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.

As it is now you can add anyone to your friends list without them saying yes or no.
Personally I think this is wrong as it leaves the door wide open to being stalked by another player since they can add you as a friend and then just follow you around no matter how much you change servers.
Also the ignore function is only available if you have raced someone and it appears to do nothing as I have added players to ignore and they still can challenge me to races and I still see all their messages so what exactly are you ignoring?
The launch key should just be a set key not random all over the place
Nitrous should be activated by a key not a mouse click
Controller support would be nice too

The random key is not too bad for launch. It would be better if you had a little delay before the lights.
Other than that, it's kinda fun to play on Facebook. No lag at all...
