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.

Turf Trap?

OMGJUSTGOOMGJUSTGO Registered Users 4 Posts
In turfs I have no option to reject the race. If a driver challenges me I can only race him, or forfeit which give that player points. If I have raced someone already and I know there is no way to beat them, why would I want to continue damaging my engine? Now this player that I cannot reject, continues inviting me over and over to the point that I cant even get into another race. I am stuck constantly giving him points or leaving the room. Is this a glitch in my game, or programmed?

    That's the problem. I cant chicken. I have to either race, or let the time run down and forfeit.. I don't have the chicken option in turfs.

    When you chicken in turf they get the points to, that's the way it's set up.

    I get it the chicken out button off and on In your case just let the timer time out. Then hopfully gain your points on the weaker end of your food chain as it has really become. If you chicken and let them have points oh well.

    I have seen it both ways, at times there is no red, chicken button. I have been able to get around it before, but clicking accept, then on the bet/race screen, hitting chicken out there. But it appears that is also missing now.

    Timeout is about the only option.

    The issue before was that people were challenging their friends and chickening constantly to build up points. by removing the chicken button it makes you not wanna do that to damage your car. Also, the chicken button does show up but only after a bet has been placed.
