"Guy running around like a loony in Ingleton by the barber's. Maybe he needs a trim?"
Jamie Flynt

Speed Freak is a side mission in Dead Rising 3.

Nick only will receive a call from Jamie about this mission after meeting with Red at the car lot rooftop during Chapter 4.[1]

Summary[]

Nick can speak to a man named Derek who stands in the courtyard in the back alley behind the Lee-Amies Estates. Derek challenges Nick to a race around the streets of Ingleton. Proceed to the starting point and follow the markers around the city to complete the race. Due to the presence of numerous hordes of zombies during the race, it is advisable to equip a weapon for self-defense. This race takes Nick and Derek through almost all of Ingleton, so adequate preparation is essential.

Nick is not restricted to completing the race on foot. In fact, he can drive to complete the mission more swiftly without any risk of failure. Upon finishing the race and defeating Derek, Derek unlocks the previously inaccessible Just a Shot gun shop. The shop offers a variety of guns for Nick to choose from.

If Derek beats Nick in the race, the mission will fail and cannot be restarted. Consequently, the Just a Shot gun shop will remain inaccessible. To prevent this, make sure Nick has a vehicle strategically positioned after the monk's garden, as the mission requires Nick to traverse two garden checkpoints on foot (vehicles cannot pass through).

Strategies[]

  • Utilizing vehicles will get the race done much faster and easier, although some players may consider this cheating.
  • Allocating points to the agility category through attributes will cause Nick to run faster and have more stamina.[2]
  • Quickstep will greatly extend Nick's running endurance.
  • Repulse or Untouchable will protect Nick from hordes of zombies while he runs through the zombie-infested streets.
