I'm curious where all the crowd sounds came from. I swear I've heard one of those voices before during an actual race am I the only one?

Fun game. Broke 16 after about 10 tries! I keep running out of stamina - how do you draft? I can't see any evidence that getting close helps especially as the penalty for getting too close is so high.
Newbury Park!?! That's gotta be it
Really fun game! It would be cool if somebody with a bigger budget/more time & resources made a sequel where you could control a whole team and take them through a season.

I'm going bald for maximum aerodynamics.
Just now cracked the Top 3 in JV with a 14:56. Next stop: sub-15 in Varsity, mate.
Also, to whomever downvoted my last post…just because you lost interest in the app awhile back, and abandoned it with lackluster times to your name, doesn’t mean you should “feel some typa way” about those continuing to push the app’s boundaries. Only two people have ever run faster than my 14:56.0, and I am far from satisfied.
UPDATE: The Zin Brothers are getting EXTREMELY close at claiming the Top 3 spots in both JV and Varsity…re-setting the bar over and over again.
So, what are your thoughts regarding this “takeover,” assuming you still check the leaderboards?
Decided to re-post and re-pose this question under my registered account after locating my login info. Rojo, you can delete the previous post under “Leo Zin”.

I don’t mean to gloat, of course. I just, slowly and methodically, over the course of a year…completely re-envisioned the app’s limits, and reshaped things.
Deceptively simple controls and mechanics…but psychologically “segmenting” the course, and perfecting each individual segment on the way to a historically great time…it’s seriously tantalizing.
And while I might be playing seated in a chair, and in pretty good physical shape…after a 14:50-type run in this game, your arms are weak/shaking, your heart is hammering, and your breathing is definitely more labored haha sounds ridiculous, BUT WHEN YOU BREAK DOWN HOW RIDICULOUS 14:47.9 IS…well, it all makes sense with proper perspective…
Wow…this thread is dead, and so is the competition in the app, if not for myself and my efforts.
So tell me: what’s wrong with that picture?
Or, rather than tell me, SHOW ME.
Knock me off the leaderboards, I DARE YOU.
(Truthfully, I could kick pretty much EVERYBODY not named “Clint Stapleton” off the 25-person leaderboard…and that ISN’T a joke).
Absolutely pitiful overall, y’all are lacking, and the ZIN BROTHERS will inevitably re-write…well…pretty much everything (not my problem).
Literally…in a years’ time, expect pretty much all the names on that 25-person leaderboard to be Zin-related, both in JV and Varsity.
NOT because I’m better than others, only because I’m so much HISTORICALLY BETTER THAN EVERYBODY IN THIS GAME, OVERALL.
Like, I’m practically playing my own game (strategically) at this point, and it’s quickly becoming BORING.
So y’all seriously need to step up…PLEASE.
I NEED A CHALLENGE, PLEASE.
And SHAME ON ME for needing to turn to the LetsRun message boards…not that I expect much of a competitive response from ANY of you, y’all are competitively BASIC.
Just to emphasize…y’all don’t suck, y’all just suck at THIS PARTICULAR GAME…which is ironic, given the subject matter and basic mechanics/controls…like, wow…just, wow…
I’ve pretty much mastered the game, constantly (and creatively) improving upon it performance-wise, so perhaps just…GIVE UP.
I am no stranger to discomfort, and a certain level of discomfort IS needed to run sub-14:50 in this game, as ridiculous as it might sound (then again, those finding the thought ridiculous will never break through to it).
If you plan on taking any of my times down WITHOUT feeling physically (as well as psychologically) challenged, then you have another thing coming.
At this point, I desire an interview.
Is there an option to operate a burrito truck?

Or visit one (I was under the apparently mis-impression that this was a team management game)?
I’m picking up what you’re putting down…DESPITE my performance-based excellence in the app, I haven’t yet been tested (to ANY degree) due to the app’s dwindling popularity overall (it’s really quite sad…and I’m working to get things back on track “professionally”…)
But, despite the lack of testing, I’m still getting in ~100 races per day, so it also comes down to the “relentless, methodical, daily-grinding work,” if you can even fathom that.
BUT, it’s also no secret that I’m “the mastermind” behind The Zin Brothers, and so, given your perceived interest, I’ll reveal the following: a FOURTH Zin Brother is in training, Arturo Zin.
Interpret that as you will…
And as far as “team-based”…it’s only “team-based” if you’re so far superior to the competition, that you create new identities for a “fresh challenge,” in a sense “creating a team” over time (even though I have yet to encounter ANY challenge…which is the ROOT of the problem…).
So NO, it is NOT team-based, but I have made it seem so due to my overall dominance.
Allow me to state this as humbly as possible:
It is a team-based effort FOR ME, and ME ALONE, as it stands. Because I am really, Really, REALLY GOOD at this particular game (I HAVE ESSENTIALLY BROKEN IT).
And it isn’t more complicated than that, though it certainly defies logic.
Any further questions, MORAN?
Literally, if ANY OF Y’ALL feel some typa way about my dominance, feel free to boot me from the leaderboard(s). You’re more than welcome to, actually…and it’s “simple” enough.
THAT’S the intent behind ALL of this…to inspire and encourage ACTUAL competition, FAR BEYOND what everybody beyond The Zin Brothers has offered…I JUST WANT ACTUAL CLOSE COMPETITION IN THIS GAME.
