Over the course of the last five years, Racing Rivals has grown into one of the most hardcore racing games in the world. This loyal community has spent countless hours competing in millions of races in “winner take all” fashion – all in the name of Turf Wars and pink slips.

However, all good things must come to an end… After spending time evaluating Rivals and its future – we’ve decided that it’s time to move on. Simply put, the revenue generated from Racing Rivals unfortunately no longer covers the cost of operations. This was not an easy decision to make.

On March 31st, 2019 – Rivals will be racing off into the sunset, and will be permanently shut down. Current players have until this date to utilize any accumulated virtual currency. We’ll be offering some massive reductions in the cost of crates, installs and repairs in addition to a reduction on timers as you race your way into the history books. Effective immediately, no new in-app purchases will be permitted.

In closing, a resounding and sincere THANK YOU to our extremely driven fans for your loyalty and dedication over the years – we hope you’ve enjoyed playing Racing Rivals as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.

HP vs Weight?

Is there any documentation on or does anyone know how much weight reduction is equivalent to 1hp? I'm trying to figure out if it's more beneficial to have (for example) +0.3hp or -3lbs.

    depends on the car...
    on R class, weight to power ratio gets under 3 pounds/hp
    on a Civic SI, it's 8 pounds/hp

    so a + 5 pounds + 1 HP is good on a Civic, not on a Stella...

    I dont know if this ratio is correct, but at least -5lbs on a civic means a lot! My civic type R was 10.3, now with just adding hood (-5lbs) is running 10.203

    Advice! if your going to be using your car to pink with, you will likely be using boost and nos. In that instance, you should actually calculate the HP to Weight ratio of your car with the included HP from these things. P.S. Not all cars actually follow the idea of best ratio means best tune.
