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.

Anyone know whats going on with the Ford GT Special car?

Yesterday morning I logged in and there was a Ford GT car for 100 gems. So I gathered up some gems and went to purchase the special car and it was the M3 again. All day the Ford GT never showed up again. Then, this morning, the Ford GT is the special car and is $1.99. Is this a common issue for anyone?

    I think Glu changed the game behavior. It used to be 100 gems for new accounts if you didn't buy the m3 first for 80 gems. Now new accounts have to pay for those starter packs.

    We are actually looking into this reports right now. I do not have an ETA on this issue right now but we are taking a look at what has been happening with the starter packs.

    I have been reporting this problem since last week (19/3), was eventually told that the only car on starter offer is BMW M3
    As of today the Ford GT offer has vanished from my showroom.

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. It never showed up again for me So I am Ford GT-less. Would have been a great buy.

    Would love to see RR have specials every two weeks for a car for gems.
