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.

    this is a rare occurrence that I see only affect you immortal. the ips that logged into your account are all local to you as well, and there is no data to show things leaving your account like that. do you have a list of everything you had?

    Okay Immortal, I sent you an email reply to your ticket explaining the situation as we see it, but for some clarity for others to show how far we actually do investigate, here is what we found, with some info removed for privacy sake.

    The account was created on 4/18. On a specific IP. For privacy I won't divulge it, but lets just say its.... ABC.DE.XX.XXX

    You lost 40 cars between 4/18 and 4/26. All the IPs that were logged on shared the same first sets of IP numbers, ABC.DE with the last 2 sets varying slightly. Which means they share the same network.

    On the 26th, you lost 11 cars. One of which was the FR-S R-Spec, which you admit, you lost. That was lost on the IP address ABC.DE.YY.YYY

    The other cars lost that day were:

    4 M3 GT2s
    3 Z4 GT3s
    2 Stella 930s
    1 128i Coupe

    these were lost while the IP address ABC.DE.YY.YYY was logged on... which is the same IP address that was logged on when the FR-S R-Spec was lost by you.

    So as we said, we do not see any evidence of a hacked account here.

    There are only two ways another person can gain access to a Racing Rivals account.

    1. Someone has direct access to the device or a device in which the account is loaded
    2. Someone has the Apple ID login information of the account owner.

    The security of the device and Apple ID login info is the sole responsibility of the account owner and the owner is responsible for any activity that occurs on that account. Unfortunately as far as our data is concerned anything that happens on the account is done by the account owner as we are unable to ascertain otherwise, that means that any cars or cash lost in high stakes races is irreversible as per our standard policy.

    If you find that your Apple ID has been compromised please contact Apple to help regain security of your account.

    Please make note for future reference the following points:

    • Do not give out your Game Center username or Game Center password.
    • Player to player transactions are done at players own risk.
    • Customer Service will never ask you for your Game Center password.
    • Update your password if you think someone else knows it. Use a combination of numbers and letters.
    • DO NOT buy other accounts/cars or accept free accounts/cars.

    Also, please choose a Game Center password that is unique and as difficult as possible for others to know.

    I have recently had something odd happen to my account. I woke up Wednesday morning Oct. 30 to find that all of my R class cars were gone as well as 4+ million in rrc. I posted about my issue on a Facebook page and someone replied that they looked into the matter. I was amazed when they came back and said that they found my cars on a specific ign which is just a bunch of letters and numbers. They also said that they could see where every pinks race was timed out. They managed to get 2 2nd gen 1st place subie sports 1 unwrapped subie sport and a 1st place Mazda rx7 that was rated 54, good luck finding an rx7 that close to stock. My cars ended up on ign 991s3074r0827 my ign is endz1130. Very odd how my cars can vanish without a trace but this random person is able to look up my ign and even my ip as well as the other ip and tell me that all my cars went to this account and then when i look up the ign there they are plain as day. Something very odd is happening and it seems like someone with direct access is able to take over accounts...

    Hi gu0ys, so playing away yesterday, when I got kicked off the game, thought wtf loved back n etc etc and helloooo,, all my cars money and gems were gne. Now idk if ty is a new hack or what, but it's not cool when you have spent hundreds of $$$ on a game. I looked n recent racers and only have level 2 players been played, so I am unsure of what I can do, so I submitted a report to cie games and are hoping they can help get my account back n order.

    I can't truly see myself or anyone els for that matter continue to play a game that the admins don't do anything about their customser/racers. I've sent emails regarding my situaiton and to this day i have yet to receive any reply from CIE nor RR admins. What gives?? If its truly as one of the admins stated on conversation that they can determine log in IP address then they will cleraly see that on Thusrday 11/6/14 (day i was hacked and all my cars,gems & money taken) they will see log in wasn't from where im located which is Miami dade/broward area.
