Kickin' Up Dust is a story mission in Faster, Baby!.
Overview
The evidence folder was just the beginning. Slim's not done with the folks of Sinclair.
Narrative
Leaving the impound
Roxy was able to get in touch with all but three witnesses, Andy Lafayette, Gina Paulson, and Eddie Hanahan. The Sheriff has them cut off and it's only a matter of time before he moves in. On top of that, the whole Parish is locked down, and nobody's getting in or out without Slim's say-so. With no time to lose, the three quickly devise a plan.
Lincoln and Roxy will head to the impound lot to get Roxy's Lassiter Nightcrawler. With that, they'll ride around Sinclair kickin' up dust, causing so much mayhem that the Sheriff's Department won't be able to resist chasing after them. While the entire department is distracted by them, M.J. will steal around town picking up the witnesses and then bring them back to his farm.
Everything goes to plan as Lincoln and Roxy head to town and begin raising hell, tearing things up and keeping the Deputies busy. When they've caused as much damage as they can, they head to the Sheriff's Checkpoint and blow up the fuel reserves stored there. Along the way, Slim gets on the radio to deliver a message to Lincoln and Roxy. Slim says they're not used to their coloreds being so rambunctious in Sinclair, and he's looking forward to giving them an education, while laying down some law and order.
After they've destroyed the checkpoint, they head to the Sinclair Parish Fair, where Slim is holding a re-election event. M.J. has just one witness left and wrecking this event gives them the time he needs. Once all the witnesses are picked up, Lincoln and Roxy meet up with M.J. so he can lead them to Sinclair Scrap & Salvage, where he has a trap waiting to be sprung on the Deputies.
The plan and the trap go off perfectly. The witness are all accounted for and the deputies have been dealt with. All that's left is for them to regroup back at the farm and get everyone and The Folder out of Sinclair Parish.
Walkthrough
Gameplay Tip: While on this mission you will have unlimited ammo for your one-handed weapon. However, the mission involves extensive vehicle combat, so it's advisable to stock up on explosives, Adrenaline Shots, and get a fresh Tac-Vest before you begin. Once you enter Roxy's car at the impound lot you will be unable to exit until the end of the mission. In the event of mission failure you will be given the choice of starting at the last checkpoint or aborting the mission.
