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.

Why do people suck

so I was playing casually I my m3 gt2 1670 and a ford gtr wanted to do pinks. I accepted THINKING he was around me little did I know he was a lobby jumping prick. Are you kidding me mate do you blow THAT BAD that you have to lobby jump. This game has really gone downhill. The gt-r was a 1680 btw so there is no way I got paired with him legit because I was racin people from 1667-1675 so that is some serious bull

    I think the join friend feature should be fixed up a bit because soo many people lobby jump. I'll go in a game for like 10 seconds then EVERYONE has a maxed r class in a game with low s's

    I think you have it wrong, sorry. But the lobby is 1663, then 1668. then from 1669 to max. If your car is a 1670 you will be paired with racers from 1669 to 1683.

    Yeah- i'd downtune to 68 mate. He was in the right room.But that won't stop the little wankers that lobby jump.
    I've said before we need a lobby midway between 68 and maxed- say 68- 76. Would be much fairer

    The game clearly states in the loading screens to not understimate the other cars.

    You lost the pinks because you were a dumbass.

    Again, sorry buddy, but its your mistake for not knowing what lobby you are in. Most cars when maxed end up in the middle of a lobby (like the Evo VIII maxed is 1662 is put in the 1663 lobby), you have to tune down. Anything 1669 and over you are on your own.
