All K-Drive races located throughout the Orb Vallis.

K-Drive Races are free roam missions for the Ventkids that are run by Boon in the Orb Vallis. The goal of each race is to pass through as many gates as possible while mounting a K-Drive and then reach the final gate within a time limit.

There are 22 races scattered across the Orb Vallis, however only 5 are active at a time. The active races refresh daily, at the same time as Daily Tribute and Standing limits. You can check the currently-available races by mounting your K-Drive and then opening the map.

Mechanics

Every gate grants 500 K-Drive Affinity and 5 seconds to the race time limit. The last gate gives 2500 K-Drive Affinity and 100 Ventkids Standing per gate in the race. Completing all 22 races will grant you the Race Ace achievement.
