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.

Fox, What was the though behind making an unpopular Gem car like the Ford GT a TW event. This going to limit a lot of the teams from participating. Unless y'all plan on giving everyone 5 maxed GT it will be a dead night of racing. I would suggest not making A gem car a required event car in the future

    I have to agree. I don't see many Ford GT's anywhere.

    And why does new added cars always have to be gem?

    different restrictions different groups. The idea is to give everyone a chance regardless of cars, if we always did the popular cars what would be the fun in it? Some people love the Ford GT...like that guy from Top Gear

    My son (10 yr old) spent his earned money on gems to buy a gt to help the team, well the stock lobby had one guy.. He has been spending money on upgrades and has yet to find a lobby with anyone in it..

    The idea was simple, how many people went out and spent gems to get a ford gt, they got ya again.

    I understand the marketing idea behind it but I did not really care for it either. I didn't like the 128i version either; just not ANY verity to the rooms. I think it would be much better if you restricted it to 1 make of car, that way you could have up to a hand full of different cars to race.
