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.

I have a noob question about lobbies

PSYCHO32PSYCHO32 Registered Users 51 Posts
I've been reading on hear where people tune their cars down to get in better lobbies. Is there a set car rating that lobbies will be based out of. Or is it a floating number? I don't know if that makes sense. For instance is it 1656 is to for one set of lobbied and 1657 pulls you into a higher one. Or does it not work that way?

    It pretty much works that way although we just make estimates since only the devs actually know how the rooms are but ur heading in the right direction.

    Sorry to revive an old thread...

    So, this "tuning down" would apply to my Focus, which I have maxed, but now I am basically stuck trying to race Vipers and other super cars?!

    If that's the case then the only reason to max a car would be to try for WR or just PB?
    Actually to be most effective you are just trying to get as fast a car as possible into a bracket window where you will match up well against most opponents?
