Sup Drifters!
We're letting Update 1.9.0 out into the wild! Enjoy a refresh for an old favourite, a bunch of new body kits, some new music + a MUSTANG FULL of fixes for references, exceptions, crashes and performance!
Hakone Remastered
We've taken Hakone to the garage and given it a full facelift. You'll find new Hidden Paths, your old favourite layouts and new records to be made on Tunnel Edge. We've added details like pagodas, mountains and more in this beautiful rendition of the mountain track we know and love!
New Pro Livery: George K 2020
We've added George K's SMOKING black 2020 competition livery to the livery options in Torque Drift. If you haven't got George K yet, we can bet you'll want him with this sweet new livery upgrade! Tag him on social media and you're sure to get some fire emojis and a whole lot of love for reppin' our man George!
Bdice "Aesthetic" Album Launch
With Bdice dropping his third album, we're stoked to be able to do our own launch party in Torque Drift! It'll now be in the Garage and the Paintshop, with his beats and tunes to get you into the vibe of building your dream drift missile. To celebrate his new album "Aesthetic", we've got a Sponsor Tree Challenge with a bunch of challenges and some superchargers to win sweet decals, so get drifting and show him some love! We'll be hosting some photoshoot contests and more over the next few weeks, so keep an eye on our socials!
New Part: 3 Spoke Advan Wheel
Discontinued in real life, we couldn't wait to get our hands on this GORGEOUS 3 spoke alloy for Torque Drift! It's unique, it's different, so slap it on some cars or merely add it to your collection!
New Bodykit: RX3
Alright already! We heard you! We've had this body kit in the works since the induction of the RX3 into the game, and we're proud to announce it's finally here! Dust off that old classic in your garage, and give it new life with this THICC kit!
New Bodykit: RX8
Another fan favourite, you've been asking, and we've been able to add in the RX8 body kit this update as well! No longer will your RX8 be a stock-boi. Get wide and get beefy with this new body kit.
New Bodykit: E92
We've added some sweet Clinched parts recently, and this E92 bodykit is no exception! It's got flash and it's got bold strong lines to set you out from the crowd! Big ups to Clinched for letting us get this wide bodykit in the game, you can check out more of their stock here;

New Features: Photoshoots and Lookback
We've made sure the lookback feature is an option instead of on by default, so if you're tapping away and messing up your flow, go into the menu and flick off the look back function in the controls settings. When you're in open lobbies, your car will now auto handbrake in drone made, to keep your wheels on the track to help you take that new favourite photo of yours!
