Head to the location above and make sure the time is sometime during the day, or fast forward to 12 PM and enter Claire’s garage.
Talk To Claire In Her Garage
Claire can be found underneath the car at the front of the garage and you should choose the following dialogue options to start her questline, which is a set of four races set across Night City.
Dialogue:
- Nice ride.
- Hey, I’m here.
- Driver, eh? With you as navigator?
- There a race of some sort?
- I’ll be your driver.
- When do we start?
Complete The Qualifying Races [0/3]
There are three races you need to complete each of which will be given to you after you complete one. Read on to find out how to complete the three qualifying races.
Wait A Day For Claire To Contact You
Fast forward time by a day (or two just to be sure you have triggered the event) and Claire will message you a couple of minutes later inviting you to a race. Once you get the message you will have the quest to complete the first race.

Complete The Beast In Me: The Big Race

Note: If you choose to not follow Sampson this quest will complete alongside The Beast In Me: The Big Race.
Confront Sampson At Claire’s Side
This option will only appear if you choose to follow Sampson at the end of the race. If you choose to finish the race, the quest will end once you complete the race.
If you choose to follow Sampson, he will eventually crash his car at which point you can go up to him and begin to confront him. If you didn’t try to convince Claire to not kill Sampson at the end of the Santo Domingo race, Claire will kill Sampson no matter what dialogue options you choose or don’t choose.
Talk To Claire
Once he is dead, head over to Claire, who will be standing by her car and talk with her about the situation. You can either join her on the ride back or go off on your own.
Get In Claire’s Ride
Now, you need to hop into Claire’s car with her if you decided to join her on the ride back.
Talk To Claire
Talk with Claire in the car to get her thoughts on the events that just transpired. You can choose any dialogue options. Once you arrive back at the garage the quest will finish. She will also give you “The Beast”, her vehicle.
This finishes The Beast In Me side quest job in Cyberpunk 2077 (CP77).

I told Claire that my priority is wining in the third race and tried to calm her down when she confronted Sampson but she still decided to kill the dude and I lost the opportunity to get his car! I did everything right why that happened :/
She always kills him regardless. Don’t think you can get Sampson’s car?
Well apparently it’s so buggy to get his car , and yes as I said you can actually save Sampson but that’s very buggy too (obviously like everything else in this game lmao) ,to get his car you either gotta save him or finish the race.
Saving Sampson depends on your dialogs in the 3rd qualify races and also calming Claire down in the big race.
You need to revise this because you can persuade Claire not to kill Sampson. After the third race, you need to choose the third option and then the first, and the choice to prevent her from killing Sampson will be there when we confront Sampson at the end of the job.
