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.

Class action suit
Monkey business

I spoke with a law firm, a class action suit will be filed. The engineers of this game/app promote scammers and cheaters. They allow stronger cars to compete with much slower cars. New people lose their campaign cars. It just so happens, u have to pay real $$ to continue, even if your lucky enough to win the class car in a pinks, you're still require to pay real $$ to finish campaign. If you want a fair race, you need to join a team, and partake in "turf war". Where once again, in order to be competitive, you need to spend real money. This app is also riddled with bugs and glitches. It crashes, lags, ties, DNF's, and scammers use them all. The community is the largest group of scammers in the app industry! The game company knows of all these issues, but do nothing to stop them. After showing attorneys what happens, and then compare to other apps that have servers and online competition, Racing Rivals is the biggest scam out there. Cie/GLU are thieves, they can easily stop the cheating and the scamming, but it grows their bottom line.....there are laws out there that protect consumers, stay tuned.....it is a lengthy process.
