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.

Unclear stipulation in tourney pinks

mcdoogle28mcdoogle28 Registered Users 2 Posts
I understand the concept of racing for pinks but, I the tournament mode where you have the option of paying gems to race and keep the pinks of the cars that you beat, it doesn't say that you'll lose your car if you lose. If had known that, I wouldn't have went there until I completely finished upgrading my car. Is there a way I can get my car back other than buying it back with 954 gems?

    I thought the same thing when I first saw the pinks tournaments. They need to clearly state that you will lose your car. All it says is that you can win up to 3 cars. It almost makes it sound like you get multiple chances to win a car. I know people who have been playing for a while should know better, but what about newcomers? It is a little misleading.
    You need to have it plainly stated that you will lose your car if you lose. I don't think there's any other way to get your car back unless you were hacked against, and you have screenshots.

    what's going on here? some kind of glitch? I only posted once. Then one time I see 2 posts, now I see 4 of the same post? Either the forums messed up or my internet connection/computer.
