Bug fixes and polish, including the following:

- Supertrucks are now excluded from the Campaign Matches 1, 3, 5. This is because these matches are designed to teach new players how to use Throttle, Steering, Weapons, and Support Items. Supertrucks use these items differently than Supercars, so these guides do not work well with Supertrucks.
