20170601 - PATCH NOTES
Just pushed a patch up, we're still working on finding more performance related issues in the game and will have further updates in the coming week to address the performance issues that everybody is having. We hope that this patch can make the game playable and enjoyable for those who suffering with the performance problems, notes:

Added option in Settings to turn off Replays - this should improve performance for some with slower HDD's.

Fiyah! Fury Day Reverse should no longer suffer from its poor frame rates relative to the other variants of the track.

Speed class cards are now working correctly in the campaign now. No more shall the AI fly off into the sunset! (unless you're Purdisc, sorry.)

Spectate mode in Multiplayer should now be working correctly, let me know if there are any further issues with it.

Tech Credits in multiplayer should now be awarded and display other players correctly.

A series of small fixes to improve performance - we’re not done yet - expect another patch in the coming week!

Please use this thread to comment on changes you see to performance compared with last night.
