A '''Turbo Duel''', known as a '''Riding Duel''' (ライディングデュエル ''Raidingu Dyueru'') in the Japanese version, is a type of [[Duel]] which is only played by either using a "[[Duel Runner]]" or a "[[Duel Board (5D's)|Duel Board]]" in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]'' series and in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V]]'' series. It can be [[activate]]d without the consent of the opponent by activating the Field Spell "[[Speed World (anime)|Speed World]]", "[[Speed World 2 (anime)|Speed World 2]]" or "[[Speed World Neo]]", seeing as how everyone who Duels on the road is a candidate for play. Usually when a Turbo Duel starts in a stadium, an [[MC (Master of Ceremonies)|MC]] will shout (Japanese version only) "Riding Duel! Acceleration!".

The exterior element of movement is the key idea behind Turbo Duels, as it adds an unexplored element of dodging, riding skill, intimidation and imagination. Turbo Duels are much more intense than regular Duels, from not only the danger, but being as that the Duelists are connected to [[Speed World (anime)|The World of Speed]], the Duelists emotions are connected to each other. Dodging attacks also seems to be an aspect of Turbo Dueling, because you have until the attack connects to [[activate ]] a trap card [[Trap Card]] in response, as evident by Duelists who avoid being physically struck by attacks even in Duels where they can't be hurt, than activate a trap Trap after they dodge. This adds the element of movement to a Duel where it wasn't present before.

Turbo Duels add the potential for new rules that take advantage of the [[Duel Runner]]s on which players ride, as shown by the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]'' tag team Tag-Team rules and the exterior element of optimizing your the player's Duel Runner adds a new level of skill and culture to the Duels. The varying distance between the players adds the element of keeping up with your their opponent to better react to their moves, which adds another element of movement to Dueling. Turbo Duels make Dueling into a sport akin to jousting, especially in that the most famous Duelists Turbo Duel in the rich part of the city.

Unlike normal Duels, regular [[Spell cards Card]]s cannot be activated in Turbo Duels, and instead makes use of special '"[[Speed Spells'Spell]]s".<ref name="ep1">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's|1|ref}}</ref><ref name="ep33">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's|33|ref}}</ref> Additionally, Duel Runners are normally put in autopilot to allow the Duelist complete freedom of thought; their CPUs are controlled by the arena or Duel Lane designated by the authorities. Though when it's a '''Shadow''' Turbo Duel, it takes an experienced rider to drive around the wall of energy making the Dark Mark.
