Speedway Race now has Verse Persistence! Cinematics have been added, and the landscapers cleaned up the scenery, giving it a more natural landscape design. Lumen was used on the new day/night cycle allowing for softer shadows and realistic global illumination.

Maybe they need to rename the Fireside chats to something different for the summer month?
Crank the AC then "We’re grabbing some warm coffee, starting up the fire, and having a chat with Twin on June 26th at 2 PM ET."
Better Alternatives would be:
FirePit Side Chat.
Pool Side Chat.
Beach Side Chat.
Cabana Side.
I've turned my fireplace on and its now a Sauna Side Chat.
Haha that's fun! We're closed for a bit in the summer, so we won't have anything in July -- but this is a fun idea! Maybe we can do it next year. :)
Since the release of 30.10 I've had a team rotation bug once the round is over, basically it is a best of two rounds game mode, and each team is meant to play both sides, The switch works for one team, but the other team ends up on a non-existing team3 and spawns in the sky, Guessing not that many creators is using this option since I havent seen any reports, been working great up until this update
Thank you, getting this reported.
