Okay guys, I've been playing for like a day right now and here is what I think should have been implemented. 

1. When on a low-end PC (like mine), I experienced a problem of fps drops and such. The way I took was to turn the HUD off (so I cannot see the map/position/trackbar/speedometer). It gave me a better performance, but still...The main problem is the map, which is truly useful in races you know nothing about. I would like to suggest to give the players an option to choose WHAT EXACTLY THEY WANT TO HIDE, so HUD won't be turn off in full. I think map has the lowest impact on fpses, so turning off speedometer and position may be helpful for those who still want to know the way.

2. I have nothing against Drift challenges, but there is one thing that - in my opinion - should be there. When a player comes to the finish, we still have 30 seconds to finish drifting and collect the amount of points, which may lead you to the 1st place. WRONG! These last 30 seconds should be when other players come to the end (needed if you want not to be disqualified) and their points are actually going down cause of their slowness (like 50/ 100 points each 5 seconds).

That's all guys, hope you will give it a look (especially the first one, I miss it). BB.
1. You already can disable some hud in garage in settings menu. Take a look there. For low PCs we strongly recommend to disable custom car sounds or atleast 3D sounds in same settings menu.

2. It's not really fair because some cars are much faster at drifts like most FWD cars or slower like some RWD cars and you'll never end drift map at same time like other opponents. At long drift with different cars usually other players are not able to finish drift race within 30 seconds after first finished player.
1) this may be a cool feature. I don't really experience low fps issue, but why not.

2) So a player who is a lap behind doesnt get to finish, when first person already finished gets disqualified? I don't understand that suggestion tho.
Bartek said it all.
