This is why I mostly play offline, I only race in very ocasional vintage races (like the one organized last year Daytona '66) or some vintage time attacks, with people that I moreless know and are trustable and fair competitors.Good morning everyone. Today I'm here for a serious reason. Last weekend have started rally and hillclimb championships in Spain communities using Kronos rally cars (that of course, are the very best).
Everything was going well in the first Hillclimb race, Subida a Castrelo do Miño, organized by AFM racing community, until the organizer detected cheating in some cars (4 people from the same team).
Do you remember Alien app? It turns out that a fan of the film saga has developed a 2.0 version called Predator, capable of bypassing the anti-cheat barriers of current CSPs, and allowing the modification of car parameters during the game.
I hate to bring bad news, but I feel obligated to bring this up again, without much intention of starting a debate. Beyond that, I'm informing you so that the other competitors and organizers from the different communities are aware.
Finally, I just want to add that the various friendly communities in southern Europe are joining forces to combat these kinds of practices.
Here I show you some of the symptoms in video form.
Click to see.
With nothing more to add, I hope you have a good day.
Back in 2024 there was an official event for AC made by Hyundai for promoting their new Elantra TCR (a mod made by the official Hyundai company, not Fuzo's Elantra TCR). It was a time attack event in Brands Hatch. Everybody used the exact same car, and setup was quite restricted if I remember well. So some people there the top qualified ones were getting insanely fast times (plus +15s faster than me) and ofc I'm not the most skilled dude and I'm don´t have the best gearset for racing, but this was beyond than normal. It wasn´t just a better setup for the car or better gaming gearset, it had to be something else (cheating). I refuse to believe those times were possible to achieve with that car with that amount of horserpower. They literally transformed a TCR car into a F1 car. Those people very likely cheated with a very similar app and added a ton more of horsepower and grip to the car. I hope they were disqualified, but from that moment I got discouraged to participate in online events. There are a lot of cheaters unfortunately.
