Sorry for the late post guys. I had been sick for the past few days and couldn't get too much work done, or get active on the discussions. My health is getting better so expect the update very soon.
Here's a run down of whats coming in Update 2.0 (Single Player):
-New Map (City)
-New Car (Huracan Spyder-first convertible in the game)
-Improved drifting mechanics
-Improved force feedback when steering
-Ability to get out of the car and walk around
-Pedestrians and Traffic system
-Cops
Update 2.1 will add improve the cops even further, with further improvements in the driving system. 2.1 will also feature full nonvr compatibility, along with wheel support (partial) and perhaps a 3rd person pov even in VR (suggestd by Craig). Expect a gameplay video of current progress of Update 2.0 in a few days. Update 2.2 will allow the players to play as Cops and bust racers.
Thank you all for your continuous support. As a token of appreciation, all users that purchase the game on or before August 10 will receive an exclusive car (McLaren 720s) which will be rewarded with the release of Update 2.0.
Single Player AI Update
New update with Single Player Bots is live. Play against computer for practice. This is just a test run. Will be doing a new update in a couple of days and modifying the current car unlocking system, along with progressive campaign-type of layout with the AI. Try it as is while you can! The new update also fixed the car not spawning bug, and car reset system for freeroam was also reworked/revamped and now resets your car closer to (location wise) where you pressed reset.
Update on Progress
First of all, I hope everyone had a fun 4th of July!
There are a couple of know bugs remaining in the game. They are being tackled (actually, most are already fixed). Will be rolling out an update in a day or two. Second, I'm also currently focusing on integrating AI (bots) so users have something engaging and someone to play against if there are no actual players online. Will roll out an update with bots (perhaps in a week or so) and from there, I will start working on a full fledged campaign with progress and something to achieve. Of course, with campaign will come new cars and new tracks. Along with that, I'll also be rolling out some additional activities to do while in freeroam. Will release info on that in the next News Post. Stay tuned as I have a couple of other stuff to annouce very soon as well. And as always, thank you for your support! And remember to check the Youtube channel for sneak peaks on WIP stuff and join the Discord channel if you haven't already to chat with other VR Racing players. Any questions? Email me or post your comments/questions here and I'll respond within a day (maybe a couple hours depending on your timezone).

For a limited time, you can also grab the game for $9.99 instead of full $14.99 price. To get the game at discount, pay $9.99 (USD) using paypal.me/puregamez or make a donation of the amount at patreon.com/puregamez14. Following payment, you will be emailed a Steam key which you can redeem and gain access to the game. Be sure to include your email in Notes if using the paypal.me link so I know where to email the steam key.
Some Notes: No refunds will be issued if you purchase the game using these methods, as Steam keys cannot be "unredeemed" meaning once you receive a Steam key from me, I no longer have control over it. Please make sure you are planning on keeping the game if you are going to be using either of the methods above.

New Update
A new update has been just released fixing the bug of car not spawning at random times. The udpate also disabled the "invisible boundaries" meaning now you can, once more, move around freely all over the map. There are a couple of other bug fixes coming along in the next update.
Update on Game
For Fourth of July, I want to do something special. There's already a new patriotic skin (US Flag) in the game for Mustang; purchase the game on or before 4th of July to claim the skin! More coming soon.
Currently, full freeroam is disabled (players are unable to go on the grassfields) which breaks full immersion and realism. The reason I had done that was because some people complained about seeing grass inside the car when on the fields. Because of teh complaints, I completely disabled being able to go on grass until I fixed the issue of seeing grass in cars. I will be releasing an update very soon opening the grassfields, with the fix for issue of being able to see grass inside car. Thank you for your patience.
WMR Fixed
All issues with WMR are now fixed. The whole interaction system was updated, and optimized. the grabbing of gear and handbrake was customized for all the cars and it can be done with both hands now.
WMR Update
I have been devoting all of my time and working for the past couple of days on fixing wmr. The reason for wmr issues is that wmr controllers don't support steamvr skeletal input, so having to redo the whole interaction system (which is extremely time consuming hence the long time its taking to fix).
Don't worry, I had not abandoned wmr. It's just I had been working literally all day to fix wmr for past days and couldn't be active on the Discussions either.
Because all my time had been consumed on fixing wmr, I could not work on other updates or adding new content which might experience a few days delay as well.
And remember guys, if you have any questions or need help, please message me on Discord or email me or ask for help here. I will always respond in a timely manner!
