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.

They'd rather close a game than fix it. Most useless game developers ever.

They can't handle the BS bot threads, we should have known they couldn't handle actually working for a living
Didn't even know there were any RR bots, and I'm in RR hack groups on Facebook... I've also never had any problems/run-in's with botters or hackers.
I doubt I'll be playing RR again since my iPod Touch is too outdated, and on my Galaxy S2 it worked once, and now it keeps crashing on start up (I've reinstalled it a numerous amount of times...) I think it's because I installed an OS update and now it has more processes running filling up the RAM and there is nothing I can do about it. -.- I've regretted installing that update ever since I done it. But mobile gaming is for faggots anyway.
The good thing about RR Facebook, it gave me something to do on the PC, almost a Nitto replacement... Almost.
Racing RAVILS = 1.very gay name like come on its 2015 really????
2.upgrades ok well unlike 1320 lets just call them 123 or ABC yeah thts GREAT no greddy no actual names for any parts lmao
3. Since when does under glow makes a car lighter?
4. Let's go to the UCL and buy a car o wait THERE'S NOT ONE! But wait NITTO 1320 had one
5. Hey guys lets make a private racing room for the team waaaiiit tht not in RR either dang 1320 had them
6. Well what else lets go in a room and find a mod crap you can't do tht either which means you can't vote for your favor ppl to be mods either
7. Let's go in a room and watch our friends race ha thts a joke cause you would be wait ten hrs for tht or miss it because so sends you a race
8. Hey guys wht about a bracket race no h2h dang racing RAVILS can't do tht either
9. Wait we can do one thing keep hoping they will realize this game will never be anywhere near as good as NITTO 1320 LEGENDS
10. This game is 0% legit but hope y'all stay 1320% LEGIT
The game is already two years old, they could just leave it alone and just keep releasing content as a distraction to make money for another year before everybody gets tired of it and leaves, by then they'd be working on a new project to make dough.
They don't give a shit about the game, they could fix it and make it last longer, but they'd rather have the quick $.

We don't want Nitto back as a company, they are still there making money hand over fist off of Racing Rivals. We just want back the older games that were driven by desire to give the enthusiast community something great while fostering positive brand image, without exploiting all of the worst aspects of modern mobile gaming for all that it's worth. I mean, RR could be way way worse. But it could also just as easily be exponentially better.
