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.

> Yeah I'm done. Shame and why hasn't carbonated commented yet ?
Well..I guess it's a take it or leave it scenario. Have you ever heard the saying...baggers cannot be choosers ?.. Unfortunately it's reality. They decide. It's their business after all.
Sorry. Some of the technical aspects of how the game runs have improved under Carbonate, but seriously, the fun is being removed. I have not played SD this week. Can't be bothered. No Point. I quite t100 team and am just playing gem team. I suspect I may just quite full stop soon.
Thanks for helping me quit my addiction though guys. You probably did me a favour.
Was literally doing one race scoring 100 points and getting 80 gems

No, I don't like you. I don't have a reason you would comprehend.
on so many times i race a player for the first time and win, but r.r said i race them once before and it cheats me out of points.
i quit one of my teams because i will not be doing turf untill they get this fixed. i have sent emails to r.r. thru game play and thru here.
got tones of screen shots and vid.

ANY, Turbo, & RWD turfs are getting old man. Just try and have some fun, be a little under-prepared like the good old days.
We may need to adjust our minimums this week. No one's dying.
No one likes change. The game, as it was, had gotten stale - Carbonated is shaking things up - drastically. More "shaking" is coming I'm sure. Best bet is to just roll with it. The mechanics of the game (line up, time the launch, tap the shift, hope you win) hasn't changed. When they change that aspect of the game, if they ever do, then it'll get real interesting.
