Some of the classes have been and continue to be adjusted slightly. No drastic changes though. See the [old link removed] thread in the mtrek.com forums for more info.
While they have little or no effect on actual gameplay, the “ranks”, seen on the odometer page [esc shift-o] and the in-game announcements, have been updated. Rank in mtrek has always been there for amusement primarily, and secondarily, as a recognition of sorts, for achieving high scores.
So here is a breakdown of the rank assignment system:
