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.

That's not possible. I was personally in that room for at least 2 hours. I switched rooms a couple of times after, but played until the actual Event was over.. Sorry you missed us.
What a great way to keep customers around another year. Way too much hype for such a let down.
Now its all well and good we were robbed of our shot so the least you can do is give us an honest and factual explanation as to how and why this happened.
Please don't come with the BS story of you cant choose the lobby/server as it is YOUR lobby/server by design and you have full control over it.....
so at the end of the day, I would all that somebody from RR responds to this because they have a bunch of big spenders very upset with them who want some sort of answer.
