Need for Speed Audio Drama
Project Overview
An audio recording of a fanfiction for the Need for Speed film!
Summary:
Tobey, Pete, and Tess are all best friends who are closer than family. Together with Joe, Finn, and Benny, the team works together to build and modify cars used in street races. When they work together to build the ultimate racing car, Tobey and Pete set out to rub it in an old rival's face, Dino.
However, tragedy hits when Dino hits Pete's car during a race which results in Pete's death. Seeing as no one else was present at the race and Dino has an alibi, no one can confirm that Tobey was not the one to kill Pete.
Tess goes into depression at the loss of her "brothers" and quits until the team helps convince her to get back into racing in order to prove Tobey's innocence and get justice for Pete.
The team will set off an a race against time as they travel across the country to get to the all-time street race so Tobey can set the record straight once and for all. But with Dino's power and connections, they will run across all sorts of obstacles.
And along the way, Tess and Finn begin to realize that there is perhaps a little something more between them.

very headstrong and sassy, but goes into depression after Pete dies and Tobey goes to jail; playfully flirts with Finn all the time; "sister" to Tobey and Pete; a brilliant hacker
Benny, were you looking at girls’ butts again? You’re such a pervert. People like you are the reason we have feminists.
Well, Dino (pronounced DEE-no) knows me and what I can do. He knows how to keep me out. I’m sorry, Tobey. I feel like I’ve failed you again. (T: What do you mean ‘again’?) I should’ve been there that day… (T: Tess, you didn’t even know about the race. I never called you.) No. But Pete did. He wanted me to see you guys beat Dino. If I had just gone...
Are you all nuts?! The last time he raced, Pete died, and he went to jail! He’s going to break parole as soon as he gets out and go racing?! (B: Come on, Tess. Joe and I are on board already.) And Finn? (B: Well…no, not yet, but—) Yeah, because he finds this as ridiculous as I do! Benny, I’ve already lost one brother. I’m not about to lose another one. (B: Tess—) No! If you guys seriously want to do this, you’re going to have to do it without me.
Finn's best friend; very protective of Tess especially when Dino is near
You wanna make up your mind? What is it, two, three, or four? (F: Exactly) You know I’m gonna hurt you, right?
Hey, Benny! We believe you, baby! We believe you, Maverick!
Hey man, I know we usually don’t have serious conversations…but why don’t you just tell her how you feel?
Tess's older "brother" who is thrown in prison as there is no evidence to suggest he did not kill Pete; closer with Tess than actual family; very protective of her and her feelings
You may wanna close your eyes for this.
I've seen you drive, and it's terrifying.
Dino (pronounced DEE-no) took everything from me. From us. Including Pete. Pete got put into the ground, and Dino went off to sunny California like nothing happened. You boys do whatever you think is right…but I’m never gonna stop.
a British racing mogul who eventually falls in love with Tobey
5.8 liter, aluminum block, SVT supercharger, and racing headers. Yeah, it’s quite nice, actually.
So, this is how it goes, is it? You’re very quiet, very tough, and then you’re just constantly cracking these hilarious jokes. At least you’ve got this girl with you who has her head on straight.
(to Tess) You don’t strip with someone to quit your jobs unless you feel at least a little something towards them.
leader of an underground race that awards the winner millions of dollars worth of cars; leads a racing show from his lighthouse
(to a caller on his show) Darryl, have your parents ever smacked you upside the head? See, this is a case where sometimes you just need to beat kids. Darryl, Darryl, it’s my show. I get—Shut up! Listen to me! Darryl, one important question. Have you ever even driven a race car? That’s what I thought.
Well, kiddos, it looks like Tobey himself is gonna enjoy three hots and a cot in the pokey for illegal street racing. Mmm, mmm, mmm. I don’t know, Tobey. A few months in jail to prove your innocence. Was it worth it, kid?
Tobey is the last man standing! He’s gonna win the De Leon! He’s gonna win the De Leon! The Marshall kid from Mount Kisco! He’s gonna make a milk run to victory! Tobey is the last man standing! He’s gonna win the De Leon! I can’t believe what I’m seeing! The kid from Mount Kisco! The blue collar kid! Whoo!
Pete's actual sister and Dino's fiance; sweet an innocent but soon sees Dino for who he truly is
I hope it's not awkward with Dino (pronounced DEE-no) here...
(to Dino; genuinely curious) What did she mean that this is your fault?
the little "brother" of Tess; killed in a car crash during a race
Oh, man. My sister and Dino (pronounced DEE-no) are here. She didn’t tell me she was coming home, guys. I’m sorry.
Are you handing out dreams now, Dino?
Look, miss, this isn’t the kind of car you can just go to the mall and buy. Trust me when I say it’s one of a kind.
flirts with almost every woman he comes in contact with, but deep down has a thing for Tess; playfully flirts with Tess all the time; a jokester who rarely takes things seriously, but does when the occasion calls for it
(attempting to flirt with a woman who clearly isn't interested) Hey. Do you like that car over there? We built that. We’re mechanics. We’re not afraid to get our hands dirty. Do you know what I mean?
(trying to get Tess to strip to quit her job) Tess, you’re young, you’re hot, you’ve got a sexy bod. Come on. Live a little. Can you honestly tell me that you actually like this job?
(imitates kissing) Come on, lovebirds. We need to get Benny out of the clink.
LOTS of dialogue!
When it came to her and Finn, they had been shamelessly flirting with each other for the better part of the last three years, but nothing had ever come of it. Their relationship never advanced past ‘friends who flirted’, even though everyone teased them about it.
Today had been the first day he had ever seen her really smile since Pete died. He had forgotten just how beautiful her smile really was. And her laugh…It was like music to his ears. Music he hadn’t heard in far, far too long.
flirts with girls all the time; very laidback personality; flies the plane to warn racers about any obstacles
So I’m supposed to watch out for cops, fly the plane, make sure you got a clear lane, and look out for homeless people coming out of the shadows? I didn’t get that memo, I’m sorry.
And, look, if this is about Anita, trying to get her back or something, do it another way, homie. Write a poem or something. Okay? I’ll help you out. ‘Dear Anita, nothing is sweeter than Anita. I really a-need-a…Anita. And I just came up with that just now. Just now!
That was stupid, Tess. You shouldn’t have punched him at Pete’s funeral. Pete and Tobey knew the risks when they started racing.
very suave but egotistical racer; responsible for Pete's death but manages to evade prison
So, nothing has changed. After 10 years, you wanna just pick up some locker room fight.
230? Are you crazy? What if I can’t get the car there? (T: Well, maybe you can’t, but I can. I’ll drive.) Don’t even think about driving that car.
(smugly) Tobey Marshall doing something stupid and reckless again? Didn’t that guy just get out of prison for manslaughter? (laughs) I just don’t wanna see him race at De Leon. You know, in fact, I’m willing to give up my…I’m willing to give up my Elemento to anyone that puts a stop to Tobey Marshall.
