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.

Do they send you into a lobby based on your car rating, street credit, quarter mile? I have a feeling it is car rating so are there cutoffs or ranges? If so, what are they?

    Yup, they also include your experience level in the equation. So if you re as high as I am, you end up racing the same people over and over. Even if this game has thousands of players... Some players have figured that out so every week, they create a new account, and race other players with low experience. Players with high experience are in empty rooms or racing the same 6-10 players for the whole turf...

    Ultimately, though. Rooms arent limited to ratings (other than turf), as high end players can join low rated friends and thus have a maxed car in a low room.
