    There's a total of 3 races in which you need to beat Imelda Reyes "Best Time". During the races ensure you don't miss any rings and collect the yellow speed bubbles for a burst of speed. The target times are fairly lenient and you should achieve them even with mistakes. If you fail to beat the target time you can just revisit the race starting line to try again. See below for more detail on quest names and when the races unlock:

    Race #1 Questline: "Flight Test."
    Unlocked After Main Story: "The Room of Requirement."
    Required: Buy A Broom (600) from Albie Weeks - Spintwitches Sporting Needs Shop (Hogsmeade).
    Race Location: Hogwarts "Quidditch Pitch."
    Target Time: 2:20.

    Race #2 Questline: "Sweeping the Competition."
    Unlocked After Main Story: "The Elf, The Nab-Sack, and the Loom."
    Required: Purchase Broom upgrade (1,000) from Albie Weeks - Spintwitches Sporting Needs Shop (Hogsmeade).
    Race Location: Outside "Irondale."
    Target Time: 2:26.

    Race #3 Questline: "The Sky is the Limit."
    Unlocked After Main Story: "It's All Gobbledgook."
    Required: Purchase Broom upgrade (4,000) from Albie Weeks - Spintwitches Sporting Needs Shop (Hogsmeade).
    Race Location: Southern tip of the "South Clagmar Coast."
    Target Time: 2:42.

    Shortly after completing all Albie Weeks quests he'll sell a legendry upgrade for your broom at a price of 7,500.

    penn19Just to clarify, you only need to beat Imelda’s time in the three races. These are all done during Albie’s quests to upgrade the broom, as noted above. You do NOT have to beat the fastest posted times (by Ruby Wiel) at each location

    Knucklehead923I've even best Ruby Wiel's time on all 3 races, and it's still not unlocking. This achievement is for sure bugged

    MrAndyPuppyI am at a loss. This is the only thing keeping my wife and I from unlocking a bunch of achievements because neither of us can fly very well. :( She's playing on the easiest mode also - kinda surprised she doesn't have a skip solution like she does for beast catching, etc.

    The first two races I managed to do legitimately after a couple tries. The third however I did twice and didn't get it, so the game gave me the option to skip it and I did (I thought I'd come back to it later when I felt like spending more time practicing it). Instead, after going through the motions with the conversations following the achievement popped. Not sure if it's supposed to do that, or if it's a bug. If it is, better hurry up and get it.

    Note: As I said I got the times legit for the first two races, though maybe the skip will work for them as well.

    Edit: I did play on story difficulty. That may be a factor and thought I mentioned it originally.

    ZeBeDee32Unfortunately didn't work for me. Only got the option to quit or try again if my time didn't make the cut. Quitting after 3 or 4 attempts didn't pop the achievement. Went back and tried a few more times and eventually got it legit (and only just, time was 2:42:06 so thought I'd blown in by a few milliseconds). So maybe they have removed the skip option unless it's difficulty level specific? (I was on easy on this playthrough)

    Yeah, I didn't simply quit, I gave it a couple tries then it gave the option to skip it. I may be a story difficulty option specifically.

    MintedRogueReplying here - this works if you have difficulty set to Story only
