Galactic Racer Vehicle Customization

Learn how Galactic Racer speeder builds use Racer Styles, parts and upgrades, what persists between tours, and why podracers cannot be customized.

Quick answer

Customization includes gameplay choices such as parts, upgrades and abilities, rather than only paintwork. Hibi’s shop is part of the campaign’s build system. Podracers are the exception: the developer FAQ says they cannot be customized.

Build a speeder in this order

Fuse Games describes this sequence in its launch-day interview. Compare choices with your handling problem; it is not a tested best build.

  1. Choose a landspeeder, speeder bike or skim speeder, then a Racer Style.
  2. Select abilities, parts and upgrades after races; spend race rewards in the shop between planets.
  3. Combine parts for their effects and synergies. The default build permits up to five parts.

Separate run upgrades from permanent tuning

Vehicle stats gained during a run are temporary. Vehicle-stat upgrades bought outside tours and Racer Style upgrades persist. The campaign guide explains the reset boundary.

Paid extras are a separate choice

The Deluxe listing includes three exclusive Kor Sarun vehicles, a Naboo N-1-inspired livery and other extras. A cosmetic livery is not evidence of a performance boost. The vehicle-class guide remains the useful starting point for how a craft behaves.

Frequently asked questions

Can I tune a podracer?

The FAQ explicitly says podracers cannot be customized. Do not apply the speeder build rules to them.

Is every named upgrade documented here?

No. This page explains the supported system boundaries. A complete parts database would require a reliable inventory and version-specific effects.
