E' disponibile per Need for Speed Shift la nuova versione aggiornata 1.05 dell'ottima Community Patch, un upgrade non ufficiale realizzato dagli appassionati che però migliora decisamente il gioco, apportando numerose correzioni alla grafica, fisica, audio ed IA.

- Disabled intro movies
- Unlocked pre-order bonus cars

- Corrected uneven ride height settings for Audi R8LMS, Aston Martin DB9
- Corrected typo in Honda S2000 rear right spring range
- Corrected uneven Corvette Z06 front right spring setting
- Added "qualifying" fix to make faster AI drivers start at the front of the grid to reduce first corner pileups

- Corrected upgrades to force inclusion of stage 4 turbo upgrades in Works conversions
- Changed statistics files for Historic (patch 1.02/DLC1) cars to correctly reflect stage 2 and stage 3 turbo upgrades
