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.

Stopping scammers and hackers

Here something you can do to try and stop these yoyo's.
Go through the showrooms and look at all the cars, look at what the basic rate is. ( example, Chevy 69 Stingray, C Class at 1615 to start) This will give you a chance of knowing what cars can run at.
Scammers will lobby jump by using you or others friends, to join in different lobby's, through the friends list. They can bring what ever type of car they want into any lobby that they join through the friends list. They can join your friends list at any time just by viewing you and your garage.
CHECK YOUR FRIEND LIST, if there is someone there that you DO NOT KNOW, UNFRIEND THEM.
Watch the spectators replays, if you car is running 12.54 seconds, and everyone is running about the same, and you see a replay where they are running 10.05, this is a LOBBY JUMPER and possibly a SCAMMER. They will try to pink you or race you of cash, if so just chicken out. They are the ones that are losers not you.
Scammers will say that their giving away free cars, or try to trade cars, say the are quitting the game, or they will foul the race. That's a scam.
Now the latest thing, is the hacking of accounts.
Hackers are now using Facebook to access accounts in Racing Rivals. Somehow they are accessing this, so therefore DO NOT USE FACEBOOK IN RACING RIVALS. My team leader was hacked and he found out who they were, and they have all his cash and cars that he has built up over the last year.
Racing Rivals will not replace anything so he has to start again from scratch.
Usually scammers and hacker will have fast cars and a low levels which you can view what's in their garage.
I hope this will help.
