***** SUMMER SALE *****


Only a few days left from the summer sale. It is time to get your copy.




Update 10
In this update, we were focusing on the car handling and fixed several known issues.
We changed the differential simulation to a better one, which provides better turning and driving performance on road surfaces. Several other components such as steering and suspension are also re-balanced. We introduced locked differentials, which is more suitable for drag or hard offroad racing. Tire grip also changed to provide more realistic feeling and better performance for each category. Using the proper tires on the right surface is even more important now. We performed several optimisation for our race tracks to gain some extra FPS on lower-end machines.

Version:1.0.2799




  • Differential tweaked for better driving performance on road. Using too much power on low grip surface such as dirt could cause the car to turn at acceleration. To avoid such a problem, use locked differential or less ratio
  • Added locked differentials for drag and offroad racing. Locked differentials helps the car to straighten at acceleration, but could make the car harder to turn if the grip is too much
  • Some of the suspensions and steering is re-balanced
  • Tire grip re-balanced to avoid too much grip on wider tires or too low pressures, tires are now more effective and realistic on proper surface
  • New categories in newspaper to separate items and for easier search. Added mounted rim+tire as wheels in the newspaper.
  • Default steering sensitivity changed to 1/4 (only if you start new profile, existing profile won't change, but we advise you to manually adjust)
  • Performance optimisation (Yanagin)
  • Fixed and re-balanced receiving of damage
  • Fixed and smoothed road in Outback
  • Fixed time trial best results, which won't disappear anymore
  • Fixed several components weight
  • Fixed several smaller bugs
  • Fixed 6th gear using H-Shifter


Have Fun!

UPDATE 9


In this update we added a completely new area to the game, called Yanagin county. Yanagin county contains new free roam, new street race locations, gas stations, and two tracks. Yanagin forest is now part of this area and we added a new track: Mount yanagin. This is the longest and most difficult track in the game. To reach these places, you have to use the new map.

We made a new progress ui in the garage to be able to follow your progress in the game. Now you can see the required points/races for the next skill level and the beaten revheads.
The new unlock map on racelobby screens inform you how to unlock the different race modes or racetracks.

From now you can upgrade your parking place depending on your skill level.

version: 1.0.2724




<*>Added new track: Mount Yanagin
<*>Added new area with new free roam, street race locations and gas stations
<*>Added progress card
<*>Added unlock map to racelobby screen.
<*>Added the possibility of upgrading parking place
<*>New Panania custom models added to newspaper.
<*>New leave track button was added to the racelobby. Use this button to return to the track's drive in.
<*>Oil filter's life cycle was expanded, because it was just too short.
<*>Components of different brand/size got different mass.
<*>Racing air filter got new 3d model, and expanded life cycle.
<*>Auto shifter was tweaked for more efficient gear selection. Thanks to this, if you are using auto shift, you can reach the corners at higher speeds and maybe you have to brake harder now! Your car might be less responsive for steering. In this case you might need to adjust the keyboard sensitivity or simply reduce air pressures in tires to compensate.
<*>New bosses with Panania special models.
<*>Pitstop workflow was updated.
<*>Fixed some small reported bugs/problems

Update 8


This time we made more change in one bigger run. We found several bugs thanks to our players and we also tweaked many numbers in our physics engine. As a result the car handling is improved. New tire setup, steering setups and a bit of tweak with here and there, we hope all of you will enjoy the rides and races with these new setups.

We were also busy with many other changes and we added a new car: Panania. This is an imported Japanese car from the 90's which bring some L4 and V6 into the game. Wing is also a new item you can use on this car, and which will be available for other cars as well later.

Since this update has several major changes in physics and car component base setups, some of your existing car might will act differently. If you find something which you could not fix or annoying, let us known here!


Date: 26-05-2017


Version: 1.0.2540




  • added new car: Panania and PananiaS with 5 and 6 speed gearbox and 2 new engines as default, L4 and a V6, both with a max revolution of 9000/min!

  • added some new rims and wider slick tires
  • added speed factor in detailed info of steerings, which shows the maximum suggested speed for it
  • added SE steering with higher speed index for cars where original cars are slow and therefore the factory steering must be a bit less responsive.
  • fixed shaking external (follow) camera
  • fixed Yanagin track surface for nice and smooth corners
  • moved tuning parts from Generic to Euroa brands
  • updated newspaper to avoid of partial or complete loss of “Extra” parts because the end of the 4th page, it's possible now to step one page further to reach the parts of that category.





Update 7
In this update we were focused on newspaper next to few fixes. In this version, player has control over when he/she want to refresh the newspaper with the ability to buy one. If a newspaper is too old some of the items became expired (sold out) in time. So player can buy anytime (with a bit of time delay), can mark favourite parts to buy it later, but need to deal with sold out items as the newspaper getting old.
The new car is under testing atm and will be released very soon along with many new parts. We are also started to build up a new track next to Yanagin, a track with more elevation and with more corners. Next update will focus on the new car, keyboard controls and more visibility for the newspaper to show more info about items before buy.

Date: 29-04-2017


Version: 1.0.2347




  • changed the way newspaper get refreshed: now you can buy a new one and items will expired after some time, so player has more control over the content of newspaper
  • introduced Favourite in newspaper, so you can find items easier in an older newspaper as well. Also add more visual feedbacks on items being sold or expired.
  • newspaper keep last opened page for easier navigation
  • Tweak auto-shift for more dynamic shifting, also when car slows down
  • tweak several npc cars, mainly tire pressures and sway bars to make them more stable
  • add realtime weight calculation for fuel, water and oil
  • Fix duplicated XGTV8: Magura has the factory setup, while Euroa is a more advanced (tunned) version of the same engine. (Euroa is a racing brand in the game and can / will use existing items from other brand, but with tunned up versions)
  • Fix speech bubble long text which was not split correctly and missed some parts of the text

Update 6 LINUX
This update was focusing on Linux and some newspaper upgrades! We made our game runs on Linux and it was time to release it! We officially support Ubuntu 64 bit system, but we will try our best to help out everyone who run into problems with installing or running the game on other distributions as well.

We also moved a bit forward with our Newspaper and re-organized it a bit. Next week more changes will follow with more newspaper upgrades!

We are also busy with our new car and with some localization, which will come soon in a later updates.

Date:22-04-2017


Version:1.0.2281




  • Add support of Linux 64 bit (official supported dist. is Ubuntu 64 bit system)
  • Newspaper get more pages and contents are slightly re-organized to find more items
  • tweak damage / wear system (less damage for some components, like gauges, oil filters, drive belts, etc)
  • tweak control of starting race, player now has the ability to change gear, views and use acceleration during count down to allow better and quicker start
  • tweak tutorial Walea to get water temp gauges, because it was missing and was a bit misleading for few players
  • several minor fixes with fences, road signs and levitate NPCs at parking places

Update 5
This time our main focus was on the AI. We improved a lot on how the NPC characters behave and drive. We also balanced which NPC can drive on which track. In our game NPC has 3 levels of skill: Amateur, Pro and Revheads. In this update we set which type of NPC can drive on which track to make sure each track give better challenge and also you will get more challenging opponents in Challenge mode or in harder tracks. Starting is easier, but pro tracks are more difficult and need better cars to keep up with NPC. Backyard is for testing and beginners, so you don't have to use the best car, but you have to watch for the amateurs around you. On the other hand, if you go to Gutta Raceway Park, you will only see Pro and Revheads, with a lot faster cars and smoother driving skills from them. Hope you will like the way we balanced the opponents and tracks.

Date: 17-04-2017


Version: 1.0.2254




  • improve AI driving skills
  • tweak and balance of each track vs npc (different skillset will challenge you)
  • player will start from the last position to give more challenging race feeling (you have to beat them all!)
  • add supercharger to HP calculation
  • tweak auto shifting
  • tweak challenges, add more random to be able to race in cars (you still can go for money, once you beat the first guy and won a car)
  • tweak several suspensions used by fast cars (Magura and Euroa) to use toe-out to allows better turning at higher speed
  • add twice as more jobs in the garage, each is designed to help to understand or find common problems (jobs are a bit like a FAQ, so we keep our eyes on our players and we add the most common problems as a new job)
  • fixed some job's hint where the text was cut too early and did not fit in the speech bubble
  • fixed steering after end of race, when ai take over the player car
  • fixed regenerate of textures after restart of race, which caused big latency and count down stuck at 3 for some time

  • fixed tire usage, less grip on used tires
  • fixed some message which appeared at wrong time, like "Missed checkpoint" before start of a race
