Buddy reveals that he was hired and hands the player his phone. The player is driven further to find out who is causing the trouble and soon confronts Buddy. The Krimsons' crew leader, EX, explains to the player what he knows about the night of the race and Buddy's whereabouts, but during which Sara is seemingly caught in an explosion. Poorboy tells the player that the accident was caused by someone named Buddy, saying he came out of nowhere and caused the crash. The player then races against the Eastsiders' crew leader, Poorboy. They also enlist more people to join the player's crew. Each different crew boss then describes what they know about the incident that killed Mick. They compete in races to defeat crews, regain Mick's territory and see if they know anything about the accident. The player re-enters the illegal street racing scene in the city to find who killed Mick. They visit Mick's grave and help the player to recall their memories of the night the race took place. The player wakes up to be greeted by Mick's girlfriend, Sara and Mick's most loyal wingman, Carter, in the hospital.

The city is divided into different crew territories whilst the player is in hospital. The story begins with the player taking part in an illegal street race with their brother, Mick (full name Michael Rogers, according to the tombstone), and a couple of other racers in a bid to decide who owns the city.Ī massive car crash occurs during the race that leaves the player in hospital with amnesia and kills Mick.
