Focus This Week
Extending early access to the new Drifting ModelWe just need to make sure gamer tags are correctly linked on our servers. Once that’s done, we’ll be opening up access to all paid members tomorrow.
Creator Challenges RestartedWe’re restarting Creator Challenges this week. A new Spotlight Challenge, Lone Peak, from Xbox player 'S3even Heav3ns' will be publishing tonight, and we plan to add a new one each week going forward.
Huge thanks to our new community moderators on Discord for helping us get this going again.

Ongoing workWe continue to work on Accident Blackspots, Tightrope Mode, handling improvements, and other quality-of-life changes.We’re also working towards being able to commit to a clearer roadmap for larger content updates as soon as we can.
Fixes Coming in This Week’s Patch
PC: Keyboard rebinding (beta) - we’d love feedback once it’s in your hands
Gas station repair now reliably reattaches missing parts
Challenges moved into a separate save game to prevent stalling for players with very large saves
Drift fix: reduce the chance of cars rolling over during drift
Nebraska Wreckoning: prevent the event being played in any car, and remove incorrect cars from the leaderboards
AI ruleset fix (Road Rage): if more than 4 AI are applied, the game will show an error and limit AI to 4 (prioritising non-penalty AI)
