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.

Race with High Caution against Dragking 7

Race with High Caution against Dragking 7, if you challenge him to a pinks race when you know you can beat his under graded Dodge Challenger, he declines, then comes back to you 2 minutes later and challenges you to a pinks race, you think using the same car, but its not, he has changed it to a maxed Dodge Challenger same colour as before and beats you then you abusive names afterwards which I didnt understand because it was me that lost a car to a cheat. I have reported this so called racer, but again Racing Rivals have done nothing.

    I see this everyday. The funny thing is most people come into a lobby wit some kind of advantage. Higher rating than the lobby is the number one. It happens. Is it ok for the guy with the slower car to go and get a faster car and come back to beat the guy who just beat him? That alone is not a scam. Example. Lobby and car racing is 1630. A guy comes in with a 1662 lancer. He is smoking guys all over the lobby. You then bail and get a car that is 1664 and pink his car and win. Is that a scam? I see this all day long.
    The best practice is taking the games advice. You never know what's under the hood of another car. Best solution. Make the entire game bracket racing style. Then it's all reaction time period. Guys with head starts and having to catch up would be nuts.
    A scam sounds more like this. " giving away free car, closing my account." Or " giving away this car to every 5th challenge" etc. etc.
    simply switching cars isn't scamming, it's just switching cars.
    Double accounts are even worse exploiters. Watch out for them. Even worse than the car switcher.
    When in doubt, chicken out.
