HIGHLIGHTS
- New tournament: Getaway Chase
- New tournament reward bundles
We're excited to announce the availability of a new tournament!
This time around we're taking you back to Hillstreet, racing flat out through the sprawling downtown streets from checkpoint to checkpoint in a race-prepped Tristar. In the event, the better you do between each checkpoint the more time you save, but with each successive lap you're given less and less time and at the same time the taxi cabs do their best to block you from taking the perfect line. How far can you make it? As for the weekly events, this time around they are a mix of neck-to-neck demolition racing as well as white-knuckle time trials with Rocket RX, so no matter which style is right up your ante there's something sure to strike the right chord with you. Make sure to participate since the tournament shop has been loaded with a new sweet Tristar bundle featured in the monthly event as well as another one for Speeddemon.
Naturally, this release also contains a number of enhancements and bug fixes, mainly for the new cup mode we rolled out in the previous major update. Please check out the release notes below for a summary of items added, fixed or improved upon.
