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.

To give you an idea of where my head is at: Boosts make the game feel like pay to win. If you assume similar skill if you're not boosting and your opponent is, you are very unlikely to win.
Racer club is way to high I never even get 1k gems it's ridiculous
Also, add the option to remove WEIGHT REDUCTION
Upgrade color needs to contrast, not blend.
Performance crates - new car each week... No new accessories ever?
Higher player levels with higher rewards. 250 is nice but 500 is better. Treat those with longevity in the game better.
Time to increase the rrc paints and rims, little stale.
Keep the racing stripes when painted!
Two tone paints?
Basically more ways to personalize a car. So far 65 colors in game... Far too many of them look alike.
No, I don't like you. I don't have a reason you would comprehend.
First of all I would like to thank you for listening to the RR community.
I would like to inform you that it was a great idea to do the test track.
I will leave here my suggestions to improve the experience with the game and from now on I apologize for my English, because I will be translating all this into your language
There is a big complaint from the RR community regarding our time spent playing the game.
Surely everyone would rather spend their available time running on turf or multiplayer which is more fun, spending boost or RRC and consequently generating profit for you
And the most boring part is undoubtedly the time to improve the car, we spend a lot of unnecessary time with stagio 1 stagio 2 and Pro.
Here are my suggestions that I believe will greatly improve the game without significant loss of income for you and will optimize our time:
1º - Possibility to install the PRO parts directly without having to install stage 1 and stage 2, in this mode the amount to be paid in RRC would be added and paid only the total value of all stages to the PRO, same sum for the installation time.
2º- In the car's upgrade screen could appear the car rating and new rating that it would be with the change of some part of the car in the same way that is shown today when we change a part / Example: Engine damage +1.70 / Power +4.69 / Weight -2.25 / Torque +5.07 / Shift Speed 0.40 / Installed stage1 / and finally rating = + B1631 or for less -B1629 or put that information anywhere else on this same screen
3º- Improve the accuracy of the rating, because when we open the game shows the rating 1668 and when we enter the upgrade screen and leave without changing any part, simply the rating changes alone for less getting 1667
4º - Today when I enter track with a car that has the rating 1668 appears on the screen = TRACK: H043, you could put it like this = TRACK: H043 / LOBBY: 1668
5º - Inform and make it clear to the new runners that the car can be assembled to run in lobbys 1630/1635/1640/1645 .... and so on. It took me 1 month to figure it out, I almost gave up on the game, with this explicit information it is sure to increase the amount of new customers for you.
6º - add a new intermediate room between lobby 1668 and Max, for example a new lobby 1672
Let me know if it will be possible to make any of these changes or not, for technical or financial reasons
Thank you for your attention

Boost is part of the game and should stay that way kind of point of racing you never know what the other player has. Players crying about boost are the same ones crying about anything costing gems they want everything for nothing if everything is free what supports the cost of the game? I know I have a ton of boost will there be a gem refund if you remove boost?
