addedEXPANDED CAREERThree completely new championships with more series, more races and more crashes! That, and a host of important usability enhancements based on the feedback we've received, such as the ability to see the series restrictions, expanded vehicle classification, improved scoring and more. Scoring, unlocks and experience accumulation are still being worked on, so any feedback you care to share with us in regards to these elements would be super.
changedFOUR NEW CARSThis time nomen est omen for real since we're pleased to introduce you true tools of destruction: Bulldog, Hotshot, Speedemon and Warwagon. This newest set has something for everyone – a heavy-hitting demolition derby inspired American station wagon, another American with classic sleek lines straight from the 60s, a more exotic 80s sports car, and finally, a bad-to-the-bone Scandinavian folk-racing style 60s rod. Check them all out!
addedMORE CUSTOMIZATION PARTSEvery car now has a number of Front Bumper, Rear Bumper, Window Bar, Side Protector and Roll Cage customization parts that you can use to deck out your ride in a proper demolition racing style, and not only that: customization parts now have a weight and protection properties, so for an instance, a heavy demolition derby style front bumper will make the car withstand more damage to the business end but also make it slower due to the added weight. Rock!
addedNEW ENGINE UPGRADESThis too is something that we've gotten a plenty of requests for: all cars now also have a number of class-based engine upgrades that can be used to increase or decrease the class of the vehicle, so from now there's nothing stopping you from taking that awesome Class C front-wheel-drive Firefly to Class A events! (Don't forget to put on some serious metal as well, though, otherwise you won't last long.)
addedNEW ROUTES AND IMPROVED TRACK ARTTarmac 3 now has a reverse layout, and both Sandpit 1 and Tarmac 3 have new shorter routes complete with reverse layouts. In addition to that we've added a new wicked suicide racing style Speedway 2 route with tight loops at both ends and a high-speed oval section that's going to guarantee spectacular head-on crashes! We've also replaced many of the old legacy assets around the tracks with shiny new ones (yes, including that pesky fire truck), yielding a welcomed visual improvement.
changedNEW AND IMPROVED EFFECTSWe've enhanced old effects and added a number of completely new ones related to mechanical damage, and for example driving without a wheel will now cause sparks to fly off from the hub. There are also a bunch of brand new audio effects to add to immersion.

Howdy Wreckers, It's been a month or so after our previous, hard-hitting update was unleashed, and in case your battle wagon has been parked around the shed for a while, get ready to slip on your racing boots, prime the carb and jump behind the wheel once again!

We're all business so let's cut the verbal dilly-dally and check out the highlights of the update:
