In a strange turn of events, right in the middle of an ongoing alien invasion in Fortnite, Marigold is looking for a getaway driver. Under normal circumstances, given her reputation and strange connection to Midas, this would make sense; however, at the moment, the matter is most perplexing.

In addition to wanting a getaway driver, it would seem that she's enlisting the help of loopers rather than asking her known associates to give her a hand. By the looks of it, she might just be up to something, but it's hard to tell exactly what that may be.

Nonetheless, players wanting to try their hand at being fast and furious need to hop into a Ferrari 296 GTB and attain top speed to pass the selection exam. Although the challenge is pretty easy, several factors such as alien saucers, enemy players and rough terrain also have to be taken into consideration.

How to complete the "Reach top speed in a Ferrari 296 GTB" Fortnite week 7 Epic challenge

In order to complete this Fortnite challenge, players need to reach the top speed of 88 on the speedometer in-game. Although the car can cross speeds of 100 once the boost has been activated, 88 is the maximum speed needed according to multiple content creators.

The car reaches its top speed fast but, given that large chunks of the island are off-road terrain, this leaves players with limited options of long, straight roads on which to achieve a speed of 88 on the speedometer easily. Therefore, careful planning will be needed.
