So about the K drive races spawn locations

Where are they exactly? I can't find it on the map, even when I am on my K drive. Am i doing something wrong? I tried to reload Fortuna a few times and looked at the map where k drive races can start, but none where to be found. So if anyone of you guys know where they happen to be today, would you mind sharing it?

You have to find one, first, then it'll show you which 5 are currently active. I know the one way down in the bottom-right was up when I was on earlier.

My advice would be to do what I did and put Loc-Pins on as many as you can find. It'll take a while, and I think the maximum Loc-Pins you can have active is lower than the 22 races, but it still helps a lot.

Huh. Didnt know this was a thing. Usually I pop into my Kdrive and see it on the map. Goes to show how little I've bothered with Kdrives. Ooof.

Thats all of them to see which ones are active mount your k drive and they will show on the map. I had a list which one I had done so if you are goinf for teh achievement I suggest keepingtrack like that and check them as they are done

This site has a map (second one down) which shows all K-Drive race names and locations.  If you look at the comments at the bottom very helpful souls update daily on which 5 are currently active, which removes the need to search around as the distance at which you can see them is low.  This site helped me finish the K-Drive race achievement.

There's 2 bugs in the way here -

1) race locations do show up on the map if you're on a board - but ONLY a custom board - the default board does not filter/show them, forcing you to go find them.

2) in a group, the selected racer ( the one actually running the race ) round robins between clients - if you start/finish/fail a race, it prevents you from restarting it , but the next player can. Sometimes, it will allow you to start it, but the actual active player is someone else, and if they don't run it you're stonewalled.

I have a custom board and helped a person with a default board, so these things became apparent pretty quickly.

Additionally - if you have a custom board, you cannot choose 'none' to access the default board in your vehicles loadout, making bug hunting even more annoying.

Wow that's a weird one.

i have to check better but maybe they will show you only  what you have visited.

That could possibly be why. Have done all the races before so they'll all show up for me, but perhaps not for them.

I want to get standing to make a custom board but I can't get it because I can't find them and I can only find them easily if I have a custom board which means I need to grind standing to get the custom one but I can't because I can't find them... why do all the starting components cost 5000 standing? also no, I have done the closest one to Fortuna many times and it hasn't appeared in the last four days.

Yeah this seems to be my problem. I never see them on the map and I have a default board. If it wasn't for the wiki, I'd probably never use my K-Drive
