The Bootcamp Drift Trike in NBA 2K27 is a new transportation reward you can use to get around The City, joining vehicles such as the Waves Scooter that were available earlier in the game.
Unlike some equipment that comes from Starter Challenges or the Season rewards track, the Bootcamp Drift Trike is tied to one of NBA 2K27’s rotating Weekly Races.
That means you need to head back to The Track and complete the active Week 4 racing objective before the challenge rotates out.
Once unlocked, the trike can be assigned to your equipment wheel and summoned while exploring The City.
How to Unlock the Bootcamp Drift Trike in NBA 2K27
Beat the 2:20 target time in the Week 4 Race of the Week at The Track to unlock the Bootcamp Drift Trike.
You can check the objective from:
- Quests/Challenges > City Challenges > Weekly Races
- Open Race of the Week and select:
- Week 4: Beat the Target Time
- The reward shown on the challenge is the Bootcamp Drift Trike.
Head to The Track and start the current weekly race. The Week 4 challenge uses a three-lap race with a target time of:
2:20.000
You need to finish all three laps under that total time.
For reference, I completed the challenge in 2:18.614, with a best lap of 44.514 seconds.
A 2:20 total gives you an average of roughly 46.6 seconds per lap, so you do have some room for a slower lap if you make up the time elsewhere.
Tips for Beating the 2:20 Target Time
The Week 4 race feels different from the earlier Weekly Races, so give yourself a couple of attempts to learn how the vehicle handles before worrying about the target.
Focus on clean laps instead of trying to force maximum speed through every corner.
Avoid hitting the barriers, since losing momentum can cost several seconds. Try to enter turns from the outside, cut toward the inside, and straighten your vehicle as quickly as possible on the exit.
You do not need a leaderboard-level time. Your only goal for the Bootcamp Drift Trike is to finish the three laps under 2:20.000.
The Track rotates to a new course and target-time challenge each week, so the exact route and vehicle can change. 2K also uses the facility for Matchmaking, Vs. Friends, Vs. Friend’s Ghost, and Survivor races.
How to Equip the Bootcamp Drift Trike
Unlocking the Bootcamp Drift Trike does not automatically equip it.
To add it to your equipment wheel:
- Pause NBA 2K27 while using your MyPLAYER.
- Open the MyPLAYER tab.
- Select Equipment.
- Choose one of your equipment wheel slots.
- Select the Bootcamp Drift Trike.
- Return to The City.
- Open your equipment wheel and select the trike.
Your MyPLAYER will pull out the Bootcamp Drift Trike, and you can immediately start riding it around The City.
The camo design and oversized rear wheels make it pretty easy to distinguish from the other transportation options.
