===Race descriptions===
;Ahn'Qiraj Circuit
: Before you stretches the mysterious ruins of Ahn'Qiraj. This race, Ahn'Qiraj Circuit, challenges you to embrace the mystery on a winding path through its foreboding halls.
: Would you like to try this course, dragonrider?
;Ashenvale Ambit
: Much like the Dragon Isles, this land, Ashenvale, is alive with history.
: And the Ashenvale Ambit fast paced course through the area's ruins, shrines, and age-old forests gives a glimpse of some of it! Are you ready for a little history lesson?
;Azshara Rocketway Ride
: Our aim with the Rocketway Ride is to show the Bilgewater Cartel what real speed is!
: It's a winding, quick course that follows the Rocketway through Azshara.
: Now, we dragonriders have a reputation to uphold, so get out there and break some Rocketway records!
;Desolace Drift
: Desolace... even the name is evocative of open, empty spaces.
: But the Desolace Drift will show you it is anything but!
: On this course, you will glide through the Valley of Spears and the Kodo's Graveyard, but you will also fly over and through lush Karnum's Glade and the mystical Cenarion Wildlands.
: Ready to "drift" through Desolace, dragonrider?
;Durotar Tour
: Welcome to the Durotar Tour, dragonrider.
: Glide through the rugged landscape of the Valley of Trials and the seaside beauty of the Darkspear Strand on this expansive course.
: Ready to ride?
;Felwood Flyover
: Oh! Ha. Greetings, dragonrider. You snuck up on me...
: <the timekeeper looks around cautiously.>
: Sorry, it's a bit... spooky here...
: This is the Felwood Flyover. If you would like a twisting, turning ride through the hauntingly beautiful Irontree Woods and Shatter Scar Vale, this course is for you.
;Feralas Ruins Ramble
: I have been lucky to be assigned a course in an area with a... lively history!
: And that history has left behind some awe-inspiring ruins. Our race, the Feralas Ruins Ramble, lets you get an up close--I mean a VERY up close--look at them.
: Would you like to ramble back through time, dragonrider?
;Great Divide Dive
: I hope you brought your courage with you for this race, dragonrider!
: This is the Great Divide Dive! This course sends you down into the fiery depths of the Great Divide, through the Overgrowth, and into the Nightmare Scar.
: It's a quick course, but watch out for the flames of the Divide. We wouldn't want your wings singed, now would we? Ha ha!
;Hyjal Hotfoot
: Do you find the sound of a roaring fire relaxing, dragonrider?
: Then the Hyjal Hotfoot is for you! Enjoy superheated updrafts as you fly through the Flamewake, around the Throne of Flame, and over the Rim of the World.
: Well, are you "fired up" to race?
;Nordrassil Spiral
: Elune-adore, dragonrider! Welcome to Mount Hyjal!
: In this race, you will soar through the boughs of one of this land's most beautiful and ancient trees on a fast, looping course.
: Ready to go out on a limb and try the Nordrassil Spiral?
;Razorfen Roundabout
: I cannot think of a better place for a race than a rambling bramble of thorns filled with angry quilboar.
: Actually, yes. Yes, I can.
: But the twists and turns in this course--and the startled looks of the quillboar as you sail through their backyards--are worth it!
: Would you like to try the Razorfen Roundabout, dragonrider?
;Thousand Needles Thread
: Welcome to the Thousand Needles Thread.
: The severe landscape of Thousand Needles makes an excellent backdrop for a course with quick turns and narrow choke points.
: Can you thread your way through the Thousand Needles Thread, dragonrider?
;Uldum Tour
: Welcome to a race set in a lush desert oasis! 
: On the Uldum Tour, you will ride the warm winds of this fertile delta on a tour of Uldum and its settlements. You will even ride right through one of its most sacred areas, the Chamber of the Sun!
: Would you like to explore Uldum, dragonrider?
;Un'Goro Crater Circuit
: As a timekeeper, this crater fascinates me. Its primordial tar pits, ancient trees, marauding megafauna...
: And the Un'Goro Crater Circuit lets you experience all of that as you trace the crater's edge.
: But, some advice... If you hear something heavy coming through the trees, just keep flying!
;Webwinder Weave
: This dragonriding course is called Webwinder Weave and it's pretty obvious why... 
: On it, you will fly through Webwinder Path and around Mirkfallon Lake. But beware when flying through the trees of the webs and...
: <The timekeeper gulps loudly.>
: ...the spiders. Oh, why did it have to be spiders?
;Winter Wander
: Hail, dragonrider! Are you ready for the Winter Wander?
: The snow really flies on this fast-paced slalom through the northern territories of Winterspring.
: Its tight turns and steep climbs to chill and thrill you. Want to try it?
