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.

Guess CIE Games only likes to take peoples money. I have read MULTIPLE complaints about users BUYING cash & gems for the game for only the game to continually force closing on them and not being able to play the game. And not recieving ANY refund for their purchases.
What a shame!
I'm somewhat able to play on my Galaxy Tab3, but it lags/stutters and can't seem to get a decent start and shift points.
I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling, closing and ending tasks to free up RAM, but even with 1gb available, it still closes.
I think we should get compensated for the funds lost on races that never happened(to both parties even if the other one had no issues). I think the game should know if a player's game crashes/freezes or loses connection thus making the current race invalid and refund any gem boost and/or money used prior to race starting.
