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.

This Game is Designed to Punish Upgraded Cars

Is it just me or has upgrades on all your cars resulted in being placed in higher lobby levels to the point where you can't beat anyone? I remember I was beating 60%+ of opponents for awhile while I upgraded my cars. Now I am lucky to win 20% of the time. Also the lobbies are not fair. I see Vipers in the same lobbies with Civics! C'mon MAN!:(

    someone on forums, i cant recall, had made a thread about room caps. it'll give you specific ratings, it may be easier to win a few more races daily having the room capacity speed. but then again doesnt stop the guy with the viper entering your room challenging your civic. also, if you havent done so, invest in a R class car. The campaign mazda rx-7 gt spec, is the best choice out of all 3 options. they can run a 7.1-2 with a gem boost. Surely you can dominate then. goodluck.

    Man I got the viper gts and viper gts-r. I wish I knew about the Mazda lol. This stinks. :(

    Thanks for the room cap info though. But it just seems like the ratings don't mean anything when I see the time ranges for cars being anything from 7.0 seconds - 10.0+ seconds within the same room.

    Because car class has nothing to do with anything.. And it shouldn't.. It's all about the rating of each car.
