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.

Street Cred is a joke

Seriously, I'm confused why you lose roughly 3 times the amount of SC as what you earn, with the same car, in the same lobby, per race. The point system doesn't seem to have any rhyme or reason. Honestly I could care less what my "Street Cred" rating is, but it's aggravating because it seems there are droves of people that lobby jump just to earn SC. Why else would you take your maxed EVO into a 30 lobby and race for free all day. The only explanation is to gain SC, which is absolutely dumb. I am missing something? Because the only benefit I see from it is the sponsor goals, which don't amount to much. Anyone else feel the same way?

    I've been floating at about 82k forever now!
    But i do agree mopardwh, it is vary annoying but only when it comes to the bots in lobbys.
    When you race a normal playing from what I've seen if they have high street cred you get the max i wanna say 150 street cred. If they have low street cred i think you get a % of what they have.
    The bots is diffrent you can beat them all day and only get like 24 if your lucky! But i assume thats because you can race them all day! If you know you have them than its easy street cred. Thats why you don't win big off of them...
    I could be vary wrong though. Thats strictly speculation.

    SC doesn't mean much in this game. In past games made by CIE/GLU there was a distinction that came with the level of SC you had gathered. This game is so spread community wise that it's really left as nothing more then an after thought of what could matter as opposed to what does matter.
