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.

Been hacked

Today 1/19/14 I was hacked by another racer. I was using my BMW gt2 when surujano55 challenged me. I raised bet to $500 he put up pinks. Knowing my car is fast (7.09 best time) I accepted it. When I went to leave it wouldn't let me hit nos or shift. He took my car. I quickly messaged him asking for my car back and got no response. So I took my other gt2 in and pinks him thinking I'd get at least his car or my car back. Wrong, the game froze at the line and wouldn't let me leave till .450 reaction. He took that car too. When I messaged him asking for at least one of my cars back he just laughed. I asked him again and no response he just went offline. I just want my cars back or at least one of them. I put a lot of time and money into those cars and I just want something back.

    Sad but true, the game creators know people hack and cheat, but they don't seem to have a problem because ultimately, your gonna want to buy another one so they in turn make $$.. Sorry for your loss.

    I will look into this user. We do have a problem with it but for as hard as we work to fix it they work just as hard to break it. Moving Target

    What good would a device ban be when they use jail broken devices and can just get a different IP address through cydia

    I will jailbreak my iPad strictly to check this all out. I have no intentions of hacking on the game but strictly to check this all out and give the right info. I had my phone jail broke years ago and don't remember 100%. I do remember it was scary what all could be done with it. I will report back shortly with my findings.

    Phones do have a meid. I will see what all I can change. Maybe I'm wrong. But there is a way to do everything unfortunately. You guys remember back in the days when people could steal your esn number and be on your phone? All of a sudden you get a $5k bill! There is a way to do everything. If some 13 year old can hack into the governments website I don't see someone not being able to change their device id or meid
