Wow, the Gearheads don't fuck around!

Redstone tasked me with stealing a special Feltrite container from a gang called the Gearheads. These guys are really hardcore and required me to use a lot of special ammo and even a rocket. They are very heavily armored, even more than the Authority... All of them have heavy helmets, so even headshots aren't enough, unless I use special ammo like the shotguns pop rockets or the machine gun's anti-armor ammo. They have a couple of really tough units too. There's a dude with a minigun that takes forever to take down. There's even some flamethrower units that wreak havoc in small spaces...
Chilling outside of Subway Town with my new car
Once I cleared the area and made it back to town, I got a chance to win a new car, the Monarch. This beast is fast, powerful, has a new weapon and looks badass. Of course, this meant a few new races to complete and new upgrades to purchase. I must now enter a Gearhead base to steal their power supply.
