5-7-09 Important info regarding Mod update, please read! May 8, 2009 Hey Racers,
Please read this important information regarding this release of Street Racing:
• Crew Challenges will use Mods instead of Car Parts/Upgrades. This means that cars used in Crew Challenges will be chosen based on your modded Speed & Handling stats.
• If you want to sell your Upgrades, you can sell them back for the full sale price in the Car Parts page under Shop.
• We have added two new Mods, Tires and Headers. Go over to the Modify Car page to check them out.
• We have reduced the time it takes to complete Mods. The new times are:
o Level 1 - Installs instantly
o Level 2 - One day
o Level 3 - One day
o Level 4 - One day
o Level 5 - Two days
As usual, enjoy the new cars and property!
See you on the streets,
Racer Rom

5-7-09 Regarding recent rollbacks May 7, 2009
Hey Racers,
As most of you know, a few weeks ago some players began reporting that their characters had been rolled back. On most days, the scale of this issue is really, really low. By our estimates, only about 0.1% of daily users were experiencing this issue. However, if we restart the app (like we did last night for maintenance) the scale is much larger, and that's what we are seeing here today. We started looking into this issue as soon as it came up a few weeks ago, but because it was hard to reproduce, the cause was very hard to track down. Now that the scale is much larger, we believe we have found the problem, and we are working as quickly as possible to fix it. While we are still going forth on adding new content and exciting changes to the game, please know that we have a large scale of the dev team working on fixing this bug. I would throw every single programmer I have at it, but that isn't going to make it go away any faster.
Where do we go from here?
We don't expect to have the same large scale problem as we had last night/today, so we hope that players will go back to playing Street Racing as usual. The chance of being rolled back at this point should be incredibly small. If you were one of the players who were rolled back, please submit a ticket to Zynga Support. You can find instructions on how to do this at the Zynga Support website: http://www.zynga.com/support. In order for them to fully help you, be sure to include your User ID number, whether you use Myspace or Facebook, and a detailed list of what you lost when you were rolled back. Our support team isn't just for Street Racing, but all Zynga games, so please be patient if you don't hear a response right away.
My team and I are very sorry about this. For everyone on my team, Street Racing is our sole responsibility, and it is what we wake up and work on 5 (and sometimes 6 or 7) days of the week. Street Racing, the game and the community, is our livelihood, and when you guys are unhappy, so are we. The number of posts here is a testament to how much you guys love our game, and for that we thank you. We hope that you’ll continue to enjoy Street Racing for a long time to come. We’ve got some great stuff coming down the pipe, and can’t to unveil it to you in the upcoming weeks and months. Truly, it is your passion that drives us to work all of these crazy hours and weekends to make this game better.

5-1-09 Upcoming changes in Street Racing May 2, 2009
Hey Racers,
We have some changes coming very soon in Street Racing and we want to let you know what to expect. Please read below about the important changes we will be making:
Car Parts (“Car upgrades” and “Defensive upgrades”) will no longer be factored into crew races. Instead, the mods you have installed on your cars will be used in crew races.
Mod installation times will be reduced
We will be introducing two new mods: Tires & Headers
The reason for this change is that many of you have requested that that we place a heavier emphasis on improving the mod system. We agree that the Mod system is pretty interesting and has a lot of potential, and we believe that the first logical step is to bring Crew and 1v1 races more in line with one another.
We are really interested in your feedback regarding these changes. Once these changes are implemented, please head over to the Forums to let us know what you think! Thanks so much everyone!

The Friends widget will now be found on your Friends page which you can reach via the nav links.
The Refuel bonus widget has been removed. Now if you have Fuel buffs to send or receive you will see a button at the top of the Home page to fuel your crew.
If you need to recruit some new members or update your Facebook status message, this can be found at the bottom of the Home page. From here you can set your status or put the word out that you are recruiting new crew members.
