You can get the intro quest Introdução à Copa de Kalimdor from Lord Andestrasz who is next to the Rostrum of Transformation (where you customize your Dragonriding mounts) in Valdrakken.

/way #2112 27.1 47 Lord Andestrasz

Next to him is the event vendor, Maztha, who sells items that cost Distintivo dos Cavalgantes de Azeroths which you can earn during the event:

50 — Velocidraco Pairavento: Escamas Turquesa
25 — Dracoleante Sinuoso: Chifre Curvado no Nariz
25 — Dracoleante Sinuoso: Cabelo Loiro
20 — Ombreiras do Velocista de Dracos
20 — Capacete do Velocista de Dracos
20 — Mitenes do Velocista de Dracos
20 — Suéter do Velocista de Dracos
20 — Cinto do Velocista de Dracos
20 — Perneiras do Velocista de Dracos
20 — Botas do Velocista de Dracos

You will need a total of 240 badges if you want to buy everything.

There are 16 locations with 3 races each and you can earn up to a 3 badges per race if you complete them with a Gold rating. There have been a lot more of these events datamined for other continents and they all seem to use the same currency, so I wouldn't feel too stressed out about trying to buy everything from the event vendor this time.

If you want the title from Concluinte da Corrida de Kalimdor: Ouro you will need to complete all 48 Kalidmor Cup races with a Gold rating.

not so hard as expected. Around 3.5 hours for everything. Silithus was a pain. Overall here is 3-4 annoying races. Others mustnt be a problem if you done previous races achieves for gold.
Major tact for most races (except 1k needles and similar) - dont hard push at start. And try to get 4+ vigors. So when you starting to push it must be enough to finish race w/o slowing speed. Require some practice but after that u'll beat most races from 1st try.

If you want to spam your guild with 3 sets of bronze, silver, and gold achievements for funsies, plus kalimdor racer (10 in total) in the shortest amount of time, do Barrens; Great Divide last. It's the shortest race at around 30 seconds and easy to first-try gold.

As you cannot mount on your dragon outside of the races I have not found a way to take advantage of the Bronze Timelock This also makes flying from one race to the next feel extra slow. I am really enjoying flying thru the old content tho.

Lord Andestrasz does NOT show up on the map nor can you find him in valdrakken by searching wowhead. He is mentioned in the calender event but not his location. I had to come to the comments here to find his location at the dragon transformation thingy. I havent started a race and Im already frustrated.

is anyone even getting gold? i keep getting the timer saying im .1- .7 off but never exactly good enough.

Comentado por wereowl

Import a WA like: https://wago.io/dmui-dragonriding
this will help you visualize your speed

Try to maintain a speed of 1000%+, without running out of vigor, or just barely. Don't just spam your button, you can delay it a bit, and pace out your surges

The biggest secret, however, is skyward ascent. After installing the WA i realized that it's much faster than just rushing forward, upwards of 1400%. Use it as much as the track allows.

Comentado por Spilledstars

If you're like me and miserable at this and will never get Silver or Gold because your hands are not the hands of a well practiced Blizz developer......

Regardless of my own angry writing on a couple of the races, you can at least manage Bronze on (3x of 16 races) for 48 coins, plus 10 from the quest giver Lord Andestrasz in Valdrakken. 58 points. This gets you barely enough to get EITHER teal scales for the slim-chicken (Ohn'ahran plains dragon) OR (both of: hair and an oversized rhino horn) for the Zaralek drake.

It'd only get you 2 of the transmog pieces though I suppose if you're even worse at it than I am you could pick the races that like you best and do just enough to get 20 points each on enough alts.

Comentado por Flanell

I did it with inky black potion. Lots of fun and extra challenge, esp. in Felwood where I coudnt tell what hit me in the face. Cant see the obstacles, only the rings, vigor bubbles and lava blobs. It reduces visual clutter and let you focus on the rings.

Comentado por Solloby

After completing all of the races, I have to say that overall this was fun.
But quite a few of the Advanced/Reversed races were really overtuned, the timers were very tight.
Some I couldn't do without using the Skyward Ascent camera flick trick for a speed boost even in spots I didn't need to gain height.

If anyone is struggling to complete these, I have a few tips for players who aren't as used to dragon racing:

Use your mouse to aim.
Only use buttons 1 (Surge Forward) and 2 (Skyward Ascent). Button 3 is never a good use of vigor.
Windborne Velocidrake (the green one) is smaller than a lot of the other drakes, so you may find it clips branches less.
You need most of the Dragon Riding talents unlocked, so if you haven't done that yet, you may not be able to achieve Gold.
The races in the north of the continent seem to be easier than the south as a general rule.
You don't need to go through the centre of the rings, just clip the edges to optimise your run.
The way you move your camera affects Skyward Ascent. Practice using SA to get big speed boosts, as that is key to getting easy Golds.

Created a video of me getting gold in all of the advanced and reverse races in the Kalimdor cup: https://youtu.be/hMDSimQuwgY
Edit: I tried to add commentary as a secondary audio track to the main video but it wouldn't allow me, so I had to upload a completely new version with commentary here: https://youtu.be/aGUosCNZ_70 (still uploading at the time of this edit)

Timestamps included in the video description and on the scrubber.

Some of the advanced and reverse races are simple like barrens and nordrassil, however a lot of them are challenging and require navigating obstacles like crazy and timing your Avante and correctly utilizing your Subir aos Céus

I cut out all of the failures, and in total it was 168 GB of video footage, condensed into a 13 GB, 45 minute long video.

Some tips:

Always try to Avante to keep the speed up
If your next checkpoint is upwards, use skyward ascent instead of surge forward, it gives you more speed for longer
Look out for the smallest of obstacles, be it a statue, a tree branch, a stone cap for a monument, they will all completely halt your momentum
You don't need to hit the dead center of each ring, you can actually just clip the tops and this is CRUCIAL for avoiding obstacles that will arrest your momentum.
Do a reverse race immediately after getting gold on advanced. You already know the layout and you can kinda reverse the course in your head and think about how to tackle tough parts of the race.
There is a stopwatch icon in your quest bar when you start a race, if you know you messed up, you can click on that and it will bring you back to the beginning and you can start over
Some races have floating red orbs or whirlpools in lieu of or in addition to world obstacles, avoid these.
I never used Surto Rodopiante, it costs too much vigor for a minor speed increase that could be better spent or spared for other spells.

Side note: in the above video you might see that desolace reverse uses a different drake than the others, this is because I originally lost the footage of me doing desolace in reverse and decided that in order to maintain uniformity I would do the race over again, while I was stitching together the footage. In the time I finished getting gold on everything, I did the questline to get the winding slitherdrake, which is why you're seeing it there. You don't need this drake for that race, it does not matter which drake you use, it does not change the outcome.

Also, here's a video of me doing the normal races if you're having difficulty with those for some reason: https://youtu.be/SYvsapYcH7c

If you're struggling to get gold in races you may need to consider rerolling a fresh60 on a server with better latency. I play as OCE on NA servers and getting my main these achieves is atrocious with 180-200ms. I finally rerolled on an OCE server with 23-26ms and most of these hard races (except for Aq20 and Ungoro) have been rather easy with a very few repeats.
Edit: I've come to retract my comment. I have since gone back and played on my US main with 170ms and have achieved gold in advance and reverse courses, it is possible. My best advice is to get the Dragon Riding addon and to practice practice.

If you are having problems dragonracing in general, especially with these Kalimdor races designed to screw you over due to obstacles and random tree limbs...

1) Do it in 1st person camera. It helps. A lot. I kept ramming into trees panic-turning because of the huge dragon blindspot.
2) Try not to do the forested areas at night. You'll just keep ramming into trees.
3) Learn how to do the Skyward Ascent wiggle technique. This is actually how you get Gold rating.

I struggled on Uldum reverse a LOT. 20-30 tries with even the best of them still 2 seconds short of Gold. The Trick was simple in the end but maybe you are like me and this will help you: Don't burn your charges on the 2 parts of the track that go down naturally. Conserve and use them in the end to speed through the horizontal part. Got Gold within 2 attempts after realising this admittedly pretty obvious tactic.

Comentado por HaseoThePKK

Do you really have to use whatever random dragon they assign you? Using the highland drakes fat ass trying to dodge some of these trees is pure unfun.

Comentado por Kretyn

Is this ever coming back? Pretty lame that it's a timed event if it's not coming back for those that missed it or didn't realize that it would go away after the event
