The objectives of this mission are very straightforward. As soon as the mission begins, race to the first flag—simply run over the flag to pick it up. Once you’ve retrieved the flag, head for the base at the top of the map.

There are a total of eight flags on this map, so continue the same routine. Grab the flag, then return it to the highlighted base. But note, the positions of the bases aren’t static.

Wait until you’ve retrieved a flag before making any plans on which route to take to the base. There are a total of three possible base locations, so pay close attention.

Also, there is a Speed Boost pick-up that appears at the bottom of the map. Don’t go out of your way to pick this up—this can cost time.

Instead, grab Speed Boost after retrieving the eighth flag, when you’re already near the pickup, and then use its speed enhancement to race to the final base. Like all speed trial missions, this one may take a few attempts before you can achieve a gold star.
