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.
Updates just gone live and already 5 reasons why it sucks...
So I'm now on the new update using a iPhone 5 and it is ridiculously horrible... Here's why... 1. Takes for ever to load the game and loading something as simple as a car in your garage 2. Textures overlaps , these are very common... For example speeding up a install and gem speed up and 2 cars could be overlapped in your garage. 3. It is awfully laggy in a race each light causes a lag spike that lasts for half a second 4. The green light shows 0.100 at least after it should... My rt is ALWAYS 0.020 or less and is now 0.150* thanks to the green light showing late 5. The lag spikes in selecting a racer or daily challenge This is just the beginning and so far it shows as a awful update

I am also on an Iphone 5. If anything, this should not be the device that have problems running anything. Something really needs to be done quickly, or you will lose a lot of your player base.
