Subject: No special treatment.

Hellooo.

Hey, I hear you want to get personal. Now, I want you to know that you've been
moved up in the world. Now, you and I have our own rules.

And, oh, if you're wondering how I got your number, let's just say not 
everyone out there is your friend. Especially when they need to get their ride
back out of lock up.

You have a good night, I'll be seein' ya.***

Subject: Performance tuning might help.

You can't always run the same setup for every race if you're lookin' to edge
ahead of the competition. Think about tuning the characteristics of your car
to get the right balance for a specific race or race type.

Pay attention to your gear ratios. If you're on a tight track with lots of
corners, having more acceleration might pay off. If you're ripping up the
highways you might want to slide the performance over for more top speed.

There are lots of options, so don't forget to give 'em a try. Making a smart
tuning choice might make the different between winning and coming in second.
You can find the performance tuning in the pause menu.***

longer to take you on. Get this run over with.***

Blacklist Rival #5: Wes Allen 'Webster'                             [MW.04.13]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ride: Corvette C6
Strength: Escaping Pursuits
Bio: Webster's always talking about rides, performance, racers, blah, blah,
blah. Won't shut up. He's got some crazy idea that he's gonna make it big.
When he ain't street racing, he's hanging out at shops. His ride is tuned to
the max. Apparently the interior is stripped of everything that isn't related
to speed.

Time to get yourself that Dodge Viper with upgrades - it'll be worth it, trust
me. With a few more upgrades it'll be faster than light. For now, let's just
race and beat Webster.

Strength: Speedtrap Races
Bio: I don't know how JV does it, man. His nights are spent in the clubs and
days on the streets. This guy's got a lot of street rep. Cops hate him and

Well, well, well, #5 on the Blacklist. Bravo.

Don't get too worked up though, cuz you see, you've still got my guys to go
through and I've got a feelin' things are gonna get a lot tougher for ya. Uh
huh. A lot tougher...***

***Text

From: Rog
Subject: Next level of police.

You're attracting a lot of attention. Watch the heat level on the car you're
driving.

If you get to heat level 5 your day will suck. This level of heat attracts the
top cops -- heavier SUVs, more aggressive helicopters and your worst nightmare
-- Cross' corvette-driving police squad. You don't wanna mess with them if you
can avoid it.***

Hey! Hey! Homies, look! Can you still say homie? I don't even know - I'm from
old school. Hey look, how ya doin'?

Looks like bein' a good driver doesn't mean you got good taste. I thought you
guys were supposed to be all about street rep. What? No, I'm playin', I'm
playin'... I don't mean to front like that.

What's the deal with that ride of yours? Don't you care about how it looks? I
mean, man... maybe I can help you out with some pinstripes - my personal
favorite.

I look forward to bustin' you... again, and again, and again... So look, get
some rest. I'll be seein' ya.***

Hey, #4 on the Blacklist is up. JV's a popular guy with the crowd, so take him

Blacklist Rival #3: Ronald McCrea 'Ronnie'                          [MW.04.15]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ride: Aston Martin DB9
Strength: Immobilizing Police Vehicles
Bio: You know Ronnie. He's on of those rich freaks that thinks he's ghetto. He
definitely ain't from around the way. Got his car as a graduation gift from
his parents. Don't be fooled though, the guy knows how to drive. He's been to
every race school you can think of.

Can you even believe the Dodge Viper from JV is a bit better than the car of
the previous opponent? Plus you can give it another upgrade. However, I
suggest raising your bounty with a car that has heat 5. Do the races with the
Dodge Viper (assuming you won it, of course - if you didn't ignore this).
