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.

Do you ever want to use the XL and XXL bottles? does any cars need/use that much in a race or is it just weighing the car down?

    Its usually not used. I for one don't use any of these bottles. However, installing heavier bottles applies weight, therefore, altering the launch method. If a car is extremely hard to launch using the coasting method, applying weight may make it easier or harder. Experimenting would only be the way to find out. For D and C class cars, I would suggest using the Large Bottle (Pro 1), for some B class cars, the large bottle is necessary others dont apply. For A, S, and R class, the medium bottle is suggested. Hope this helps. :)

    If you use the 120 HP shot, (the Civic SI largest is 75), then, the faster the car is, the less you will have time to use NOS, so the smallest the bottle...

    If you were to put a 120 HP shot on a 16 seconds car, you might actually need a XL bottle...

    The slowest the car, the bigger the bottle you need (you use it for a longer time).

    And look at the car. If you spray as soon as you launch and have a 10lb bottle and are running out before finish line get bigger bottle. If you have a big bottle and are finishing with almost half bottle left get smaller bottle. None of my cars have 20-25lb bottle though. Pointless to me.
