Formula Star boasts the highest Top Speed at its maximum momentum, perfect for the straight courses present in Drag Race stadiums.
Formula Star can shine in this challenge as it can reach its top speed and maintain it, especially when buffed with Boost and Top Speed power-ups.

In Drag Race, your machine's Top Speed is the most important statistic for winning. Choose a machine that excels in this area. Equally important is Boost, which determines your acceleration. A high Boost stat will help you reach your top speed faster, giving you a critical advantage right from the start.
A lighter machine accelerates and recovers speed faster after hitting an obstacle. While some heavier machines have a higher top speed, the rapid speed from a low Weight stat often provides an advantage in the short, intense bursts of speed required for drag racing.

Hitting every boost pad is crucial for maintaining your momentum and staying ahead. Additionally, time a charge right as the race begins to perform a quick start, which will give you an immediate burst of speed off the starting line.
Hitting a hazard will slow down your machine and could possibly make you stop. Master the track layouts to swerve around any obstacles and maintain a clean, uninterrupted run to the finish line.
