- "This circuit will take you winding through the narrow bridges and streets of Keren and it is favored by the more technically minded racer. Focusing more on finesse then it does raw speed this course will definitely challenge your racing skills. Due to the danger street racing poses to pedestrians, the RSF does not approve of this activity so participation is at your own risk."

Keren Stret Race
The Keren Street Race was a racing event held in the Naboo city of Keren. The race sent the racer through and around the city, and some considered it a challenge with all the tight turns and racing over bridges that were involved in the race. At one point, Ben Quadinaros held the fastest record on the track, but it was later broken by other racers.[1]
