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.

@chrisjrab59. Lol. I though u already knew all of this stuff bro, btw, I know coding and website building. The new forums, u guys didn't do anything on there. Did u? Lol. Seems like its running stock. Either my phone shows it wrong, or u guys didn't even size the header image correctly. Idk just daying, but it seems like the website skills u claim aren't as sharp as you though they were. I'm taking classes in college about html, python, and advanced website structure, and honestly, seems like u guys don't have much experience in that area. Btw, some (alot) of letters need kerning adjustments
There is no traffic limit in that respect, i am hosting it on my own hosting package, on a subdomain off my own personal project website.
The vanilla pack i used is similar to stock but with many adjustments made in the underlayer as well as a ton of plugins. More to it than you can see.
Graphics were thrown together quickly to provide a better experience than a blank page. I have a professional photographer and web art designer whos a friend of mine working on a better banner.
Overall, this isnt meant to be the most beautiful forum out there, just be thankful its an alternative to the official forum thats in ruins right now, lol.
As i explained to someone else who was giving negative feedback earlier on before it was released, i dont need to prove my qualifications... Congrats that youre in college learning some of this stuff, it may be useful to you in the future as it has been for me for over ten years.
Hope you enjoy the forum, or if you dont like it we thank you for looking at it. @cars4drifting
IP banning isn't going to stop anybody who doesn't want to be stopped, they can just switch to a VPN. All that IP banning does is increase the risk of banning someone legit, and we don't want to do that unless it's absolutely necessary.
And also, it doesn't help, because they just go on a vpn and keep switching ips and making multiple accounts.They're going to come back anyways, might as well avoid any risk to other people.
and we currently have 2 admins and 6 mods monitoring the forum. should be easier to stop trolling and scamming.
