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.
So i heard the new update you can take out NOS?
Will that change the values of all cars? Good way or bad way?
Also, are there any graphic changes or cars added as well?

That said, for this update we had to re-export ALL assets, and some really old ones are borking. We're tackling them one-at-a-time.
> Game crashes every now and then
Hmm, cars haven't been touched - all cars run the same on 6.3 vs 6.4.
We've seen a lot of the crashes, mostly related to broken assets, which we're fixing. Should be stabilizing over the next day as we find and fix what's breaking (which are just server pushes)
(This is new to me, btw - will look into it)
The problem with new players is that, for the most part, even they fall in love with the game during/after tut, and they have a sweet ride and all that, they get destroyed in mp because the game trained them on how to race wrong. So they punished, rather severely, for playing exactly the way the game taught them to play.
You guys, the hardened vets, said "f how the game wants me to play, I'll go online and learn the real way".. you figured that out and have been kicking ass since. Most new players won't bother going online to figure it out. They just toss the game out, saying it's rigged, or impossible to win without paying, etc.
So the new tach is to get them to the same point as you guys without requiring heavy online research. And eventually they do - the tach training wheels come off, the notches go away, and you better know your car and the shift points to be competitive. But, even if you forget, the dyno will still tell you once you've found those points.
Does that make sense? Unless you really enjoy crushing noobs (*cough* .. ), the whole point is to get more new players into the fray and have them become good players quicker.

Amen...
Either you fix it or else tutor it.
I,do have one thing though, now that I can get perfect rt, when I get .000 rt in tournament, it disqualifies me, which is annoying too.
Well thanks for what you guys are trying to do!
