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.

Sorry to say it, but Im a little disappointed...

So far this season the turf cars haven't been nearly as good as other seasons. Nothing R class. Even the new cars each week haven't been great, except the GNX. Which isn't terribly fast but a cool car still. Im really hoping V3 brings some improvements in this department!

    I gotta agree the turf cars recently have been shit! My team just pick and choose which turf cars we go for now- if they were all good cars we'd go for it every week! Think about it cie/glu you'd make more money if you had better cars to win to attract more top teams to go for it. Especially when some people spend 4000 gems or more on an event!

    Firebird was garbage, Camaro is not AS bad but not as ridiculous to drop as firebird was. The gnx wasnt a turf car but is decent. The r33 skyline is weak but the 93 wrx is a monster!

    I agree we need a explanation as to y these cars are so crap. I've only playing 4 around 4 months and I look back at all the previous turf cars and wish I had started at the beginning. This week my team is not turfing because of this and most likely going by previous turf where cars are repeated we won't be turfing for top 100 for sometime
