Prelude to 2 Fast 2 Furious

The "Tricked Up Edition" DVD release of The Fast and the Furious and the regular DVD release of 2 Fast 2 Furious include a short prelude video that bridges the gap between the two films. It contains no dialogue; instead, background music and sound effects play throughout the video.

Shortly after letting Toretto escape at the end of the first film, Brian is now wanted by the FBI. He promptly leaves Los Angeles, CA, in a red Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4, heading eastbound. He travels to Phoenix, AZ, and Santa Fe, NM, winning money from other street racers on the way.

In Dallas, TX, Brian ditches his Mitsubishi when police officers receive word of his presence and arrive at the motel he staying at. A blonde woman in a Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder gives him a ride to a used car dealership. After she leaves, he spots an aqua Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 at the lot and purchases it.

On his journey towards the east, Brian gradually modifies his Skyline and repaints it silver. He defeats a red Ferrari 360 Modena in a race in Louisiana, earning more money and respect. Upon reaching Jacksonville, FL, the highway splits into two routes: northbound towards New York and southbound towards Miami. Brian heads to Miami, where he spots Tej and Suki walking across the street, as well as Slap Jack's gold Toyota Supra and Orange Julius' Mazda RX-7.
