Who made the good-old-racer-page??

About 6 months ago (maybe longer) somebody was hosting a rc5 racer page. I think it was Leblatt. Why did it end and does the person have screenshots available?

Some people are thinking of making something like it for OGR....

Thankx
 
I'm the culprit 😉
The page also has a link to the ObjectPAL script used to generate it. The parts that weren't automated were the inclusion of comments (inserted manually with frontpage) and *mostly* the retrieval of raw history pages from dnet, which took longest.
I guess both would be quite easy in perl or php.

If someone would like to port it, I'd provide the local table formats the script uses, and help with decyphering my fuzzy code.

Mhhh I'm trying to convince myself to start learning php/mysql as a basement for the next years, this seems to be a good learning project. If someone wants to share his experience, we could work on this together.
 
Thankx Osmo and LeBlatt. I'm glad I remembered it was you. Imagine the reactions if I mentioned it was made bij somebody else 😉

Btw, why did you stop updating it? I found (and still find) the idea great!
 
LeBlatt, I take it you still have the link to the raw data pages on DNet. Don't suppose you could pass it over could you?
