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.

I can't open my crates I received this turf cause the game crashes on my everytime it loads at the shipyard or before it
please fix this in the next update that will be released soon
it'll be great if you let me know btw tag me as i get quoted and don't get tagged
After about 5 tries, it works. Even then, though, it can and will randomly crash while you are opening crates. I'd refrain from buying any crate bundles if I were you (I did and it crashed in the middle of opening the bundle...lost out on the remaining crates, and the 1k gems).
Many thanks / props to Glu and it's staff - I know you guys have been busting your @sses since this update came out trying to correct issues, run damage control, etc. It's a thankless job (I know, I've been in tech / customer support....NEVER again), but to those of us that have been on "that side of the counter", we understand, and appreciate the efforts. Thanks!

I got a request for the next update. Can you guys set the default graphics to the 5.3 ver , please? So when u download the game from the Play Store, log in and what you see is the 5.3 graphics...put the 6.0 graphics in the settings so players with higher end phones can turn it on all the time. And players with older phones can still access the game.
Good job and keep up the good work !
My in game name is lid drafter 487
samsung ellipse 7

Also can you try making a new account? Delete the game, redownload and restart and see if you can load and make a new account.

But a regular car (no matte, under glow, rims, headlights) is much better ( few laggy but not like a 5.3 )
2. The launch delay, I mean like when I release the pedals right on 1st light, but its kinda delay ( late 1st light)
I think if that's fixed, its will be awesome!! Also the graphic lol
