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.

100 Million Dollar Call Out to C Y R U S

Next time you have a player coucil it may be wise to get actual racers on there. Not a youtuber, some ex racers, a guy who pretty much only races for wr's and a guy who doesn't even race, just exploits the game for his on personal gain. Any actual racer would have ripped this update apart at the coucil. They would have had nothing but negative things to say about this version versus the other version..


I see you constantly talking crap about the people who took part in the Players Council. One of the main things you always harp on is that we don't race according to you. I'd like to call you out to either CTR or the new HotRod that was just released in a best of 10 race off. I'll put 100 million on the line and I would like for you to do the same. I'll stream the races and then post the full video on my YouTube channel.

What do you say?

    @eXxPLoSiOn I have to agree with you... you gave your opinion and a valid one and in my opinion the update isn't so bad on my device. @c y r u s Any real racer would slate the game? That makes no sense. It's an opinion you can't change an opinion

    Now that I've been advised (thank you dwdtuning) - the CTR is the Honda Civic Type R, and the HotRod is more than likely one of the Hot Wheels cars (bone shaker perhaps)?

    I have two devices one running the older version of the game and one with the newer. Let me know what version your on and we can link up for some fun runs if you want? I have a 1st place CTR on gold rims so I don't have any type of weight drop but it will hold it's own pretty well. I'm always down to run some CTR!

    Wow guess you guys have been looking for me, Well here I am. So it's seems you took what I said to heart exxplosion. Sorry to hear that.

    Would racing me validate you in some way? Would it make what I said a little less true? You think I took jabs at the entire council but if you read what I said, the only jab I took was at you.

    Ex players... ya a few of them are ex racers who don't actively race in the community anymore. Nothing wrong with that!

    A youtuber aka Pigpen. He mainly races to post videos to his you tube page. His page is very helpful to a lot of racers and beneficial to many. Rather than type all that up, instead I summed it up by saying youtuber.

    A guy who tunes and races for wr's aka prodigal. Not knocking the guy at all for it. I've raced him many times and yes he's very fast.

    And then the exploit... Yes this was a jab. You exploit the game in many ways. You helped with the cloning that devalued so many cars. You've scammed people for real money. Exposed glitches. You brought to light the farming glitch that flooded the game with rrc. And yet you post here and on your website about how we should take it easy on the company and how they try for us and how we should respect what they offer and so on.

    See when you play both ends of the field your bound to piss people off. You can't have it both ways and not expect someone to point it out. Sorry if that pisses you off to the point of a call out on a forum. Thanks for the notoriety.

    When I said actual racers I meant the majority of us who turf week in and week out. Those of us who tune, build and race every week. Those of us who see all the areas that need improving as we experience them on a daily basis. Those of us who have, and still do, race with top teams each and every week.

    If you played the game that was released on Monday at the council meeting how could you not rip it apart? If this is what you got a preview of, how could you possibly back it? It's a mess. It's a horrible attempt at a generic racing game that's been done a hundred times over. What RR brought was originality. A game that set itself apart from the others. What we have now is a whole lot of "more of the same"

    Sorry but 100mill rrc doesn't scare me or send me trembling. Racing you doesn't prove anything. Anyone who has raced with or against me knows what I'm capable of in the game. Don't need to prove anything to anyone. Sorry if I echoed what so many others have said.

    As for blitz... he opened his mouth first with the name calling and stupid comments. So what I said, I don't regret. if you don't like people talking crap, maybe you should keep your mouth shut

    I really only like racing max rating vehicles, I don't have many that are tuned down. I guess I could ask Daniel for some setups but most require no nitrous so won't have many if any to race :/
