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.

OG turfer the gen 1 turfers remember this

The OG First gen turfers should remember this. OG turf was 4 events vs 3 events. OG turf gave points for ppl who chickened out. They got rid of the ability to gain points from chicken because it was abused. However self crushing has replaced the points abuse. The new system is suppose to limit this but not effective as it should be. Since self crush exists still and is widely abused i am in favor of chicken points being revived. If you chicken or refuse to race on a straight race you give up full points. If you refuse on cash race give up half points. Refuse on pinks race lose 25% points.

    I'm not fan of this. Only cause I chicken a lot. I drive very nice cars. So for me to get a race I want. It usually takes a few minutes if it happens at all cause I have 50 people in pos campaign cars or b class evos that for some reason feel I want to waste engine damage to run their pos. Wrong. Now I just chicken and tell them to kick rocks. Race who I want to race.

    Where's the old interface?

    The likey dislikey background music?

    R Class Jet (Had been Released for free in recent!), tC GT-Spec (Maybe soon in crates....) , Falcon V8 (Already in crates. Smh.)?

    The time where I bought Z28 for $10? Maxed T1 Copo for $30 each?

    Miss 'em!

    (BTW what's the point of my post? :worried::grin: )
    GTR, GT-R!
