PHYSICS UPDATES + NEW GAME MODE
Major adjustments to the physics have been made to provide a more fun and engaging experience.
We have been listening to all your feedback on our physics and have made several adjustments to allow for more feeling of weight, grip and better handling between grip and drift. We now have the ability to not only tune a car for drifting but also traditional racing as well.
We have included the following additions to complete our physics adjustments.
Slick Tires
Tune Defaults for Drift and Race
Major Sim Rig Force Feedback changes
New time trial game mode features 12 brand new layouts designed purely for traditional racing.
PERFORMANCE
We've implemented major optimizations across the game, resulting in an general performance increase of 15%, with some systems seeing even greater gains. Rendering settings, Materials, Meshes have all received large passes to reduce overhead, improving frame rates on lower-spec PCs. Performance should now be in line with other third-party titles built on Unreal Engine 5. Additionally Nanite Resolution Settings have been added to help you squeeze more out of your game Should you like to trade off some model detail for some performance. (this can be found in the advanced section of the graphics settings)
MULTIPLAYER IMPROVEMENTS
Multiplayer has been a core focus for this update. We have reworked lobby input and removed input lag for clients. You can now play comfortably against your friends no matter where they are. We have also added the ability to turn off collisions when setting up multiplayer lobbies.

Fixes/Optimisations/Changes
Major
- Economy update, ToFu will now be much easier to earn and you will earn more per ToFu stage
- Streamlined garage main menu
- You can now purchase a duplicate part in the tuning menu by pressing “buy again” viewable in the bottom left button guide
- Chase run replay collisions vastly improved
- ABS (Anti-lock braking system) is now part of the tune menu and will change automatically based on changing the tune defaults
- Parts menu is now within the main secondary menu in the garage instead of within “Inventory”
- Improved part node cameras and positions for a smoother car customising experience
Chase game mode score changes
The Chase Game Mode scoring system has been overhauled to emphasize precision and realistic tandem drifting. Score multipliers based on drift states have been removed, and points are now awarded primarily for maintaining close proximity to the lead car. The threshold for achieving a “Tandem” drift has been tightened, requiring players to closely match the lead vehicle’s angle and direction. These changes raise the skill ceiling, encouraging tighter, more controlled chases and discouraging unrealistic drifting techniques.
