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.
How do you tune for Turf now???
This is my biggest issue since the change in lobby ratings... I've accepted the fact that things changed and I now have to retune over 500 cars. But I wish someone would answer why in the hell the ratings for multiplayer lobbies are still under the old system!
You want us to accept the change, spend time and RRC to retune everything but you don't give us an option to verify cars' rating except during turf or showdown??? This is asinine! Is there someway of doing this I'm not aware of?

I don't doubt its existence, everyone has been saying it. Using multiplayer to guess what lobby I'm in sucks anyway as even if you race 4 people if 3 are lobby jumpers you still don't know. I rarely see the bots.
Test track better freaking tell us what lobby the car is rated at. Better yet tell us in the garage. We get to see how much HP and weight a part purchase will add before buying it... Why can't it tell us what the rating and lobby will be before installing.
Glu flipped the lobby's upside down on us, give us this to help us deal with it.
As for tuning now. I tried dropping parts to get them in the right lobby but I didnt have the time to get them done before turf was done. So to hell with this game. I just stop by here once a week to see if they have fixed any of this crap.
