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.

So this one thing has been bothering me and the motorsport fanatic I am doesn't make it any better.. I don't understand why some of these cars are "rivals edition" cars? Slapping it on there like it's an exclusive when it's clearly not

Toyota mr2 "RE"?
SARD MC8-R
Toyota supra RE?
1995 JGTC toyota supra
Mand RX8 RE?
Badbul mazda RX8 drift car
BMW M3 RE?
BMW M3 DTM with the exhaust in the wrong place

Excuse me if this sounds like a rant.. it probably is Idk but why? Why not use the original names?

    *coughs* *coughs* so they don't pay for use of original name, marketing stunt.
