==Plot==

The player starts off by being recruited by an agent, and receives a sum of money sufficient to purchase the first [[vehicle]]. As the player challenges the first crew, ''Authenthics'', the Agent explains her suspicion of Mr. Baledin, who recently became the top crew leader and purchased a [[casino]] ''The Valentine''. She thinks that Mr. Baledin is a corrupt person and that the crew leaders have some involvement with his reign of power. The agent reveals Marco to be a tearaway child and a thief, while also having a romantic affair with another crew leader, Kandy. The player proceeds to defeat Marco, progressing to Tier 2.

In Tier 2, the player proceeds to challenge the '''Thrillers''', commandeered by Olivia. As the player continues to challenge Olivia, the agent tells the player about Olivia's background: Olivia runs a car show under the same name, which, after having experienced severe financial troubles, came to Mr. Baledin for a loan. However, the loan did little to help their financial situation, and Olivia's car show became in debt to Mr. Baledin. Olivia and her associates agreed to race for Mr. Baledin to make up for the loss. The player defeats Olivia and the Thrillers, moving onto Tier 3.
