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 wondered.. is it better to buy crates in a row..or buy and wait a while? 2 in a row or 3? IDK. Post your opinion. Tell me your results. I wanted to create this post to promote max results to crate buyers (us!)

-dont have to wait in between purchases
-bundles are better
There are some interesting behaviors about these crates though I've discovered. The first is that after buying a certain amount of any crate color, you no longer win free rims anymore. There is a graphic on the crates that says, "Free in 7 purchases" and those are for a set of rims, but this eventually goes away, so no more free rims. The other behavior is a recent one since turf cars were added to crates. When a turf ends, that turf car is removed and the next turf car is added. I don't know how soon after turf this happens, but you can win the next turf car Sunday evening even before the crate graphics are updated to show the new turf car. I stumbled upon this by accident when I bought 10 bronze crates after turf ended a few weeks ago and started winning multiple vipers, which had never been in the bronze crates prior.
