One of the highlights is Scrap Attack, in which players collect scrap littered across the tracks. Spectator Mode has also been added so that players can spectate online races as well as race.
Here’s the full rundown of the update from VooFoo Studios:
There’s great new content to get to grips with including a new ‘Scrap Attack’ event which challenges you to collect scrap items that have been scattered across the tracks! We’ve also added Elite Seasons 2 & 3 with tons of new events to challenge the most skillful of racers. We’ve enabled more variation in the single-player career and added a new Online Lobby Countdown, which should help you get into online races a bit quicker.
