Imagine a city, run by corrupted officials and bought-off police, where streets have fallen into disrepair and whole sections of the city are no longer used by either businesses or by anyone who lives there. A city truly run by crews of drivers in cars that have been turned into rolling death machines, mounted with automatic weapons and explosives, oil slicks and flash grenades, and reinforced with armor plating.
The crews run high-stakes races for prizes ranging from valuable car parts and cash to territory, for those drivers good enough to take it. The street organizers run the biggest crews and have their own turf and territory inside the city, while the racers may or may not belong to a crew at all. The police are bought and paid for by the drivers, so that a blind eye is turned to their activities, as well as those of the arms dealers who run the guns into the city for them.
And the only question that matters is... Can you Drive?
