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.

Ok, something's wrong

First of all, I haven't updated. Now let me tell you what just happened. My best time prior to today was 10.7 in my 70 Challenger. I normally shift 3 times. I just took my car in to race and it shot off the line like a scared ape. The shifter stuck twice and I had to keep tapping it to get it unstuck. My time was 10.5 with no perfect shifts. It was shifting so fast my fingers wouldn't keep up. I'm going back to try again, I just wanted to come over and ask if anyone had similar experiences

    They made the transmission 5 gears and now I had mine setup with no stress. With the new update it is now getting stress. Terrible update.

    i had the same set up. The devs were aware of it and doesn't want anybody getting free cash. They want people to pay for it. You didn't get much cash from it, but still.

    Ok after I raced it a few times, I'm down to 10.1 and taking damage like a sinking ship. This update suks.

    Yep, I went from -1 engine stress to 39.5. I still have 14 other cars to use. It's just that this one was my favorite because it was my only car without any engine stress so I was able to race with it forever.
