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.

Free Honda Civic and 4 Tokens. The strategic trap!

Yep, you read the title right. It says "strategic trap!"
If you have opened the free tokens, you would have noticed that all of those tokens contained "blueprints" and not anything else at all.
This was a trap to make you feel how "easy" it was to get the prints and force your unconscious self to use gems for buying more crates for getting those last prints to complete the car!!
Good move RR
When I received 4 Honda S2000 Rivals Edition blueprints in a row from free tokens, I realized it was a trap but this motivation of being "lucky" was too strong and even the logical analysis couldn't stop me from buying that 5th crate to complete that car. and guess what? As soon as I clicked on "Buy using 120 gems" Bang! Pink Headlights! Took me 8 more crates filled with Paints and Wheels to finally get that "5th Print"

Not tested the Honda yet, but would have rather liked gems over 5 crates and a B class car
