I am submitting this report to flag blatant cheating on the official and community PolyTrack leaderboards. By analyzing the global data and the physics behavior of the player youngfella's runs, it is mathematically obvious that he is using automated input scripts (TAS) or physical macros to camp the leaderboards for promotional purposes.

Here is the evidence for the case:

Impossible Statistical Monopoly (51.6%): Out of the 62 current official campaign tracks, the player ranks in the Top 10 on 32 different circuits, and remains solidly anchored on Page 2 (Top 100) for the rest. No biological fatigue, no variation in style, no weak maps. This level of consistency is mechanically impossible against tens of thousands of players. Real Top 1 players have specialties; he has no human limits.

The Past Confession ("TAS"): Leaderboard archives show this player originally competed under the explicit pseudonym "TAS" (Tool-Assisted Speedrun), with his times showing a 'Pending' status at the time due to the inhuman perfection of his keystrokes. The change of pseudonym is merely a camouflage attempt to deceive his 900+ YouTube subscribers.

Chronological Fraud (Day One): On several tracks (including the short track lu movimento), his unbeatable world record was recorded the exact day the map was released, when the leaderboard only had 2 players. There was no human learning phase, no frame-by-frame breakdown, and no collective optimization. The script simply read the geometry of the game files to instantly execute a perfect line.

Surgical Video Frame Analysis (1.212s Margin): His own proof video gives him away. The total duration of the clip exceeds his race time by exactly 1.212 seconds. After simulation testing under real conditions (even with the cursor pre-positioned on 'Stop' and maximum focus on the finish), the human reaction limit to launch, switch pages, and stop recording sits well above that. This exact timing down to the millisecond is the signature of an automated capture macro.

Physics Anomalies (Locked at 460 km/h): Replays show on-rail trajectories where the car grazes the void and structures pixel-perfectly without any steering micro-corrections. Even worse, during the final jump, the vehicle maintains a constant top speed of 460 km/h while remaining 100% horizontal mid-air, with no friction, deceleration, or logical weight transfer before crossing the line.

This player is using software tools to saturate the leaderboard and buy himself an artificial showcase. I request the removal of his assisted times to return the leaderboard to real drivers who spend months scraping milliseconds with the sweat of their hands. The real leaderboard starts at Top 2.

Thank you for checking his account input logs." youngfella.  (lu muvimento)

hm

This feels ai-generated but that might be just me. (If i'm wrong, my bad :D)

yeah bro

Counter arguments because your AI speech makes absolutely no sense

1. Getting in the top 10 on every track is not hard if you’re a top 3 player, it would be more concerning if he had 32 world records  

1.2. In fact, some people have achieved having almost every world record in a game, such as Trackmania Nations Forever, where one person held up to 55/65 world records at a single time. 

2. Yes, Youngfella did do TAS, but his leaderboard records have live recordings of him and his keyboard inputs. You are not able to TAS while actively driving a record.

3. His 0.6 record  was achieved many days after the game released. Also, since beta had already existed for 3 weeks and the track had existed for 9 months, there was plenty of time to practice.

4. Don’t know what you’re talking about because AI didn’t give enough context as to which video

5. Pixel perfect records are also achieved by luck sometimes, as I once randomly achieved a pixel perfect turn on many tracks that I played. (B01 Race is one of them)

6. So you stated previously that he is top 10, and now concluded with saying he is top 1? One of those is false. 

7. No one here in this discussion for SHARING CUSTOM TRACKS cares about this. If you want to bring this to people’s attention, (don’t) post it in a separate topic or in the cheating reports section on discord. 

That’s a waste of a bus ride 

Listen, I've given my opinion. It's up to you what you do with it.

PolyTrack all levels no shortcut WR (7:28.500)

This was a while ago but to me it doesnt look like TAS
