Walkthrough

1
After speaking with Claire, leave her garage.
2
Wait one in-game day for Claire to text you. Skipping time 24 hours is recommended, as simply waiting may not trigger the text.
3
Read and reply to Claire's text, then travel to the marked location on the map.
4
Call Claire upon arrival. You can choose to use her vehicle or one of your own; hers is sufficient for the race.
5
Sit on a nearby bench to allow the game to load the race.
6
After the timeskip, return to Claire, take the shard she gives you, and enter your chosen vehicle.
7
Wait for the race to begin. The streets are wide with few obstacles, making the race relatively easy if you drive well.
8
Slow down for sharp turns to navigate them comfortably and gain ground on the AI.
9
Follow the arrows and hit the generous checkpoints.
10
Avoid catastrophic mistakes, though the AI is designed to be easy to beat, and finishing last still completes the quest.
11
Claire will offer to drive you back to her garage. Letting her drive can provide insight into why you are the designated driver.
12
Exit the vehicle when Claire reaches the destination. This quest will end, and you should wait for a follow-up text from Claire to start the next job, The Beast in Me: Badlands.

Tips

If you are having trouble getting the text from Claire, try performing other activities in free roam (the open-world mode where you move and play without an active mission) before skipping time.
Focus on anticipating turns and driving smoothly rather than aggressively to maintain a good position.
