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.

New update is bad

Anyone else think the new update sucks. Glu got greedy I mean 750$ (38.8k gems) in gems for a Ferrari Enzo that I bet they made a class and the ferraris in the showroom are a lot where are the cash prices for them? Next the 3 offers with the 98Skyline crap, M1 Procar and corvette gt2 car are just a lot. You can win 10k or 100k from one race. 1.1mil and a corvette though and all crates for 50 bucks isn't terrible but I'd pay at most for that 25 USD. Comment what you think about the update.

    It costs a lot to be located in Silicon Valley. You're paying for it.

    Just curious, why would you spend money on a free game? I see this all the time and I just don't get it.

    People are spending $100's on a free game? Is it just to advance faster in the game?

    I've been playing for a long time. I have spent ZERO dollars on the game and I am just as competitive as the next guy. I just don't trade, race for pinks, or large sums of rrc. If there were not so many cheats and hackers, I would join a team and turf, race for pinks etc.

    Yesterday I ran about 12 races. Of the 12, I won 11. Of the 11 wins, 9 of the opposing players used the tie glitch. Have not played since. (Just FYI)

    Its called EGO. Lots of narcissists who think they're awesome because they bought their win instead of actually racing for it.

    Racers Club is a great idea, but 38.8k gems is kinda expensive to reach

    The gems should be at like 4000 or something but 38.8k really?

    @Fugyea you are not competitive as everyone else. Your a bottom feeder and your in the fing way. Especially when people like you are in turf, don't money race, don't pinks, just want to do a billion free races and burn our cars up, while you struggle to be on a gem team. Your even worse than that, you sit it a multiplayer lobby and free race. Bottom feeders have no say here

    @Grantlee235 just don't like when people say it's a "free app" yea it's free to campaign. And basically fart around. But if you wanna be any good. You gotta put some in. Doesn't have to be paychecks, but your gonna spend something. I also dont like someone complains what someone else spend their $$ on. My $$ not yours mfer. Just cause my vice is rr and his vice is gay porn. You pay monthly to watch guys bf, I pay for gems to pinks. No difference. I don't hate on your vice @Fugyea ;)

    Interesting Post. I simply play the game the way it was meant to be played. Other than turfs. I do not turf because there are way too many cheats in this game. Occasionally I will money race, but nothing large. Like I said, I just play the game the way it was meant to be played.

    DWD, if you don't like that, I cant help the way you feel. It wont change the way I play though....
