While not vastly different from retail, there are still some changes to be seen. This build's UI is very similar to ''B3'''s earlier '''[[Burnout_3_(2004-04-28_demo)|standalone demo]]''', even including hidden leftovers.

=== Test Track ===
The files of a normally inaccessible track, referred to internally as a '''Test Track''', are present in the <code>TRACKS/US/C4_V1</code> folder. It can be played by copying its files over another track and launching it via the Single Event menu.
This track was likely used only for physics and gameplay testing, hence its name, and was never intended to be accessible by end users of the final game; however, several references to it can be found in Burnout 3's retail version.
