Objective Time Reward

This is a staightforward mission with the purpose of introducing you to maneuvering your vehicle. Any vehicle you choose is appropriate, as the time limit is extremely generous. Even the Kavostov will have no trouble completing this training level.

This mission consists of five checkpoints which can be hit in any order. The easiest way to finish the mission is by following your directional arrow, taking a slight left at the first checkpoint and right turns at each one thereafter. The only challenges are some slight hills and avoiding the cement structures in the area.

Because your only objectives are hitting checkpoints, the quickest time will also give you the highest total score.

Best time[edit]

Selecting from any vehicle in the game, go with the ATV Monster. There are no enemies or deliveries, so a high score is based solely on time to completion. Boosting right off the bat is inadvisable, as you will end up leaving the ground, which slopes downward, making it hard to control on landing. Use your first boost about halfway down the slope. You can pretty much boost the entire rest of the track with slight pauses between boosting for some of the trickier turns. Some problem areas you might encounter are the turn after the second checkpoint, going over the water for the third checkpoint and getting through a boosted turn into good finishing position after the fourth checkpoint. Although this is the first mission in the game, it is actually a very difficult level on which to get a perfect run through.
