Aftermath…

Author: Maceo
Adaptation: OZ & .59

11:16PM, Nighttime…

In the garage, .59 as expected, is face deep into one of his project cars. This time, he’s adjusting the boost on Alvin’s Koenigsegg. Looks like that the Swedish super engine refuses to agree with a few of his mods, not giving him his planned power output. While messing around with the fuel mapping, he hears Maceo driving up to one of the empty garage stalls with his ’04 Toyota bB. The pearlescent red paint with its orange flakes makes the boxy body work look marvelous in the glow of the street lights. .59 peeks out at the car via the corner of his eye, and goes out to greet him at the garage door.

“999ps… heh… I had no idea…” Maceo says by looking at the semi-covered pink Silvia stored at the back of the garage.

“999 indeed. Trust me, you weren’t the only one…” .59 responds with a understated, yet widening grin on his face.

“Anyway, that’s not the reason I’m here today, I’ve got something to show you.” Maceo says.

.59 responds “Well bust them bitches out, son!”

Maceo nods and walks to the back of the xB, which has been appropriately dubbed “The Hotbox” due to his notorious smoking habits. A finger-sweep past a small hidden sensor on the right rear c-pillar window pops open the custom rear split swing doors, revealing a 10 pack of Kirin Tanrei beer and a rather large 007-style metal suitcase. Located inside is a cobalt blue area 51 laptop and packet of design plans for the NSX.

..Looks like the defeat had forced him to change the scheme of his upgrade plans to a short term flurry instead of the original long term plan. After the car is empty, the two walk back into the garage and close the door.

Maceo carefully spreads the plans over the bench, “I was gonna tell you over the phone, but I figured it would be better to show you in person… some of this stuff is just too hardcore to explain with words…” He says, while he points at some of the details of the layout.

“Dude, this is retarded! There is absolutely NO way you’ll ever pull this off…” .59 replies, impressed with some of the ideas.

“I’m no mechanic, you know me… that’s why I’m asking for your help. Cash is no problem…” Maceo laughs, pulling out his pockets and showing they’re empty.

.59 looks at the blueprints again, and almost as if a light bulb lit up over his head, he looks at Maceo with a devilish grin. “After seeing this stuff, you know I'm gonna have to hook up the 999 so we're even right?”

“ Friend, I wouldn't have it any other which-way.” Maceo replies, giving him a cold beer…

Its 11:30 at night and .59 is still in his garage, as expected. Working on the Koenigsegg, no doubt. Maceo drives up to the garage in a 2004 Toyota scion xB, the pearlescent red/orange paint job looks marvelous in the glow of the street lights. 59 picks up the car out of the corner of his eye, and walks out to greet him at the garage bay door.

Maceo : 999, eh? I had no idea.

59: 999 Indeed. Trust me, you weren't the only one.

Maceo: Wanna see something?

59: Yeah, why not.

The two walk to the back of the scion, which has appropriately been dubbed "The Hotbox" after Maceo's smoking habits. A press on the custom fitted hood and the split rear doors swing outward to reveal a 30 pack of Heineken long necks and a packet of design plans for the NSX. Maceo goes through the driver’s door and grabs the cobalt blue area 51 laptop. After the car is empty, the two walk back into the garage and close the door.

Maceo: I was gonna tell you over the phone but i figured it would be better to show in person.

59: Dude, this is insane. You'll never pull this off.

Maceo: I know I can’t do it, that's why I'm asking for your help.

59 look at the blueprints again, and almost as if a light bulb lit up over his head, he looks at maceo with a devilish grin.

59: You know I'm gonna have to hook up the 999 so we're even right?

Maceo: Friend, I wouldn't have it any other way.

The KID...

Tokyo, Daikoku Rest Area.

The wall clock inside the shop shows 3:00AM, but Dal, Uzer and Alvinkanarbik are still having a the Need For Speed Underground drag race marathon when a new car pulls into the empty Feroci lot. Unnoticed, the driver of a gunmetal grey sports car flashes his high beams lights to grab the attention of the people inside. After several failed attempts and a bit of swearing, he gets impatient and turns up the volume of his Pioneer Premier 2300 head unit. Massive bass, coming out of a pair of 800W Diamond Audio TDX 10D4’s subwoofers is enough to make the bottle caps on the ground jump and shimmy to the beat of the music. The sound is also enough to catch the attention of Dal.. who is now infuriated, after being distracted just long enough to miss a shift and lose his race. He storms his way to outside to find out who was responsible for all that racket with Uzer and Alvin quickly following him, knowing that he and his short temper could possibly cause some trouble…

The racket gets louder as he gets closer to the door, making him scream expletives and insults at the idiot blasting music and highbeaming before he even gets outside, and when he finally opens the door...
“HEY BUUDY WHAT THE FU… DAMN!!! That’s a sick ride!”

The driver of the car, a 2001 Honda NSX, still wearing his Scorps helmet, smiles with pride. Fitted with a complete catalogue of body enhancements from Marga Hills, his S-Zero would not ever have the dishonor of going unnoticed anywhere. Neither would have the JGTC-type rear wing, carbon rear diffuser, carbon rear spats or the carbon fiber hood. Toyo Proxes T1-S tires wrapped around black 18x11” Racing Hart CP035-R rims round out the exterior package. However, behind the cockpit in the engine compartment, was the crown jewel of the entire car.

A Comptech supercharger kit, custom-tuned stand-alone EMS, and a triple-plate ATS carbon clutch were provided and made to work in harmony by Comptech Sports. Along with those bits, DC Sports provided headers and a custom surge-tank intake manifold. An air induction kit from Cantrell Concepts and a JGTC inspired center exit exhaust system made by Taitec were the finishing touches that all worked together to give the car a very distinct look and sound. On the handling front, a Tein N1 suspension system was added to further enhance the car already excellent handling, and a Tarox “Big Brake” 10 Piston system to bring the speed demon an efficient means of decelerating to a standstill.

After a thorough inspection of the newcomer’s car, Uzer knew that cars like that were incredibly rare to come by, and decided to offer an associate’s position to him within the Feroci franchise. The four men all walked inside to iron out the details, and enjoy some more early-morning drag racing. As they make their way into the office, Dal says to the new guy,
“Why don’t you take your helmet off? You’re among friends now…”

The 6'5", slender framed driver slouches his shoulders a bit and takes off the helmet, revealing his facial features for the first time.

Uzer, Dal, and Alvin are astonished. "Shit! Dude, what are YOU doing here? We thought you were dead!"

Maceo thought to himself "The kid is back."

It's 3:00 AM. Dal, Uzer’s, and Alvinkanarbik are having and NFS U drag race marathon when a new car pulls into the Feroci lot. The driver of a gunmetal grey sports car his flashes his high beams to grab the attention off the 3 inside. After several failed attempts, the driver gets impatient and turns up the volume on his Pioneer premier 2300 head unit. The bass pumping out of the pair of 800W Diamond Audio TDX 10D4's is enough to make the bottle caps on the ground jump and shimmy to the beat of the music. Dal, infuriated after being distracted just long enough to lose his race, storms outside. Uzer’s and Alvin quickly follow suit.

"HEY BUDDY WHAT THE FU... DAMN!!! That’s a sick ride!"

The driver of the ‘01 Honda NSX, still wearing his Scorps helmet, smiles with pride. The Marga Hills front bumper, wide front fender, rear bumper & side skirts have not gone unnoticed. Neither have the JTTC type rear wing, diffuser, custom rear spats or carbon fiber hood. Toyo Proxes T1-S tires wrapped around black 18" Racing Hart CP035-R wheels round out the exterior package. However, behind the cockpit in the engine compartment is where the car really shines.

A supercharger kit, E.C.U., and level 2 PowerGrip clutch were all provided by CompTech Sports. DC Sports was used for the headers and manifold work. Also an air induction kit from Contrell Concepts was used. Lastly a Taitec JGTC inspired center exit exhaust system gives the car a further unique look. A Tein N1 suspension system further enhances the cars already excellent handling, and a Tarox "Big Brake" 10 piston caliper system brings the speed demon an efficient standstill.

After a thorough inspection of the newcomers car, Uzer’s offers an associate's position within the Feroci franchise. As the four walk inside to iron out the details. Dal says to the new guy, "Why don’t you take your helmet off? You're amongst friends now."
