Appears in 3 Locations Around the Map
The special Machine formations can appear in 3 locations around the City Trial map. However, it's important to note that they will continuously move around the map during the event, so you must follow the yellow exclamation point icon to track them better.
Disappears After a Certain Time
After a certain amount of time has passed, the special Machine formation will leave the field. Be sure to get to the formation as soon as you can before you miss your chance to swap Machines.
What to Do With Special Machine Formations
Follow the Formation and Change Machines
During the special Machine formation event, try to follow the direction of the group and catch up to them. Once you're able to get close enough to one of the Machines, you can swap your vehicle without much resistance.

Chance to Switch to Better Machines
The special Machine formation event gives you an opportunity to swap to a better Machine. Since the event puts together more options to pick from, there are more chances of you finding a Machine that will be better for your current run.
Recommended Machines to Get
| Machine | Features |
|---|---|
| Warp Star |
・Well-balanced performance and easy to use ・Recommended especially in the early stages |
| Wagon Star |
・Has high performance in most categories except Charging ・Can't Boost Charge |
| Chariot |
・Has high durability and is hard to break ・Has high turning ability and can turn easily |
The Machines listed above are good choices to switch to if they appear in the special Machine formation event. However, it's not guaranteed that the options will be better than your current Machine.
If the special Machine formation doesn't have anything that you need, you can opt to skip the event and continue collecting Power-Ups around the map instead.
