Carlson
Objective: Take the Toxin to Dr. Kvasir.
I don’t know what that Toxin is, but I know it isn’t safe.
Either way, we can’t let it fall into the wrong hands. It’s a lot to ask, but can you take the Toxin to Dr. Kvasir? He’ll know what to do with it.
Be careful, and thanks again for your help.

Carlson needs you to take the Ghost Clan’s Toxin to Dr. Kvasir’s lab. But before leaving Wellspring, visit Rusty to stock up on supplies for your Cuprino. You’ll most likely encounter several bandit vehicles along the way to Kvasir’s lab, so it’s a good idea to be prepared for some intense vehicular combat. Buy plenty of Shields, some Drop Mines, and at least a couple of Armor Restore items. You can also bolster your vehicle’s offense with some Hover Turrets. These drone-like weapons hover around your vehicle, automatically firing at nearby enemies. Hover Turrets don’t dish out a ton of damage, but they’re a good way to defend your flanks. Aftershockers are also a great way to dish out some damage, releasing a burst of energy that can flip enemy vehicles, making them vulnerable to follow-up attacks. Also, if you have some extra racing certificates, don’t miss the opportunity to buy some upgrades for the Cuprino. Back at Mick’s garage, assign your quick use items and exit to the Wasteland.
Before entering Scorcher Territory, deploy a Hover Turret and choose Shields as your quick use item. If you’ve been completing the Sally’s Bounty jobs, by now you’re facing some stiff resistance. Some of the bandit cars may be equipped with Shields and rocket launchers of their own. If you see a red “Danger” warning on the screen, it means an enemy vehicle has fired rockets at you. Quickly deploy Shields to avoid taking heavy damage. When you’re not deploying Shields, saturate the ground with Drop Mines while blasting the enemy vehicles with rockets of your own. During the fight, constantly monitor your Cuprino’s health and use an Armor Restore before your ride explodes. The Armor Restore works fast, but it leaves you somewhat vulnerable to attacks, so race away from the pack while repairing your vehicle and then rush back into the fight. Keep up the attacks until all the bandit vehicles have been reduced to flaming wrecks.
Enter Kvasir’s lab and place the Toxin on the metal tray. Kvasir tells you that he’s been developing a new weapon for the Resistance, and this Toxin may contain just the right ingredient to complete his research. In his experiments, he’s injected Nanotrites into subjects, allowing them to be controlled for a short time—before eventually exploding due to Nanotrite overload. But this Toxin may allow him to refine the formula. In the meantime he wants you to make another delivery. . .
