If you'd like to complete this the the simplest intended way.
When the race begins, simply run north across the Dome to the finish line.
With a few class movement speed abilities you should easily beat the Slateback Alpha.

Completed as a DK with plenty of room to spare.

In order to get the achievement 'Brokers dont win' you need to win this in the challenging mode. If you start the race, drop the quest, pick the quest back up before the slateback finishes, he will despawn and you will get a free easy win when you challenge him again.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
