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.

We've all been swindled once or twice at some point in this game, even the old vets of this game I'm sure. What's your favorite care you've lost to a "scammer" or just in an agonizing pinks loss? Mine would be my Ford GT, about a month into playing the game. A dude told me he was quitting the game and was giving away his cars before he did. Haha I laugh at myself every time I think about it! So what was your "one that got away"?

More recently the Subaru STI Coupe is my favorite, and I lost 2 of them this last turf. But at this point I could afford to buy and tune two replacements.
Lol I feel your pain, I had, keyword HAD, a maxed out BMW M3GT2 that I beat a maxed out Murcielago with. And I got cocky as hell after feeling the rush of winning my first pinks race.
So, in the lobby comes another BMW M3GT2 that challenged me for pinks. So I thought about for a few seconds, turned on my boosts so that I was sure to hit at least 6.8 seconds.
So the 2nd light hits, I let off the throttle for a perfect launch, damn dude win by .249
I was pissed off to no end, I was engaged ready to hit something. That burned the piss out of me. And what sucks even more is that it will take 9,776 gems to replace it.

Scratch that, my perfectly tune 1625 frs, used to beat everyone in the lobbies, then I lost it to a tC due to wheelspin
Mazda RX-7 GT Spec
Maxed Dodge Dart
Maxed Dodge SRT 4
I've lost a fair few.
