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.

Some players can tell how fast my car is before I race them... How is this possible

    How accurate are they guessing?

    Either they look at your replays in the lobby (they play if you sit there without clicking on anyone) or they know how fast your car is by its presumed rating, since a car maxed to a certain lobby rating will typically run a specific time depending on the driver. Those are the only two ways I'd know. That, or there's a team stalking you and talking to each other about their races with you, lol.

    What about looking at the torque of a car in the showroom.... Can you tell the speed by looking at the torque?

    They can look at your weight/torque by viewing your profile in the lobby. But just guessing based on your rating or watching your replays seems more likely and much easier.
