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.

getting mad now

    rooms are not based off rating.

    If they're not based on ratings, then why did he get smoked by a second? Didnt you mention, in another thread, that the rooms were going to be adjusted down to .7? What happened was he got placed in the lobby that goes up to 1650 and in that lobby guys on boost can run 9.5.. Happens to me too when I'm trying to find the cap in a lobby.

    Okay, so if rooms are no longer biased on ratings, and rooms are tighter then they have ever been.. Again I ask, why did he get smoked by a whole second? And I'm asking because it has happened to me too! I have pics lol.

    .7 of a second is alot faster then people think. Thats unfair to other people that are new to the game or cant get the hang of certain cars. For example if i have a say A class car and the best time for that car is say 8.2 and i can only do or get a 8.6 im in a room with everyone doing 8.2. Besides all the hacks and cheats we have to deal with this too. The rooms need to be based something else imo.

    It should be based i. Exact rating imo, 1651 races only 1651 then its only the tune making any difference

    Thats not a bad idea but they wont do that to much work for them.

    You know you can join rooms through your friends right? People do that all the time, that's how you get a powerful car in a lower level lobby. You can't do this in turf, but there are ways to tune your car to out perform others, you just have to take time to learn the game. You win some and you lose some, that's the nature of the game, once you realize that you will enjoy the game a lot more. It takes time to learn and get good at the game.
