If you've played the game recently you'll have noticed all the holiday decorations in the World, the snowy playground of the Golf Course, the "Snowflake" Edition Porsche 911 Turbo and now a few competitions have started.
The first competition, which started yesterday, is the "Home for the Holidays" Winter Community Event. This is based around a new race event called 'Home for the Holidays'. It's a sprint race which starts in Century Square and takes you for a long cruise through the world to enjoy all the special Holiday decorations in the game.
