New update v1.26 "Real Racing" is live!

Hello everyone!

The big one is here! 2 new tracks and tons of updates and tweaks to the handling model and more! These 2 new tracks showcases everything we've learnt from your feedback so far. Hopefully you like them much better than most of the current tracks.
The update is now available in both the public and the beta channel.

New!

  • Leaderboards will be reset very soon if they haven't already. Clean slate for everyone! The best drivers in Pre-season 1 will be announced later this week in a separate announcement.
  • Finally added race restart button after a time trial (and custom) race! (community suggestion)
  • Added new racing track "Corsa Autodrome" to custom events and time trial. (Career mode still includes the same roster for now, we will update the league once all new tracks are complete and decided)
  • Added new rally cross track "Woodland Loop". (Career mode still includes the same roster for now, we will update the league once all new tracks are complete and decided)
  • Removed or moved away easy-to-run-into fences on several maps. (community suggestion)
  • Removed on-track obstacles on all maps. (community suggestion)
  • Lowered grip overall and lowered impact of grip upgrades a bit so cars don't get insanely grippy at high levels. (which takes all the fun out of racing tracks just zooming around at max speed and steering..)
  • Tweaked rolling resistance and surface resistance so sand stops you more effectively and you stop rolling faster when in neutral.
  • Made most cars a bit heavier and more balanced
  • Added TCS display to HUD when it is working to limit slip
  • Increased traction control effectiveness
  • Increased zoom speed after you've decided to start the race to get closer to the action faster. (community suggestion)
  • Lowered fog density by a factor 3 for better visibility from high (community suggestion)
  • AI now chooses their own colors for neon and spoiler and whether they want them on at all.

Fixed issues

  • Fixed AI avoiding and trying to get past other cars. (community suggestion)
  • Fixed bug causing everyone to always have spoiler
  • Fixed oilslicks sometimes not disappearing
  • Fixed minor UI issues

As always, post feedback in discussions or join our discord and post there.

Hope this takes the game in a direction you like, let us know! Oh and hope you're enjoying those trading cards :)
