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.

Beware New Bet Glitch That Steals Money

So basically there is a glitch where someone challenges you and then you raise the bet and then they re-raise while doing an extra step (which I won't mention to avoid it being exploited) where it times you out and you lose the money that was bet without even racing. Always challenge first and try not to keep the betting going on for too long. This may apply for pinks as well however I have not seen any proof nor confirmation about it. Never trade with random people in lobbies! Always find trusted members who have plenty of vouches! Watch out my fellow racers and enjoy this great game.

    It ain't a glitch... If you raise the bet they put in, that means you have raised and out money down, so if they raise you and you drop out * chicken * you lose the money you but down, basic gambling rules... Don't you know how to play poker? You raise...You fold, you lose money... Not a glitch in any form

    He's not saying the people chicken out bud. He's saying the bets are raised and then the guy who glitches to get you money does a certain thing so you can't even race him.

    If it's like poker then why when I betted a guy 10k he never left the line I won he never showed a time and took the 10k I betted? And have pics of the results.

    Beware, new glitch that disqualifies you and if your car is "too fast" it will disqualify you and give it to the other player. Happened to me 3 times tonight. So I recommend not being fast in a racing game. It will take your pride and joys...

    ^^^^this literally just happened to me. Did you use gem boost? I read on here in the iOS thread that it happens a lot with that. E-mailed CIE to see if they can get me my car back, it's bs if you ask me.

    right now I constantly look for issues such as this. I have not found a cash exploit that triggers auto losses in a race. We are having some issues with bets and alot of work going on on our end to finish the DQ revamp (due out next week). This may be referencing an older exploit that we have since closed
