[xInfected_Virus]

I totally forgot you can use the Vigilante, Stromberg and Scramjet for time trials.

You can’t anymore...at least not the former and latter

I see.

Ah, I remember cheesing the crap out of this time trial with the Aqua Blazer. Well, at least I can use the trusty Hakuchou Drag.

 

Barely managed it this time with an Issi Sport. Gotta be careful in the corners.

To clarify I was only talking about the Stromberg because in the past I did this time trial with the Stromberg by crossing the Alamo Sea. That's why I thought the Zhaba might be able to do it but as mentioned its speed going through water is about half that of the Stromberg so that is very likely not going to be enough. I don't own one so I can't test it though.

Have they patched out all vehicles that can cross the water?

Jep, no weaponized vehicles anymore.

Probably because the TT puts you in passive mode.

Bummer, would have loved to try the Toreador....

That's also a weaponized vehicle.

I just use the Issi Sport for this one. It's quick and grippy even on dirt roads.

Drag bike is my go to when doing them! Calafia way was one of the funniest time trail do before they changed them! Did it even with the APC for fun!

 

Is the Zebba or what it is called to slow to do it with?

Yes, the Zhaba goes about half the speed of a Stromberg through the water, and it was already close with the Stromberg. Blazer Aqua was the best IMO.

Is it slower or faster than the APC in the water?

[Gridl0k]

Blazer was much faster, but then I read they've buffed the APC's speed so not sure any more.

Very unscientific tests: Zhaba ~12 mph, APC ~31 mph, Stromberg ~29 mph (underwater), Blazer Aqua ~64 mph.
