which required racers to drive different cars each month, and also the first one to implement a fully automatic php based replay sending form and scoreboard system. Although there were competitions with higher number of participants, ZakStunts is often considered as the most influential competition of the online Stunts community.

== History of ZakStunts ==

===2001===

[[image:Zshist_1.jpg|200px|right|thumb|ZakStunts site ''circa'' 2001...]] The first season only started in March, and only had 9 tracks, as one track, during the summer lasted for two months. The original concept included the [[Opponents]] commenting the sent replays. Competitors mainly arrived from the biggest and best of the time - the [[Kalpen Competition]], and achieved 10 racers/month at most.

The winner of the season was [[Roy Wiegerinck]], with [[Ben Snel]] and manager [[Zak McKracken]] finishing close.
{{-}}

===2002===

[[image:Zshist_3.jpg|200px|left|thumb|2002...]] The second season was the first full-length season of ZakStunts. As the Kalpen competition closed and others not so popular, ZakStunts took the reputation of the biggest and most prestigious competition on the web. This season [[Teams]] were introduced, and racers started to cooperate with each other, or in some strange cases with themselves, using [[Ghosts]]. Racer number reached an incredible 20/month, and the number of replays sent started to get unbearable for the manager. Also ZakStunts didn't only host a competition, but served as an abandonware site too, offering various racing games for download - so raising the number of the site visitors and the racers.

During the summer months, three so called "Special" tracks were presented, with their averaged result counting as one competition track. These tracks required [[Cheated cars]] or [[Special rules]] to finish, and have shown the potential of some newcomers. From October a new feature, [[LTB|Leading Time Bonus]], was introduced as opposite to a negative effect of [[Time hiding]].

The winner of the season was expert driver [[Bonzai Joe]], while a newbie, joined only in April, named [[Alan Rotoi]], aka. 'The Dog' came second, and the former champion, [[Roy Wiegerinck]] only finished third.

===2003===

[[image:Zshist_4.jpg|200px|right|thumb|2003...]] The third season gave a BIG twist to ZakStunts. Introduced a completely insane point system, and the [[Dual League]], where the top 10 drivers formed the Pro league, and the others the Amateur league, Relegations/place changes on the last/first three places took place each month, Pro/Amateur drivers raced the same tracks.
Of course in order to handle this excessive amount of activity and replays, a semi-automatized PHP system was created and installed by [[Zak McKracken]], where racers could send the replays online, with the help of a web form, and so their times immediately appeared on the [[Scoreboard]]. ZakStunts also stopped to work as an abandonware site, as the required number of racers seemed to be reached (around 20/month)

In this season, the competition got really fierce and hard, and a previously unknown amount of teamwork was shown by the teams. The community life was also flourishing, with the forum running and night-long chats taking place in the IRC chatroom.

Apart from all this chaos, a secondary competition (called [[ACT]]) was also hosted, with tracks designed each month by the winner of The 2002 [[Track Design Contest]] (TDC), [[Akoss Poo]]. We can conclude, that 2003 was perhaps the busiest season of ZakStunts.

Winner of the season was frenchman [[Alain]] from the dominating team [[Orion]], former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] came second, and the third place on the podium was reached by [[Akoss Poo]].

===2004===

[[image:Zshist_5.jpg|200px|left|thumb|... and 2004.]]In its fourth season ZakStunts tried to return to a simpler form. [[Dual League]] and secondary competition were dropped, and the point system was also simplified. In order to restrict heavy teamwork, the maximum number of team members was reduced to 4. Another improvement was the [[TDB]] rule, which similar to the 107% rule in Formula One, gave one bonus point to the drivers close to the leader.

Racer number dropped to an average of 15/month, and the site visitor number to its half. Still, community life was going on, and in August the first [[WSM|World Stunts Meeting]] took place in Budapest.

With team [[Orion]] falling apart, new top drivers appeared. Thanks to [[Alan Rotoi]] a very strong South-American Stunts scene evolved, and the better racers started to appear on ZakStunts too. One of them became champion: [[Gutix]]. In a hard battle, [[Akoss Poo]] came second, and former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] third.

===2005===

In 2005, the rules were more simplified, and the original, simple linear point system was reintroduced with the aid of the successful [[LTB]] The goal of ZakStunts was no more gathering new racers, but to present a demanding competition for the top dogs. Still, the number of participants was a huge surprise, surpassing 30 racers on some tracks. Racers who would have got zero points received fraction points, so a ranking still could be made.

The community became more compact, but also more active, altough many former regulars have left, there were still 15 racers, who raced on all, or almost all the tracks. We also had the unforgettable second [[WSM]] in Denmark.

Team race was dominated by the Argentinian-Brazilian team created by [[Alan Rotoi]]: [[Meganium Aces High]]. Alan only stayed in the background, managing his students, like former champion [[Guitx]], and the new champion, who raced like thunder, but never talked: [[Ayrton]]. Former champion [[Alain]] made a successful comeback, and finished second, while the third was the highly evolving Hungarian: [[CTG]]

===2006===

This year not much has changed. The system stayed the same - as it was considered successful, only the first 15 racers received points, not the top twelve. The overall racer number decreased a lot, but there was still a hard core, with 15 racers there, almost each month. Another meeting took place, again in Budapest, perhaps a bit more quiet than the previous ones, but we greeted each other as good old friends, and parted as even better ones :)

This season was the battle of the teams. [[Meganium Aces High]], [[Cork's Crew]] and [[Orion]] all battled for the Team Champion title, but finally the reborn Orion won beating "Oldies" Cork's and "Dog team" Meganium.

Nobody managed to win the ZakStunts twice until 2008 - and suprisingly this year again a newbie won the battle: [[Renato Biker]] from Brazil, under the guidance of former champion [[Alain]]. [[CTG]] made another step of improvement, and arrived second, while the best live racer [[Bonzai Joe]] came third.

At the end of the season, manager [[Zak McKracken]] started to prepare for his state exam and so started lose his motivation, racer number and community activity dropped significantly. Something had to change.

===2007===

This year was a major turnaround again. As there were many successful and actively managed competitions running beside ZakStunts, something exceptional had to be offered. The idea was to have special rules each month, similar to the ones used on the summer bonus tracks of 2002.

Altough some of the rules turned out to be quite intresting and funny, racer number and activity dropped and dropped , barely reaching 10/month, and the manager's motivation sunk with it. Still, the decreased number of racers didn't mean the drop of the competition value, races were still hard as a rock.

Earlier ZakStunts hosted some guest track designers, but during the summertime, track design was completely handed over to the always fresh, active (and horny :)) [[Krys TOFF]]. A competition without a manager is not a competition - even if it runs by itself. During the summer a season shortening to 9 tracks was announced, and after the 8th track of the season (and the 78th of ZakStunts), when [[CTG]] being the new champion was assured - the competition paused for an indefinite period.

The break did good to the manager :) He was thinking a lot, and eventually found out, that he can't live without his competition. After several new ideas born and buried, the concept of the 2008 season was announced, and the last track of the current season presented: no [[Special rules]], and a well-known track: [[Default]].

===2008===

2008 was the rebirth of ZakStunts. The manager admitted that the concept of the special rules was a failure, but as many of the other current successful competitions announced planned closure, there was a need for ZakStunts to go on, and let Stunts live forward.

The new concept of 2008 can be best defined as "the freedom of choice". Everyone was allowed drive with his chosen car and the achieved times are multiplied with pre-set bonus percentages based on car tests. This way everyone can bring out the best of his talent, using the most favorite or most suitable car for the track.

After a few minor problems the concept seemed to work fine. Some driver criticized the new concept as it demands more time from the racers and makes the creation of race statistics really hard, but the positive results were clear to see: more racers and more replays sent.

The main problem of the new car bonus percentage system was the problem of the ever-growing bonuses, which was temporarily solved with bonus adjustments throughout the season. However with the new rule set of the 2009 season this problem seems to be resolved.

The level of the 2008 competition was clearly above the 2007 level, approaching previously seen lower-activity seasons, such as 2006 and 2004.

The season was special in the aspect of winner. One racer could do what others could not done before: [[Ayrton]] won the ZakStunts title for the second time, by winning all the tracks throughout the month. Racers of the newer generations, [[Duplode]] and [[Mark L. Rivers]] came second and third.

===2009===
The 2009 brought only minor changes and corrections to the 2008 rules. As the community got stronger, the team championship was also restarted after its one-year break. Several newbies appeared in the first races. Hopefully this gives a further boost to the community this year.

ZakStunts

2009-09-10T17:39:59Z

Mingva: /* 2002 */

Long name: [[Zak McKracken]]'s Stunts Competition, or [[Zak McKracken|Zak]]'s Stunts Competition. An online competition running continuously since March 2001, now in its 8th season holds the title of the longest running competition.
It was also the first competition which required racers to drive different cars each month, and also the first one to implement a fully automatic php based replay sending form and scoreboard system. Although there were competitions with higher number of participants, ZakStunts is often considered as the most influential competition of the online Stunts community.

== History of ZakStunts ==

===2001===

[[image:Zshist_1.jpg|200px|right|thumb|ZakStunts site ''circa'' 2001...]] The first season only started in March, and only had 9 tracks, as one track, during the summer lasted for two months. The original concept included the [[Opponents]] commenting the sent replays. Competitors mainly arrived from the biggest and best of the time - the [[Kalpen Competition]], and achieved 10 racers/month at most.

The winner of the season was [[Roy Wiegerinck]], with [[Ben Snel]] and manager [[Zak McKracken]] finishing close.
{{-}}

===2002===

[[image:Zshist_3.jpg|200px|left|thumb|2002...]] The second season was the first full-length season of ZakStunts. As the Kalpen competition closed and others not so popular, ZakStunts took the reputation of the biggest and most prestigious competition on the web. This season [[Teams]] were introduced, and racers started to cooperate with each other, or in some strange cases with themselves, using [[Ghosts]]. Racer number reached an incredible 20/month, and the number of replays sent started to get unbearable for the manager. From October a new feature, [[LTB|Leading Time Bonus]], was introduced as opposite to a negative effect of [[Time hiding]]. Also ZakStunts didn't only host a competition, but served as an abandonware site too, offering various racing games for download - so raising the number of the site visitors and the racers.

During the summer months, three so called "Special" tracks were presented, with their averaged result counting as one competition track. These tracks required [[Cheated cars]] or [[Special rules]] to finish, and have shown the potential of some newcomers.

The winner of the season was expert driver [[Bonzai Joe]], while a newbie, joined only in April, named [[Alan Rotoi]], aka. 'The Dog' came second, and the former champion, [[Roy Wiegerinck]] only finished third.

===2003===

[[image:Zshist_4.jpg|200px|right|thumb|2003...]] The third season gave a BIG twist to ZakStunts. Introduced a completely insane point system, and the [[Dual League]], where the top 10 drivers formed the Pro league, and the others the Amateur league, Relegations/place changes on the last/first three places took place each month, Pro/Amateur drivers raced the same tracks.
Of course in order to handle this excessive amount of activity and replays, a semi-automatized PHP system was created and installed by [[Zak McKracken]], where racers could send the replays online, with the help of a web form, and so their times immediately appeared on the [[Scoreboard]]. ZakStunts also stopped to work as an abandonware site, as the required number of racers seemed to be reached (around 20/month)

In this season, the competition got really fierce and hard, and a previously unknown amount of teamwork was shown by the teams. The community life was also flourishing, with the forum running and night-long chats taking place in the IRC chatroom.

Apart from all this chaos, a secondary competition (called [[ACT]]) was also hosted, with tracks designed each month by the winner of The 2002 [[Track Design Contest]] (TDC), [[Akoss Poo]]. We can conclude, that 2003 was perhaps the busiest season of ZakStunts.

Winner of the season was frenchman [[Alain]] from the dominating team [[Orion]], former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] came second, and the third place on the podium was reached by [[Akoss Poo]].

===2004===

[[image:Zshist_5.jpg|200px|left|thumb|... and 2004.]]In its fourth season ZakStunts tried to return to a simpler form. [[Dual League]] and secondary competition were dropped, and the point system was also simplified. In order to restrict heavy teamwork, the maximum number of team members was reduced to 4. Another improvement was the [[TDB]] rule, which similar to the 107% rule in Formula One, gave one bonus point to the drivers close to the leader.

Racer number dropped to an average of 15/month, and the site visitor number to its half. Still, community life was going on, and in August the first [[WSM|World Stunts Meeting]] took place in Budapest.

With team [[Orion]] falling apart, new top drivers appeared. Thanks to [[Alan Rotoi]] a very strong South-American Stunts scene evolved, and the better racers started to appear on ZakStunts too. One of them became champion: [[Gutix]]. In a hard battle, [[Akoss Poo]] came second, and former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] third.

===2005===

In 2005, the rules were more simplified, and the original, simple linear point system was reintroduced with the aid of the successful [[LTB]] The goal of ZakStunts was no more gathering new racers, but to present a demanding competition for the top dogs. Still, the number of participants was a huge surprise, surpassing 30 racers on some tracks. Racers who would have got zero points received fraction points, so a ranking still could be made.

The community became more compact, but also more active, altough many former regulars have left, there were still 15 racers, who raced on all, or almost all the tracks. We also had the unforgettable second [[WSM]] in Denmark.

Team race was dominated by the Argentinian-Brazilian team created by [[Alan Rotoi]]: [[Meganium Aces High]]. Alan only stayed in the background, managing his students, like former champion [[Guitx]], and the new champion, who raced like thunder, but never talked: [[Ayrton]]. Former champion [[Alain]] made a successful comeback, and finished second, while the third was the highly evolving Hungarian: [[CTG]]

===2006===

This year not much has changed. The system stayed the same - as it was considered successful, only the first 15 racers received points, not the top twelve. The overall racer number decreased a lot, but there was still a hard core, with 15 racers there, almost each month. Another meeting took place, again in Budapest, perhaps a bit more quiet than the previous ones, but we greeted each other as good old friends, and parted as even better ones :)

This season was the battle of the teams. [[Meganium Aces High]], [[Cork's Crew]] and [[Orion]] all battled for the Team Champion title, but finally the reborn Orion won beating "Oldies" Cork's and "Dog team" Meganium.

Nobody managed to win the ZakStunts twice until 2008 - and suprisingly this year again a newbie won the battle: [[Renato Biker]] from Brazil, under the guidance of former champion [[Alain]]. [[CTG]] made another step of improvement, and arrived second, while the best live racer [[Bonzai Joe]] came third.

At the end of the season, manager [[Zak McKracken]] started to prepare for his state exam and so started lose his motivation, racer number and community activity dropped significantly. Something had to change.

===2007===

This year was a major turnaround again. As there were many successful and actively managed competitions running beside ZakStunts, something exceptional had to be offered. The idea was to have special rules each month, similar to the ones used on the summer bonus tracks of 2002.

Altough some of the rules turned out to be quite intresting and funny, racer number and activity dropped and dropped , barely reaching 10/month, and the manager's motivation sunk with it. Still, the decreased number of racers didn't mean the drop of the competition value, races were still hard as a rock.

Earlier ZakStunts hosted some guest track designers, but during the summertime, track design was completely handed over to the always fresh, active (and horny :)) [[Krys TOFF]]. A competition without a manager is not a competition - even if it runs by itself. During the summer a season shortening to 9 tracks was announced, and after the 8th track of the season (and the 78th of ZakStunts), when [[CTG]] being the new champion was assured - the competition paused for an indefinite period.

The break did good to the manager :) He was thinking a lot, and eventually found out, that he can't live without his competition. After several new ideas born and buried, the concept of the 2008 season was announced, and the last track of the current season presented: no [[Special rules]], and a well-known track: [[Default]].

===2008===

2008 was the rebirth of ZakStunts. The manager admitted that the concept of the special rules was a failure, but as many of the other current successful competitions announced planned closure, there was a need for ZakStunts to go on, and let Stunts live forward.

The new concept of 2008 can be best defined as "the freedom of choice". Everyone was allowed drive with his chosen car and the achieved times are multiplied with pre-set bonus percentages based on car tests. This way everyone can bring out the best of his talent, using the most favorite or most suitable car for the track.

After a few minor problems the concept seemed to work fine. Some driver criticized the new concept as it demands more time from the racers and makes the creation of race statistics really hard, but the positive results were clear to see: more racers and more replays sent.

The main problem of the new car bonus percentage system was the problem of the ever-growing bonuses, which was temporarily solved with bonus adjustments throughout the season. However with the new rule set of the 2009 season this problem seems to be resolved.

The level of the 2008 competition was clearly above the 2007 level, approaching previously seen lower-activity seasons, such as 2006 and 2004.

The season was special in the aspect of winner. One racer could do what others could not done before: [[Ayrton]] won the ZakStunts title for the second time, by winning all the tracks throughout the month. Racers of the newer generations, [[Duplode]] and [[Mark L. Rivers]] came second and third.

===2009===
The 2009 brought only minor changes and corrections to the 2008 rules. As the community got stronger, the team championship was also restarted after its one-year break. Several newbies appeared in the first races. Hopefully this gives a further boost to the community this year.

Leading Time Bonus

2009-09-10T17:26:55Z

Mingva:

'''Leading Time Bonus''', often shortened to ''LTB'', is a competition rule often implemented in contests with long (three or more weeks) races. Essentially, it consists in rewarding drivers who succeed in staying atop the current race scoreboard for significant amounts of time with extra championship points. The rule was pioneered by [[ZakStunts]] in its 2002 season with the main goal of countering the effects of [[time hiding]], thus making higher activity on the early and intermediate stages of the races. LTB proved to be quite successful in that respect, and so it has been adopted by other competitions ever since.

Over the years, LTB was applied in a number of different ways by contest managers. The classical approach, traditionally used in [[ZakStunts]], is to reward LTB points to the two (or, at times, three) drivers with the largest number of leading hours during the race. In [[UnskilledStunts]], all racers were awarded LTB points on reaching specific threshold values of leading hours. A third approach, seen on [[SDR]] 2007 season and [[ISM]] 2008 edition preliminary stage, was to define weekly checkpoints within a race and give LTB to the first and second placed drivers on each checkpoint.

ZakStunts

2009-09-10T17:20:52Z

Mingva: /* 2004 */

Long name: [[Zak McKracken]]'s Stunts Competition, or [[Zak McKracken|Zak]]'s Stunts Competition. An online competition running continuously since March 2001, now in its 8th season holds the title of the longest running competition.
It was also the first competition which required racers to drive different cars each month, and also the first one to implement a fully automatic php based replay sending form and scoreboard system. Although there were competitions with higher number of participants, ZakStunts is often considered as the most influential competition of the online Stunts community.

== History of ZakStunts ==

===2001===

[[image:Zshist_1.jpg|200px|right|thumb|ZakStunts site ''circa'' 2001...]] The first season only started in March, and only had 9 tracks, as one track, during the summer lasted for two months. The original concept included the [[Opponents]] commenting the sent replays. Competitors mainly arrived from the biggest and best of the time - the [[Kalpen Competition]], and achieved 10 racers/month at most.

The winner of the season was [[Roy Wiegerinck]], with [[Ben Snel]] and manager [[Zak McKracken]] finishing close.
{{-}}

===2002===

[[image:Zshist_3.jpg|200px|left|thumb|2002...]] The second season was the first full-length season of ZakStunts. As the Kalpen competition closed and others not so popular, ZakStunts took the reputation of the biggest and most prestigious competition on the web. This season [[Teams]] were introduced, and racers started to cooperate with each other, or in some strange cases with themselves, using [[Ghosts]]. Racer number reached an incredible 20/month, and the number of replays sent started to get unbearable for the manager. Also ZakStunts didn't only host a competition, but served as an abandonware site too, offering various racing games for download - so raising the number of the site visitors and the racers.

During the summer months, three so called "Special" tracks were presented, with their averaged result counting as one competition track. These tracks required [[Cheated cars]] or [[Special rules]] to finish, and have shown the potential of some newcomers.

The winner of the season was expert driver [[Bonzai Joe]], while a newbie, joined only in April, named [[Alan Rotoi]], aka. 'The Dog' came second, and the former champion, [[Roy Wiegerinck]] only finished third.

===2003===

[[image:Zshist_4.jpg|200px|right|thumb|2003...]] The third season gave a BIG twist to ZakStunts. Introduced a completely insane point system, and the [[Dual League]], where the top 10 drivers formed the Pro league, and the others the Amateur league, Relegations/place changes on the last/first three places took place each month, Pro/Amateur drivers raced the same tracks.
Of course in order to handle this excessive amount of activity and replays, a semi-automatized PHP system was created and installed by [[Zak McKracken]], where racers could send the replays online, with the help of a web form, and so their times immediately appeared on the [[Scoreboard]]. ZakStunts also stopped to work as an abandonware site, as the required number of racers seemed to be reached (around 20/month)

In this season, the competition got really fierce and hard, and a previously unknown amount of teamwork was shown by the teams. The community life was also flourishing, with the forum running and night-long chats taking place in the IRC chatroom.

Apart from all this chaos, a secondary competition (called [[ACT]]) was also hosted, with tracks designed each month by the winner of The 2002 [[Track Design Contest]] (TDC), [[Akoss Poo]]. We can conclude, that 2003 was perhaps the busiest season of ZakStunts.

Winner of the season was frenchman [[Alain]] from the dominating team [[Orion]], former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] came second, and the third place on the podium was reached by [[Akoss Poo]].

===2004===

[[image:Zshist_5.jpg|200px|left|thumb|... and 2004.]]In its fourth season ZakStunts tried to return to a simpler form. [[Dual League]] and secondary competition were dropped, and the point system was also simplified. In order to restrict heavy teamwork, the maximum number of team members was reduced to 4. Another improvement was the [[TDB]] rule, which similar to the 107% rule in Formula One, gave one bonus point to the drivers close to the leader.

Racer number dropped to an average of 15/month, and the site visitor number to its half. Still, community life was going on, and in August the first [[WSM|World Stunts Meeting]] took place in Budapest.

With team [[Orion]] falling apart, new top drivers appeared. Thanks to [[Alan Rotoi]] a very strong South-American Stunts scene evolved, and the better racers started to appear on ZakStunts too. One of them became champion: [[Gutix]]. In a hard battle, [[Akoss Poo]] came second, and former champion [[Bonzai Joe]] third.

===2005===

In 2005, the rules were more simplified, and the original, simple linear point system was reintroduced with the aid of the successful [[LTB]] The goal of ZakStunts was no more gathering new racers, but to present a demanding competition for the top dogs. Still, the number of participants was a huge surprise, surpassing 30 racers on some tracks. Racers who would have got zero points received fraction points, so a ranking still could be made.

The community became more compact, but also more active, altough many former regulars have left, there were still 15 racers, who raced on all, or almost all the tracks. We also had the unforgettable second [[WSM]] in Denmark.

Team race was dominated by the Argentinian-Brazilian team created by [[Alan Rotoi]]: [[Meganium Aces High]]. Alan only stayed in the background, managing his students, like former champion [[Guitx]], and the new champion, who raced like thunder, but never talked: [[Ayrton]]. Former champion [[Alain]] made a successful comeback, and finished second, while the third was the highly evolving Hungarian: [[CTG]]

===2006===

This year not much has changed. The system stayed the same - as it was considered successful, only the first 15 racers received points, not the top twelve. The overall racer number decreased a lot, but there was still a hard core, with 15 racers there, almost each month. Another meeting took place, again in Budapest, perhaps a bit more quiet than the previous ones, but we greeted each other as good old friends, and parted as even better ones :)

This season was the battle of the teams. [[Meganium Aces High]], [[Cork's Crew]] and [[Orion]] all battled for the Team Champion title, but finally the reborn Orion won beating "Oldies" Cork's and "Dog team" Meganium.

Nobody managed to win the ZakStunts twice until 2008 - and suprisingly this year again a newbie won the battle: [[Renato Biker]] from Brazil, under the guidance of former champion [[Alain]]. [[CTG]] made another step of improvement, and arrived second, while the best live racer [[Bonzai Joe]] came third.

At the end of the season, manager [[Zak McKracken]] started to prepare for his state exam and so started lose his motivation, racer number and community activity dropped significantly. Something had to change.

===2007===

This year was a major turnaround again. As there were many successful and actively managed competitions running beside ZakStunts, something exceptional had to be offered. The idea was to have special rules each month, similar to the ones used on the summer bonus tracks of 2002.

Altough some of the rules turned out to be quite intresting and funny, racer number and activity dropped and dropped , barely reaching 10/month, and the manager's motivation sunk with it. Still, the decreased number of racers didn't mean the drop of the competition value, races were still hard as a rock.

Earlier ZakStunts hosted some guest track designers, but during the summertime, track design was completely handed over to the always fresh, active (and horny :)) [[Krys TOFF]]. A competition without a manager is not a competition - even if it runs by itself. During the summer a season shortening to 9 tracks was announced, and after the 8th track of the season (and the 78th of ZakStunts), when [[CTG]] being the new champion was assured - the competition paused for an indefinite period.

The break did good to the manager :) He was thinking a lot, and eventually found out, that he can't live without his competition. After several new ideas born and buried, the concept of the 2008 season was announced, and the last track of the current season presented: no [[Special rules]], and a well-known track: [[Default]].

===2008===

2008 was the rebirth of ZakStunts. The manager admitted that the concept of the special rules was a failure, but as many of the other current successful competitions announced planned closure, there was a need for ZakStunts to go on, and let Stunts live forward.

The new concept of 2008 can be best defined as "the freedom of choice". Everyone was allowed drive with his chosen car and the achieved times are multiplied with pre-set bonus percentages based on car tests. This way everyone can bring out the best of his talent, using the most favorite or most suitable car for the track.

After a few minor problems the concept seemed to work fine. Some driver criticized the new concept as it demands more time from the racers and makes the creation of race statistics really hard, but the positive results were clear to see: more racers and more replays sent.

The main problem of the new car bonus percentage system was the problem of the ever-growing bonuses, which was temporarily solved with bonus adjustments throughout the season. However with the new rule set of the 2009 season this problem seems to be resolved.

The level of the 2008 competition was clearly above the 2007 level, approaching previously seen lower-activity seasons, such as 2006 and 2004.

The season was special in the aspect of winner. One racer could do what others could not done before: [[Ayrton]] won the ZakStunts title for the second time, by winning all the tracks throughout the month. Racers of the newer generations, [[Duplode]] and [[Mark L. Rivers]] came second and third.

===2009===
The 2009 brought only minor changes and corrections to the 2008 rules. As the community got stronger, the team championship was also restarted after its one-year break. Several newbies appeared in the first races. Hopefully this gives a further boost to the community this year.

Mingva

2009-07-01T18:56:23Z

Mingva:

'''Mingva''' is a Lithuanian racer who debuted in 2002, being a member of the [[Golden Generation]]. He formed the original incarnation of the highly successful [[Orion]] team together with [[Alain]]. After the end of the [[ISA]] (International Stunts Association) competition in 2003, he also became the manager of its successor, the [[IRC]] (Indy Racing Cup), one of the key Stunts competitions from that era. Mingva was, additionally, the main responsible for making usage of [[Advanced Replay Handling]], the universal [[RH Hiding]] technique. On track, his best results were [[ZakStunts]] victories on ZCT Plus#2 and ZCT32, where Alain slowed down at the end to let his teammate win.

A highly active community member at first, Mingva gradually faded away from community life, and in 2004 his main contribution to the community was some nasty flamewars with [[Akoss Poo]] and [[CTG]]. During these flamewars, Mingva became part of a well-known rhyme: "Mingva le van fingva", made up by the [[Looping Warriors]], which means ''Somebody farted on Mingva''.

Mingva retired from [[Stunts]] racing at the end of 2004 season, but still made two minor attempts in 2005. However, in June 2009 he would make a striking comeback to both community life and competition under the alias "Paradisio".
