When a player is great he can do again. Congratulations, Pac. If the speed of the game in 0.106 is wrong again, for the third time you´ll do again in the next emulator.

Many thanks, innuendo!

I sense some kind of sarcasm on this one, so let's clarify things:

The Z80 clock on this one was measured from a real PCB, but in the end the change was quite minimal after checking it out (barely noticeable via screenshot reg test, presumably). And, unless nobody ever do HW tests on the real machine for waitstate support (that is very unlikely anyway), the speed will hopefully never change again. Now, even if shmups guys says that a single frame counts (so they do "lagless" versions and crap like that) I'm not that extreme, I was just pointing out that there was a different clock speed and that's it. Otherwise, the editors are going to invalidate every single CPS-1 inp made prior to the forecoming 0.148, just because I've just changed the pixel clock in it ... for a barely noticeable difference in FPS (something like half frame per second faster). I'll let you decide if that is even fair, but I don't have any doubt about it ...

Returning to Crazy Rally, the fun part about this one is that I was just curious to know about why you (PAC) used an ancient version of MAME, and obviously stumbled across the WIP logs and reported back a fact, even though with colorful words I admit (sometimes I can be very harsh, but it's how I live anyway). By re-doing the inp proved that you weren't cheating in the first place and I appreciate that.
