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.

** CLONE WARNING 2.0 **

eXxPLoSiOneXxPLoSiOn Registered Users 844 Posts
*** UPDATE ***
The admins at GLU issued a fix for this most recent duplication glitch. Please know that this does not mean that the prices on these cars will skyrocket now. There are still hundreds and in some cases thousands of new turf cars that have been injected into the community

For more information and updates please follow my blog at

***UPDATE END***

A while back I had made a post warning you guys about the cloning that was going on. That original clone had been fixed and a new one has emerged that has been going on for a week or so now. Almost every single turf car has been cloned into the hundreds. When I say turf car I mean all versions from the 1st place versions with gold or light weight carbon rims to the top 5 or even top 25 versions. The Blue Pagazini Zondas are selling for $5.00 right now on Facebook groups. These cars used to command any where from $25.00-$45.00.

Do not over pay to these guys that are trying to take advantage of you, the prices they are asking are where they are because the cloning has gotten so out of hand that the market on eBay and the Facebook groups is saturated with people trying to make a buck on something they are replicating for free.

If you need more information or if you need to speak with me please do so via my Facebook page,

Best of luck to all of you.

    My advice is to always make a contingency when buying turf cars , ask if they are buy back, and when car is sent you'll check garage for a "ghost" if you see one you'll reverse deal .. If the seller doesn't agree then I'd skip the deal , wouldn't waste a bunch of time trying to ruin their rep or anything just go on about your way , simple enough no hard feelings

    Clones don't have buybacks. @Hello Hi Hi

    Legit t1-t5 = ALL rims & aeros & paint locked
    Legit t25 = All aeros & paint locked

    Clone t1-t5 = Rim & Paint locked & aeros unlocked
    Clone t25 = Everything unlocked except paint (Dino r32 unlocked everything)

    the truth is clones affect the groups of racers who put in countless hours and gems turfing to achieve that turf or prize. Its a great feeling knowing u have a rare car, but now, the market is flooded with clones u cant even compete with their prices. wished cie never introduced this game to android lmao

    Ummm...can't blame it all on Android...there are glitches and hacks for iOS too...pretty sure I heard the last round of clones before this one was due to an iOS glitch...please correct me if I'm wrong @STR8_MENACE

    @STR8_MENACE



    That's not exactly correct, first season of rr under cie games the turfs werent aero locked. They started locking them because of the first round of cloners. When glu bought the game.



    @eXxPLoSiOn can you confirm this for everyone?

    If I could say it 100% knowing that as a fact I would but I can't. There were 1st wave vehicles that were replaced by CIE at the time when they were still in charge. These vehicles that were replaced would ALSO have their bodies unlocked. So there is no definitive way to know 100% what is a clone and what isn't a clone.
