Six players compete on two specially-designed maps. Races consist of three laps across a map, throughout which players must survive various obstacles including [[Web Mine]]s, enemy attacks, and each other while passing through SRL Gates to boost their maximum speed. The first player to reach the finish line at the end of the third lap wins the race. Rewards are randomized, but the quality of the rewards increases with the player's SRL rank. Winning races and other skill-related accomplishments are required to complete certain SRL [[bounties]].<ref name="GI"/>

Any type of sparrow available can be used in the race, with certain sparrow archetypes having certain advantages over others. Overdrive sparrows give players the ability to speed boost outside of the booster gates, at the risk of overheating and exploding. Trick sparrows can be used to recharge thruster energy, which can help with making quick lateral movements.


During races, players don a unique set of aerodynamic armor designed for Sparrow racing. This armor provides unique Sparrow-related abilities, such as allowing the player to control the speed of their descent through the air or reducing the time it takes to summon a Sparrow. Helmets and class items earned from SRL can drop with up to 320 Defense, but Chests, Gauntlets, and Boots have 0 Defense.
