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.

My (old) ipad is back to crashing every time before it can load my garage.i may need to buy a new one soon. Any ipad users out there playing on a new ipad? Which ones work with this game and which don't. I'm not investing an arm and a leg for a new ipad only to find out I'm in the same boat as I currently am. I enjoy this game but it may be time to hang up my hat.

Anything that uses and software like the 4s iPhone and below will have issues.
Note. My iPad airs have crashed in race lobbies or sudden quick window changes but very little occur. I barley race on the iPad since the updates. The new layout is still to big on the paddle shifters and nos gas are to spread out. I miss the old layout.
So I would make sure when running Rivals, that any unnecessary apps are not running, and any features like bluetooth and gps are also not running. Basically, you want to make sure that your device is running with minimal things going on.
Also, check how much data is being used up by "other" in iTunes. You might have to backup your device and reset to get rid of the unneeded data being used in "other".
Soon to be Ex-Carbonated Community Manager
