Multi Vehicle Race
Twelve-vehicle grid with landspeeders, bikes and skims. Check the required finish position.
How to approach it: Position matters; use clean exits and avoid reckless contact when ahead.
EVENTS / CONTRACTS / PIT WALL
What does this objective mean?
Know exactly what an event or Backer wants before spending a League Token. This reference separates racing modes from sponsor requirements and gives a concrete way to approach each one.
Event types / Nine database modes
Find the event shown on your screen
Eliminator
The last racer is removed at intervals. Introduced in Act II.
How to approach it: Move clear of last place before the elimination warning, even when a boost shortcut looks risky.
Galactic Gauntlet
Act-closing Eliminator challenge, often a demanding final stadium encounter.
How to approach it: Prepare a durable build and read its event configuration; surviving each elimination matters.
Head to Head
One-on-one rivalry challenge. Winning advances Rival progress.
How to approach it: Avoid costly contact mistakes; follow the selected circuit's correct direction.
Field Test
Solo time trial or specialized objective; shakedowns include several categories.
How to approach it: Read exactly whether you need time, boosts, hits, precision or another objective.
Podracer Race
Pod-only grid and memory race contexts.
How to approach it: Use airbrakes before difficult bends and inspect any additional Tale objective.
Podracer Test
Solo timed Podracer challenge.
How to approach it: Compare only the correct route variant; brake early on unfamiliar corners.
Single Vehicle Race
All racers use a matching vehicle class.
How to approach it: Your opponents handle the same basic maneuver, so win through consistent lines.
Race [Full Grid]
An internal/variant mode label present in the database.
How to approach it: Follow the in-game description; this term alone does not establish a new player-selectable mode.
Backer objectives / How to complete
Choose a contract your craft can actually satisfy
The Broker, Hutt and Pirate each offer six tracked activities, and targets often increase as you advance from planet to planet. A high Backer rating can unlock a Favor. The game also imposes possible penalties for taking too many high-risk days. The exact requirement in the active menu is more authoritative than an older screenshot.
The Broker
Counts: Airborne time; ability hits; time at high speed; takedowns; slipstream overtakes; two overtakes within two seconds.
A timing and technical-performance backer. If your craft rarely jumps or uses abilities, avoid selecting a difficult airborne or hit target.
Penalty can turn the planet's races into Eliminators. Reward path leads to Deeper Pockets.
The Hutt
Counts: Ramjet seconds; overtakes; ability activation; pre-race checks; jumps; time spent in first place.
Straightforward if you reliably boost and check your craft before events. Ramjet-second targets are high; do not overheat merely to satisfy the contract.
Penalty reduces allowed crashes by two. Reward path leads to Team Vranki.
The Pirate
Counts: Afterburner time; System Malfunctions; time in last place; slipstream time; advanced maneuvers; Redline count.
Better for specific styles and deliberate maneuvers, not every race. Remaining in last place to farm a metric is risky in an Eliminator.
Penalty takes forty percent of planet credits. Reward path leads to Bloody Bounty.
Why my challenge did not complete
Five checks before restarting
- Wrong event: a regular Race does not substitute for a named Field Test or Rival.
- Wrong time window: some conditions must be reached within one Tour or one planet rather than cumulatively.
- Wrong selected Backer: reaching Derven Acos with a different sponsor cannot unlock the intended reward.
- Wrong finishing requirement: a win, podium and survival condition are not interchangeable.
- Wrong route variant: mined, reverse, special and pod versions can use different gates and rules.
