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.

DOUBLE ACCOUNT PINKS RACING BEWARE!!!

    Its unfortunate, but you have to watch to make sure he doesn't leave the lobby and come back. Another tip: Some racers with one account will have two identical looking cars, one faster than the other, you beat the slower then they bring in the faster car. Same name, same spelling, one account, two of the same exact looking car.

    That's a lot of effort to cheat at a video game lol.

    It's not cheating in the eyes of the developers, I see it as a weak player though. this is why i do not pink in the public lobby

    ugh, dummy me, had this happen to me again last night. i guess i didnt learn my lesson the first time. this is so frustrating.. i think im going to stop pinking all together in the lobbies. people just dont seem to be happy unless they can cheat and scam people.. another life lesson for me though.

    I don't pink at all unless I know my car can compete with a boosted maxed version of the other players.

    Yeah, thats what i should have been thinking, but wasn't, got caught up in "actual" racing and not thinking about the whole scamming thing.. oh well, another life lesson..

    I only pinks in turf. It's the safest bet if you're confident in your tune.

    Also in Turf, the ratings of the room is accurate. There is no "joining friends" with a 1670 car into a 1650 lobby.
  • Koaleader171Koaleader171 Registered Users 457 Posts
    Yes but now we have civics at 1645 running 4 seconds. Even turf is no longer sacred.....such a shame.

    Had this happen to my maxed z28 with crate glow rims. Just gotta be careful

    It just sucks that these people can't play fair. Some of us genuinely like to race. Me and my friend motor simply stayed in a lobby for hours once just trying to see who's garage was best lol. The game was meant for things like that not these disgusting little d and c class cheating you out of pinks

    Always be careful when someone all of a sudden befriends you then dm you to pink. I just dump them off my friends list. Usually they followed you down in a lower lobby with their car that is way above yours.

    Yeah Kimmy. They wait till they see your icon show busy then leave and return in their faster car so you don't notice.

  • slaptrane1slaptrane1 Registered Users 26 Posts
    I had it happen to me before in my made furai
  • Koaleader171Koaleader171 Registered Users 457 Posts
    Yep. Gotta be careful of it. Like I've said, if you have any sort of doubt don't pink. If they race you in a stock or close to stock r class, then ask for pinks, don't do it. They are almost always double accounting.
