Hunt The Staff

The event will start at 20:00 (8pm) server time (UTC +1:00 DST) on Tuesday 26th July..
During event staff members (Moderators and NFS:SA Team) will be hidden around whole SA map and players will have to find them, just like while looking for unique cars parts.
Some info and rules:

Hidden staff members won't be visible on radar and nametag will be displayed only if you are close enough
Staff members will be hidden in common places, easily accessible for everyone without stunts. If it will be too hard to find someone, he will start driving around his place.
Staff members will use SUVs as cars which will come in update - just a small preview of them
If you'll find someone then you have to write on global chat his name and his car.
Reward for a found staff member is premium code for 10 days and everyone can find only one staff member and get only one reward.
During event you will have small board about hidden members on screen in freerun mode.

After the event we're planning to make a cruise around LV so it will be time to take some screenshots or record a YT video.
Best meeting place will be Las Venturas Creek.

After the event and meeting will be time for server update!
At 00:00 server will be closed for some time due to general maintentance and of course update.

New Cars Unlocking System

First and most important change will be new cars unlocking system. Previously you had to earn specifed amount of RP to unlock car (each car had own RP requirement) Sometimes you could unlock your favorite car fast, sometimes you were forced to collect more and more RP even if cars were from same class.
With new system you will still need RP but know you can exactly choose what do you want to unlock.
I believe that screenshots below explains everything:

New Class - SUV

Second huge change are SUVs.
For now there will be 5 SUVs, more SUVs will come in the following weeks:

Walton
Cartel Cruiser
BeeJay XL (Gang Rancher)
Huntley
Kalahari (unique)

Also will appear new race mode - Off-Road, only for SUVs. They are just simple sprints and circuits but with checkpoints you have to drive through.
With new mode there will be new 6 tasks (3 for playing off-roads and 3 for winning off-roads).

New Map Selection Menu

There will be also UI improvement - new map selection menu.
New menu is more interactive and user-friendly.
You are now also informed about map author and you have preview image of every map.

New Rims System

6 new rims
2 new rims brands
Each wheel can be now colorable separately in Paint Shop
While buying new rims you can now choose also size.
NEW! 6 spinners - available in Accessories Shop but you have to unlock them with Body Points.
