"A German Girl in an American Scene"
(source from picrew.me)
Short background
Born in 1991 February 1, Helda Fincke is just wee little gal in the little hometown of Baumholder, Germany. Nothing really happens there, except of course seeing her father, Wegner Fincke, always dirty after long hours of working on his car. Helda as a kid really did not care about what was of her father (at the time) but always curious what was in that garage. At the age of 12, she graduated at the top of her class, thanks to her mother, Emilia Alfent Fincke (a Brit), who always cared and attended to her when the husband was not around.Faithful encounter
One day, Helda was able to take a sneak peek on what looked to be of a shiny blue paint, a stubby sports car. Looking at such striking sharp edges and straight lines, She fell in love with the Bradford. It was only that time that she had realized she had a thing for cars, especially the one her father had.
9 years have passed
9 years after last seeing the car after migrating to the US for work, Helda has led a safe but mundane life.She is earning the money that she can afford to live in the US and spend extra on any little and unnecessary things in her lifetime, but really, she is wanting a thrill in her life, and mostly, her attitude changed. Her thrill-seeking soul and happy-going mentality went away as adulthood encapsulated her.
At work, she just received a letter, written by both her mother and father. Long story short, her father exported the car all the way from Germany. It sparked inside her a little of that joy knowing that seeing that shape in her life once again with the hardwork from his father poured in the car.
However, after arriving at the port, it was looking all different. It looked so shiny, with the body full of pearl, and rims that were a big contrast of black. Gone was the wing that accompanied the very strking shape and was replaced with a large diffuser, which also brings to the LED Taillight bar at the rear that makes the car look just a little bit more retro.
In the inside, there was a notebook that had “Eine Outlaw-Reise” (An Outlaw’s Journey) written in front, and a a small piece of paper which had a telephone number, a telephone number to the Fincke Household in Germany. Knowing that she at least had a care for her parents, she called without hesitation

phone picks up at the other end
Helda: Dad!
Wegner: Helda… Is that you? It’s been a long time I heard your voice. Now listen her-
Helda: What’s up with the car? The whole thing is converted to such a racecar… Like at least tell me the whole point with converting our sportscar into a fucking outrageous ra-
Wegner: That is what I was gonna tell you. Now listen up, I entered a competition, an illegal one in fact, with your name with it…
Helda: Ok, that is just really fucked up…
Wegner: I know, your life is on the line here. Now here is the thing, if you win, then you can call yourself a true racer. I know you had it in you ever since you were a kid.
Helda: . . . . .
Wegner: I know you can do it, now make me proud, you will make this car’s legacy through this challenge.

Helda:…

Horizon Bay, The Day before the First Race for the Showdown
Helda arrives at the scene at a place that is not so conspicous, except for the fact the car itself is just a glowing sign that a racer has arrived. Helda looked around at what’s really happening. There were many kinds of cars, muscle cars, sportscar, family sleepers, the whole lot! There were some people dressed up as their favorite characters. For Helda, it looked so surreal, but yet she doesn’t really give a damn at the moment, so she reads her father’s notebook…
What opportunities will await Helda?
