"Easy" way to backup and restore your save game
I made a simple batch script which backups your current savegame every time you start the game and asks if you wan't to restore the previous savegame.

Create a new .bat file to "My Summer car" install directory, for example
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\My Summer Car\startmysummercar.bat

and copy paste this in it:
@echo off SET savedir=%AppData%\..\LocalLow\Amistech\My Summer Car set loadPrevious=n IF EXIST "%savedir%.previous\meshsave.txt" ( set /p loadPrevious="Restore previous savegame? WARNING this will overwrite you current save(y/n, default is n)?:" ) IF "%loadPrevious%"=="y" ( robocopy "%savedir%.previous\ " "%savedir%\ " /MIR echo "restored previous savegame" ) ELSE ( robocopy "%savedir%\ " "%savedir%.previous\ " /MIR echo "stored current savegame" ) mysummercar.exe

And start the game by doubleclickking that bat file. Use it only if you know what you are doing, I'm not responsible if you manage to overwrite your savegame or something with it. I made it for myself and just wanted to share it. Works in Windows 7 at least.

%AppData%\..\LocalLow\Amistech\My Summer Car.previous

which usually is same as:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\LocalLow\Amistech\My Summer Car.previous
