Story

The Crimson Racers are ranked #3 in the Beastieball League. The Sports King, as part of his attempt to turn the player into an underdog with an epic story for marketing reasons, proposes that Barnes McBride acts as the player's rival. McBride finds this ridiculous being that he coaches the third best team in the League, but the Sports King insists that third isn't even that good.

The Crimson Racers can be seen in action during the player's second hangout with Riley. Together, they go and watch a match between McBride and Valerie Stride, where he loses very quickly.
