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.
Value of Turf Cars Ruined...
I think they need to change the way turf cars are rewarded. Having 2 seasons with the same cars ruins the value of them. Its nice that players get two chances but after that they are worth next to nothing. They should put new cars that haven't been cycled a bunch of times it takes the fun out of it too. Racing for a car that has no rarity takes the fun out of turfs. Don't get me wrong racing for wraps is always a blast..but when everyone has all the same turf cars its hard to trade and sell them and get what they're actually worth.just my .02 I think new turf cars and not running seasons twice with the same cars would make turfs a lot more fun to play. Seeing dodge challenger gt2s sold for a mil is a perfect example... what are your guys thoughts?

About the repeating cars though... I haven't been playing for very long but I'm already seeing repeat turf prize cars. It would be nice to see something I've never seen before as a turf prize like Scion tc gt spec, BMW z4 gt3, BMW m3 gt2, Chevrolet Corvette C6.r, Chevrolet COPO Camaro, and Dodge Viper ACR-X just to name a few. Sure some of those are available in the showroom so maybe that isn't a good idea. I'm just saying there are lots of cars I've never seen as a turf prize but I know exist because others have them and probably doesn't need licensing again since it's already in the game.
