'''Overdrive''' is the [[Tack Shooter (BTD6)|Tack Shooter]]'s path 3 tier 4 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It decreases attack cooldown by 66.7%, tripling its attack speed compared to the previous upgrade, [[Tack Sprayer (BTD6)|Tack Sprayer]]. Overdrive and other tier 4 and above Tack Shooters have slightly elevated lines of sight compared to tier 3 and below Tack Shooters.

Overdrive is a very strong tower against blimps and [[Boss Bloon]]s (except {{BTD6|Vortex}}), in addition to doing good Bloon damage during the mid-game. It functions the best when placed near a loop, especially when placed directly under a section of the track, where its deadzone (spot above its placement where all tacks hit) is directly on the track and deals very high damage.
Overdrive's 1 damage and 2 pierce tacks necessitate towers such as {{BTD6|Berserker Brew}}, {{BTD6|Embrittlement}}, and {{BTD6|Primary Training}} to maximize its power, in addition to {{BTD6|Geraldo}}'s [[Sharpening Stone]] and [[Jar of Pickles]]. Against Boss Bloons, {{BTD6|Glue Strike}}, {{BTD6|Super Brittle}}, and {{BTD6|Cripple MOAB}} aid greatly as well. 2-0-4 is the optimal crosspath, allowing it to fill its role as a blimp-damaging tower better and work much better with pierce buffs.

==Trivia==
*Its upgrade icon only depicts 8 tacks, half of which it actually shoots in one volley.
*Both Overdrive and {{BTD6|The Tack Zone}}'s attack cooldowns were reduced by 50% in {{BTD6 version|12.0}}, making the buffed Overdrive shoot faster than the pre-buffed Tack Zone.
