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.

So it seems that the only car people ever take out is the slowest, most worthless car. Is this a reaction to the glitching? People don't want to lose their best cars to racing rivals malfunction? Or are they hoping that someone with a really good car will foul against them?
It gets kind of annoying though because I take my best car out there expecting to have a challenge, or to pick up on a nice car.

    I completely agree pal. I think that people are so terrified of using their Zonda's, Bentley's and GT-R's because of these issues that tournaments have been suffering recently. I have screenshot upon screen shot of glitches, DNF, disconnected etc that i dont really want to risk even my fastest car in tournaments. I've sent screenshots of every single race to support.

    Hopefully they will reach a point where the tournaments are pretty solid and people only have to worry about fouling or bad driving.

    Some day.......

    What I regret are the times I have legitimately lost cars in tournaments. Maxed Bentley, Maxed 787b, Maxed Pandora, Maxed 75 Stella, almost Maxed Zonda and Maxed Alpine. I really miss those cars :(
    No glitches those times, just bad driving lol
    Although I have won some nice cars -- Honda NSX RR and Honda HSV-010. I'm very careful about pink slipping with those.

    Well guys I don't know if the new update fixed it. But the reason a lot of those people did that was because of the thing where you had stock scion FRS and jettas and crap running 4 seconds. Or some where even running .004 or -.002
