Fast Times is a challenge and perk in Fallout: New Vegas.

Challenge requirements[]

Use Turbo.— Challenge description

The Courier must obtain and use 20 instances of the chem Turbo.

Effects[]

This challenge grants the following upon completion:

  • Fast Times perk (33% increase in the slow-time effect duration when using Turbo).

Notes[]

  • The perk pairs well with the Chemist and Day Tripper perks, and the Logan's Loophole trait.
  • Completing this challenge will also complete the Day Tripper challenge (use 25 addictive chems) as Turbo is considered an addictive chem.
  • Old World Blues (add-on) Using the Implant GRX consumable will not count for the challenge, nor is it affected by the perk.

Behind the scenes[]

The challenge name is a reference to the phrase "fast times," a euphemism meaning a period of one's life that had the sense of progressing at a faster pace than one could remember; the phrase was inspired by the 1982 comedy film Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
