Jace Carter had seen his life flash before his eyes—literally. One second, he was driving his tuned-up Skyline at 150 mph on a dark Nevada highway; the next, a blinding light swallowed him whole.
When he opened his eyes, he wasn't in a hospital.
He was in a grimy bedroom above a muffler shop in East L.A.
He sat up fast, heart pounding. The room smelled like oil and nostalgia. The calendar read June 2000. Jace sprinted to the cracked mirror.
He was younger—twenty-two at most. His face was the same but sharper, like life hadn't yet roughed him up.
A chime echoed in his head.
[Welcome, Host: Jace Carter]
[Fast & Furious System Activated]
[Daily Sign-In Available]
"What the hell?" Jace blinked, staring at the glowing blue window that floated before his eyes.
[Day 1 Sign-In: Completed]
[Reward: 1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 – Midnight Purple – In nearby garage]
"No way," Jace whispered, bolting downstairs.
The garage was locked, but he knew the code—because this wasn't some dream.
This was the Fast & Furious universe.
He knew the plot. The characters. The betrayals. The heists. The cars.
And now… he had a system.
The R34 waited behind the steel doors like a crown jewel. Midnight purple, spotless, engine humming like a purring beast. It even had his custom decal on the hood—a phoenix in silver flames.
"Okay," Jace said, sliding into the seat. "Let's see how deep the rabbit hole goes."
The dashboard lit up. Another chime followed.

He grinned.
"I'm gonna break the street."
