Plot
After successfully hijacking a shipment truck carrying 5,000 dollars, undefeated street racer and former U.S. Marine Jack Rhyers ( Ryan Phillippe ) and his crew of street race hijackers – Kayla Ramirez ( Nathalie Kelley ), Ryan’s childhood girlfriend, Ben Yuan ( Rami Malek ), Elena Lopez ( Camille Guaty ), Ben’s girlfriend, Ron Gibson ( Columbus Short ) and his younger brother Aaron ( Trey Songz ), Carter Fuller ( Jai Courtney ), Ryan’s childhood friend, Aisha Hill ( Bianca Lawson ), Ron’s girlfriend, Carlos Turturro ( Manny Montana ) and Linda Darson ( Serinda Swan ) – decide to participate in a street race; each of them easily dominate the other racers. The crew is later approached by notorious mob gangster John Clayton ( Eric Roberts ), who offers to pay them if they work for him in his shipment deals. Jack turns this down when the deal would leave the crew with only 30% of their pay while Clayton and his thugs receive more than over 90%. Feeling disrespected, Clayton has his nephew Price ( Michael Trucco ), who is a worldwide street race champion and leader of a street race gang, challenge Jack to a race to make him reconsider. Jack beats Price and takes his place as the new street race champion.



Later that night, Clayton attempted to have Jack and his crew killed, but they easily escape. Jack pursues after Price and Clayton, who murders one of his men after discovering him to be an undercover CIA agent name Alan Fisher, and Jack and his crew are blamed for the murder and become wanted. Jack reveals that he had known Alan because he was best-friends with his son, Nate Fisher ( Adam Brody ) who he haven’t seen after joining the marines after high school. After attending his father’s funeral, Nate believes it was Clayton who killed his father and decides to get revenge. He followed Clayton and his thugs to a bar and tried to kill him, but was stopped by Jack, Ron and Kayla, who were also following Clayton. They are persuaded by Price and his thugs and escape, and they return to Jack’s hideout, where Nate meets the others and reunites with Jack’s sister Anna ( Camilla Belle ). Wanting to help clear their names, Nate asks to be part of the crew, revealing to be a street racer, and challenges Carter to a race to prove he has what it takes to be a member. When Nate beats Carter, Jack then decides to race him; the two are evenly matched against each other, with the race ending with a tie and Jack welcomes Nate to the team, much to Carter’s dismay of not wanting him to join.





It is revealed that Nate and Anna were in a relationship with each other back in high school, but after Jack had left for the marines, Nate broke up with Anna to pursue his career in being an FBI agent. After four years in the academy, Nate decided to quit and become a street racer. Nate tries to make up to Anna for leaving her, but she isn’t ready to forgive and be with him again. Linda learns that Price and his thugs are preparing for a race and she, Jack and Nate captures one of Price’s thugs and forces him to bomb their vehicles, including Price’s new bought car given to him by Clayton. Clayton executes the thug and demands Price to kill Jack and his crew.  The following day, Nate takes Anna out for a date, and she later confesses that even though she hated him for leaving her, she still has feelings for him and not Carter. The two share a kiss, before being attacked by Price’s thugs. They are helped by Ben, Elena, Aaron and Aisha, and Carter threatens Nate over Anna nearly being killed. Wanting to get back at Price for what he did, Jack, Kayla, Nate, Ron, Aaron, Ben and Elena hijacks one of Clayton’s shipment trucks while Carter, Carlos and Aisha successfully robs one of his banks and steals over 7,000 dollars.



Determined to make his uncle proud and earn his trust again, Price leads an attack on Jack’s home; Nate and Anna defend off the thugs until they are captured and about to be killed. Jack and Carter rescue them, and a car chase emerges, during which, Carter is shot and fatally wounded by Price’s girlfriend Jessica ( Abigail Bianca ). Ben, Elena, Carlos and Linda arrive and fight off Price and his thugs, allowing Jack and the others to take Carter to the hospital. Carlos and Linda are captured by Price’s thugs, in order to let Ben and Elena to flee and join the others at the hospital, and taken to Clayton, who kills Carlos and has Linda brutally beaten by his thugs. Linda tries to escape but is shot and killed by Price. Kayla sought to get revenge and takeout Clayton, but she is ambushed by Price and his thugs.
