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.

I also sound off when im in a lobby and run across a jumper i have since i was well off enough to know what the lobbys were set at and who should and shouldn't be in there.
I also wish more cats did that as well. And i have also noticed after being called out they do tend to leave pretty fast. I have had ppl get vary upset with me, telling me to mind my own business, they were just racing with a friend, or i had one guy tell me he thought scamming was fun and thats what the game was all about to him! Ive herd it all.
But back to my first point i spend a lot of money on this game and i don't belive jumpers, scammers, and hackers do because they are set with steeling from ppl like me and ppl like you who my not spend money, but would just like to enjoy the game in a real manner.
They don't need to spend money when they scam the real players.
I really think if glu could get these hackers and scammers under wraps they would have a tru muti million dollar app on hand.
I'm quite sure they have lost many vary good paying customers to hackers and scammers.
All we can do is try to stay one step ahead, and when we do run into a skeem that we are left defenseless in, make sure they are aware of it.
They may not be able to reimburse you for a loss but i have faith they will put the team on fixing the issue!
I for one would not want to be a part of there im sure less than 100 person team trying to patch and fix thousands of hackers and scammers cheats!
I for one say props on doing what they can to stop thieves in the game. But at the same time wonder why I've never seen this many issues in any other app or game i have ever played!?
