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.

    I updated the game yesterday evening, and ever since my reaction times have been way off. I.e. Perfect launch with a rt of .200+. Have lost a few cars due to this. I don't know if it is the update or someone just hacking the system. My first thought was hack because I lost two cars to the same person, but then I tried another person and same result. Please let me know what I need to do about this or what yall are doing about it.

    Thank you

    FOr those with iPhone 6+ loading issues, can you confirm that your client has been updated to 3.2. Go to your account screen and scroll all the way to the bottom to see your version number.

    [RR] Ryyst[RR] Ryyst Registered Users, Moderators 3,814 Posts
    Okay, so when the game says "initializing", the game is basically checking to see if your device can "talk" to our servers which is why its the first step. If it's hanging on that, that means its trying but is unsuccessful. Which usually means there is a bad connection.. cellular or wi-fi. The odd thing about this is that it seems to be only iPhone 6+ users that are experiencing this specific issue, and not all 6+ users.

    The 6+ devices we test on all work fine. So we think it might be some setting.

    FOr those having this issue can you check to see if you have "Cellular Data" turn on? Settings > Cellular then scroll until you see Racing Rivals.

    What Happened? I have a Samsung Galaxy S5. I recently updated to Lollipop yesterday. I dowloaded the updated version of Racing Rivals today. I have encountered this error constantly, After every race is done the game automatically restarts. After I cross the finish line the racing recap with the stats do not appear. It just restarts. The game will be updated with the money I won from the race even the damage after it restarts

    Device: Samsung Galaxy S5
    Operating system: Android 4.4.2

    The "Error loading car (36)" has been solved, the game gets to the garage, but the screen on the garage looks a little dark, and I try to race and it stays in the "loading race screen".

    I have a Sony Xperia Z I don't use because the screen is broken and it works only the bottom part of the screen. I managed to connect my Racing Rivals account to it via wi-fi because it doesn't have data, and I can enter the racing lobbies with no problems withe that phone, and the Xperia operating system is Android 4.3, I don't know if that has to do with something.

    Please help, because I can't obviously play with a broken screen on my Xperia and can't get to racing lobbies with my Galaxy S5.
