Mental Block

Once More with Feeling and Without a Klare are combined into a long gymkhana. Make sure your car can drift, but will not slide out of control at high speeds. This is a long race with lots of turns, so the Drift Score should not be your main concern.

Speed is what will make or break you. So drift around the tight, high speed turns that provide lots of score and just get through the rest as fast as you can.

Objective: Score more than 135,000 Drift Score and finish the course within 5:45.

These turns at the start are great for picking up Drift Score early on since you can hit them fairly fast.

Take the side trip to visit the monument. Again, pick up Drift Score while going around turns, but speed is still your focus. Once you get back to the main road, sprint down to Burnwood.

Once again, you cross the main road. However, this time you take a different route through the parking lot and back onto the roads again. Continue to focus on speed and control as you take several tight turns.

The course takes you off-road again. This time you’re driving down the railroad tracks and past the station. Don’t run into a locomotive here. Keep going back onto the road and around to where the time trial began.

Maneuver around some containers and go over a jump, then take the streets through the on-ramp and off-ramp area and barricade into the construction area.

After the hairpin turn, drive over a couple jumps and then make two quick left turns until you’re back on the main street. Then take the quick right turn down the alley. Jump the ramp, but don’t crash into the building.

Once again, you go through the parking area. However, now you have to make a complete circle around the planter in the middle.

Get back onto the streets and drive as fast as you can to the finish line. There are some tight turns, but you need to take them at high speed without losing control. While you should have no trouble getting the Drift Score, it’s tough to make it in time unless you drive the entire run clean and fast.

Tip

Complete the ultimate gymkhana and Ken Block gives you a call. He wants you to meet him at the bunker so he can go over some things with you and Manu. Head on over to the bunker and enjoy the celebration.
