= Alain “il Professore” =
Hi! I’m [[Alain]], also known as [[Alain il Professore]]. I race, write, manage a competition and help organise things around the classic 1990 racer ''[[Stunts (video game)|Stunts]]''. The nickname is a nod to Formula One legend Alain Prost (often called “Il Professore”/“Le Professeur”) and to my fondness for methodical laps, notes, and track study.

== Quick links ==
* My racer profile (external): [https://zak.stunts.hu/ ZakStunts]
* Teams I’ve raced with: [[Orion]], [[Mimas Racing]], [[Average Joes]], [[Hyperion Racing Team]]
* Contests I follow and contribute to: [[ZakStunts]], [[ISA competition]], [[Indy Racing Cup|IRC]], USC, HOTU, [[StuntsLoL]], [[Race for Kicks]], [[Dosreloaded]].
* Pages I’ve written/expanded: [[Ben Snel]], [[Mingva]], [[Argammon]], [[Ruepel]], [[Sylvain Chabert]], [[Mimas Racing]], [[Orion]].
* Nickname project: [[Origins of Stunts racer nicknames]] (Prost / Alan Rotoi / Ben Snel, etc.)

== Racing profile ==
* [[Style:]] clean lines, perfectly replay handling curves to perfection, rhythm and ranking consistency first; strategic use of replay handling; curiosity for how physics quirks and average-speed math work in Stunts.
* [[Strengths:]] long-run pace, reconnaissance replays, team support (car testing, telemetry, strategy notes), documenting track tricks so others can learn.
* [[OWOOT & ARH:]] I enjoy OWOOT challenges and I’m transparent about replay posting, I won the first ever position time bonus, and love sharing my replays with teammates, allowing them and opponents to learn from my driving techniques. See [[OWOOT]] and [[Advanced Replay Handling]] for context.

== Teams ==
; [[Orion]] (2002–2003)
Co-founded the core with [[Mingva]], joined by [[Krys Toff]], [[Leo Ramone]], briefly joined by [[Argammon]] and later by [[Myron]]. Raced throughout the “Golden Generation” era. Team highlights include strong podium streaks and the push toward 2003 titles.

; [[Hyperion]] (2002)
Briefly founded a one member team to protest against ISA/IRC rules and came back to Orion.

; [[Mimas Racing]] (2004)
Two-driver project with [[Mingva]] for the 2004 season on [[ZakStunts]]. See the team page [[Mimas Racing]] and [https://zak.stunts.hu/tracks/ZCT040 ZCT40] for a season highlight.

; [[Orion]] (2005–2006)
Reviving the team project with [[Mingva]], [[vamologocomisso]], and [[Renato Biker]]. Team highlights include again strong podium streaks and the push toward 2006 title.

; [[Average Joes]] (2009)
A brief two races come back with [[Renato Biker]], [[dstien]] and [[Paradisio]] ([[Mingva]]'s alias). Places in two races, ZCT100 respectfully honoring a community pledge, and ZCT101.

; [[Hyperion Racing Team]] (2025)
I founded a new team project with [[Victor Narl]] on august 2025.

== Selected highlights ==
* Strong November 2003 run across multiple series (LOL/USC/IRC) during Orion’s title chase.
* [[ZakStunts]] podiums and teamwork contributions during ZCT31–ZCT32 stretch (late 2003).
* 2004 season with [[Mimas Racing]]; see [https://zak.stunts.hu/tracks/ZCT040 ZCT40 “High Five”] for a memorable result.
