After unlocking the Dark Maker satellite and meeting Seem (under unpleasant circumstances) Jak remembers that Kleiver said he could drive one of his desert dune buggies. A new "clenched fist" icon appears in the proximity radar.

[Movie sequence begins] Jak approaches Kleiver in the garage area near the edge of Spargus. This is a fortified garage protected from the desert by a huge metal interlocking door. Kleiver says Jak can use the Sand Puppy. They decide to make a wager to see who can win a race? Keliver wants to wager Daxter for a vehicle. Daxter's not too impressed, but Jak says if there's one thing he does well, it's race!! Jump in the vehicle and drive to the first flood light. |
WEATHER CONDITIONS: You'll notice from time to time that the "ambience" of the game will change. One minute you'll be in bright daylight, then the day turns to dusk, then to night. It's quite stunning to see the graphics in different environments.

Before Jak takes on Kleiver in the racing circuit around the desert, Jak first needs to learn a few basic driving skills. These include, braking, reverse, back-view camera, jumping while moving, and control-skid cornering. The game engine is very realistic and the Sand Puppy gets bogged down in loose sand and drifts across on all 4 wheels when traversing dunes. Should you flip over, the buggy will right itself on its own (face saver). After the training, go find Kleiver by the rock outcrops. |
