Drag Race is a Stadium mode in Kirby Air Ride, having a chance to appear at the end of City Trial on default settings. It tasks the racers to take 1st on a long and straight course.

Overview[edit]

When a Drag Race begins, the contestants are placed at the start of a long straight course, with the objective being to reach the goal first. Depending on the course, there will be a number of different obstacles on the path, though none of them are dangerous. Contestants can attack each-other, and if a racer is KO'd, they will be forced to retire. Naturally, vehicles selected and patched for sheer speed will do well here.

Stages[edit]

There are four distinct Drag Race courses, with the fourth requiring a Checklist objective met before it is unlocked. All four courses borrow their aesthetic from the Checker Knights course. They are as follows:
