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.

Turf War Lobby Change

Some of you have noticed that over the weekend we changed turf lobbies a little. Now when you enter a Turf Lobby you are randomly placed on a server. This should help alleviate t he issue where you would see the same racers all Turf Weekend.

How did that work out for you Turf Racers?

    @brianmisfit975 multiplayer is more ment for a meet and greet. A nice out with the fellas type deal. Multiplayer lobby's are lobby rated but lobbies are not rate restricted. Allowing you to bring what you got. Grudge race. Unfortunate biggest drawback is lobby jumping and duel garage scammer. I suggest never pinking in multiplayer. Unless your really hip to all the scams.

    I'd suggest pinking in multiplayer only if you are in a maxed car, and are willing to lose. If you aren't willing to lose, don't risk it.
