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.
Teams preparing for turfs seem to build lots of the same car. It would be awesome if you could by duplicates of any car in your garage. For instance, the dart turf day the other weekend, I had to buy and separately build a few cars. Which took a crap ton of time. But if there was a "Buy Duplicate" option where you buy the exact car that's in your garage same mods and everything already built. Whether it's a $100k or gems or whatever. Cie still gets there money's worth but players can cut down on building fleets for pinks races. It's kind of like the option where CIE let's you buy back whatever car you lose in pinks but proactive instead of reactive.

my opinion. if it cuts down the building time more people will race and use gem to boost their car. $$$$$$$ in cie pocket.
