Members Choice XXIX Pack Release!

Welcome to the 29th Members Choice Pack!

  • 1995 Hamda NSL 3.0 S-R :

    Whilst the standard version aimed to be an "everyday supercar", those compromises were dropped for this track orientated special!

  • 1968 Limbogenie Montera 3.9 P4S :

    Initially created in secret, this stunning 1960s sports car kick-started the flamboyant future of the marque.

    There are two variants of this car, in left-hand drive and rarer right-hand drive forms.

    Please note: there are issues with the price cap with expensive older vehicles such as these. I aim to improve this soon.

  • 1993 Dahler Typ 926 3.0 LM :

    Whilst many cars are created as homologation specials, this car was the opposite. It was a race car turned street legal. That doesn't, however, make it particularly usable outside of the track...

  • 1971 Fawn Falkner 5.8 GT Bathurst III :

    (Bonus) Speaking of homologation, here is one such special with a huge fuel tank included, alongside many other upgrades. This Australian touring car was touted, but not necessarily proven, to be the world's fastest four-door production car in 1971.

  • 1988 Fawn P1 2.0 :

    (MotorNation's Choice / Bonus Ball Nomination) And now for something decidedly more ordinary... This half-car, half-pickup was once a common sight on British roads. Providing a more car-like experience than a van, it often found favour within various trades.

As usual, the above vehicles may be available new or secondhand in the classifieds, as appropriate, from time to time.

The following vehicles were also updated:

  • 1991 VoltPogen Scission 1.8 GT II.

All players can access these vehicles.

A massive thank you to those that have contributed towards getting these in-game!

Offensive Player Username Handling Improvements

In addition to the recent new player reporting feature, there have been further improvements made that now allow player accounts to be locked, but given an opportunity to choose a more suitable name where an offensive name was previously chosen.

Such opportunities are discretionary and not guaranteed. Therefore, please ensure you use a sensible username in the first place!

Other noteworthy changes since v0.59.10:

  • Should no longer take race entry fee / time more than once on duplicate race entry.
  • Improved handling of duplicate race entries.
  • Fixed error when a poll option is attempted that exceeds the maximum character length.
  • Re-worked image attribution tool tips. Which should fix issues in Chrome.
  • I can now record drivers side per vehicle, e.g. LHD / RHD / Middle :)
  • Updated sustainability metrics and development roadmap.
  • Updated own car submissions page.
  • Improvements in the administrating of player locks, especially relating to offensive usernames.
