A teenager named [[AwesomeMcCoolName Max Justice]] has just finished up with a street race when he gets a distress signal from home. When he arrives there, he finds the place wrecked, and [[RobotBuddy Robot Buddy]] Gearhead restrained.

In the wake of this, a security breach and bomb are detected at an engineering plant that Max's scientist father works at. As soon as Max arrives at the scene, the bomb destroys the facility.

As realization comes along that this was a [[FieryCoverup Coverup]] for a robbery of several cars and data disks at the plant, a hunt begins that spans 5 different locales, and the stakes turn out to be much higher than they seem...

** TheDragon: Rupert Jacoby.
** TheEvilGenius: Also Rupert.
** TheBrute: Conrad 'Nitro' Byrne, 'Backroads' Belcher, Simon 'Slick' Deluca.

perfectly fine until they take a point of damage that brings them past zero.

* CripplingOverspecialization: There are four cars in the game with 100 in a single stat. While the ones for Speed and Stunt, the HW Prototype 12 and the Jet Threat 3.0, are pretty good, the Hyper Mite (100 in Handling) oversteers way too easily and the Surfin' School Bus (100 in Armor) is extremely slow and very bulky.
