You are driving on a road back to Palmont City in Carbon Canyon when a flashback of a race against all three crew bosses Wolf, Kenji, and Angie comes to mind from a long time ago before the player left Palmont City. The player is then suddenly rammed by Cross, now a bounty hunter who is hunting you down. You then have to drive your BMW M3 GTR through the canyon to try to escape from Cross. You eventually smash through many wooden construction posts and after smashing through them there is a semi blocking the road. You then are forced to turn around and face Cross.
