Need for Speed: Most Wanted - Empire City/Blacklist Racer Details

This page contains additional information on all 20 Blacklist racers in NFS:MW-EC, including each racer's strength and the Pursuit Tech they employ. Each racer's bio is also featured here.

"X"
Vehicle: Koenigsegg Regera

Bounty Points Required: 10,000,000

Completed Races Required: 8

Strength: Everything

Pursuit Tech Employed: Everything (Spike Strip, ReTire, EMP, Stun Charge, Jammer, Shockwave)

Bio: "To say that "X" is an enigma would be an understatement. This is a man speculated by many to have no identity. No one has ever known his real name; he gravitates toward the least lit areas wherever he goes, and he has never revealed his face to anyone--including other Blacklist members. What is known about him should not be that surprising to you by now. It's no wonder these other racers respect him so much. I will remind you of this: this guy is the last obstacle on your way towards clearing your name for good. Beat him and that will happen. Good luck."

Cassandra "Honey" West

Giorgio "Duke" Acosta
Vehicle: Lamborghini Aventador S

Bounty Points Required: 6,500,000

Completed Races Required: 7

Strength: Pursuit Length

Pursuit Tech Employed: To be added.

Bio: "You know those types of guys that think they're ghetto when they clearly don't look it? Well, Giorgio is one of those guys. He definitely ain’t from around the way. Got that cherry Aventador of his as a "turn 21" gift from his parents. Don't be fooled by him though, the guy can drive. It's often been said that he was set on becoming an F1 driver before Empire City got to him. He's been labeled by many as an oxymoron; despite being the leader of the "Bye Bye Police" gang, he prefers to keep his car scratch free. Feel free to give him a good bump and run when you can."

James "Jimmie" Rivera
Vehicle: Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio

Bounty Points Required: 2,000,000

Completed Races Required: 5

Strength: Eliminator Races

Pursuit Tech Employed: To be added.

Bio: "This is Jimmie. He's what you could call a made man. He got most of his money player butler to some of the richest people in Empire City. Rumor has it that one of them gave him that black Alfa Romeo and taught him how to drive it. Needless to say, given his spot on the Blacklist, that guy went a little bit too far into his teaching. According to my sources, he got that Outsider vinyl of his because he knows Eddie. Why don't you take him to the Underground?"

Hikaru "Obi" Wan
Vehicle: Nissan GT-R NISMO

Bounty Points Required: 1,500,000

Completed Races Required: 5

Strength: Circuit Races

Pursuit Tech Employed: To be added.

Bio: "This is Hikaru. Straight outta Japan, this guy's got his car customized in so many ways, it's something out of Star Wars. He usually hangs around paint shops, keeping that bright orange and white GT-R as clean cut as possible. But when he's not at the shop, he's out lapping people left and right in circuit races."

Ray "The Underdog" Powers
Vehicle: Jaguar F-Type R Coupe

Bounty Points Required: 1,000,000

Completed Races Required: 5

Strength: Cost to State

Pursuit Tech Employed: To be added.

Bio: "This here is Ray Powers. As a member of the "Bye Bye Police" gang, he's someone who's not afraid to piss off police in any way he sees fit. He's even been known to get the Union Jack stretched across the front of his Jaguar dinged up a time or two. But there's one other thing he hates more than cops, and that's people challenging his spot on the Blacklist. Rumor has it; he became "The Underdog" after he pulled off seven comeback victories in a row while defending his post. Just saying: don't count this Brit out too early."

Drake "Crooner" Johnson
Vehicle: Porsche 718 Cayman GTS

Bounty Points Required: 800,000

Completed Races Required: 5

Strength: Sprint Races

Pursuit Tech Employed: To be added.

Bio: "I don't know how Drake does it, bro. He spends his nights crooning at nightclubs around Syzslak Point and his days tearing up the streets in his black Porsche. He also leads the city's "Mind Closed Ahead" street racing gang. I think you can imagine how much respect this Frank Sinatra wannabe has among his inner circle. Word to the wise: Do not give him a chance to get in your head. Apparently, he has a tendency to incorporate jazz lyrics into his constant taunting. Let him know you're doing things your way."

Edward "Eddie" Prince
Vehicle: Nissan Skyline GT-R R34

Bounty Points Required: 650,000

Completed Races Required: 4

Strength: Eliminator Races

Pursuit Tech Employed: EMP

Bio: "Edward Prince is no stranger to the world of street racing. I'm sure Bayview and Ventura Bay can attest to that. In fact, he's been in the game for so long, many outside of Empire City have considered him to be a legend. But don't let him get off easy. One second he's not there and the next, he'll be pushing that copper Skyline on top of your bumper. But who knows? Maybe he'll respect you too after it's all said and done."

Toni "Tek" Aoki
Vehicle: Honda Civic Type-R (FK2)

Bounty Points Required: 500,000

Completed Races Required: 4

Strength: To be added.

Pursuit Tech Employed: To be added.

Bio: To be added.

Bartholomew "Bart" Coles
Vehicle: Ford Mustang GT

Bounty Points Required: 350,000

Completed Races Required: 4

Strength: To be added.

Pursuit Tech Employed: To be added.

Bio: To be added.

Aki "Drift King" Kimura
Vehicle: Mazda RX-7 (FD3S)

Bounty Points Required: 250,000

Completed Races Required: 4

Strength: Circuit Races

Pursuit Tech Employed: None

Bio: "Aki Kimura is an example of good, but not good enough. An accomplished leader of a racing group in Fortune Valley and an even better former Noise Bomb drifting champion, the Blacklist gods of Empire City knocked him down the list time and time again until he is where he is now. But don't let what I just said fall on deaf ears. They didn't call him the "Drift King" for a reason. But look at it this way: beat him and you'll be the second one to ever do so."

Frank Book Jr.
Vehicle: Dodge Charger R/T

Bounty Points Required: 150,000

Completed Races Required: 3

Strength: Speed Challenges

Pursuit Tech Employed: None

Bio: "This cat is Frank Jr. You probably remember seeing his father get beat by Ryan Cooper back in '07. Well, fast forward fourteen years later and here we are. Aside from the obvious, Junior here is the embodiment of the phrase "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree". Like his old man, he has an affinity for old Dodge's, and he is blisteringly fast. I heard a rumor once that he got his Charger up to 200 MPH. But don't let that intimidate you."

Mia "Motor" Moreno
Vehicle: BMW i8 Coupe

Bounty Points Required: 100,000

Completed Races Required: 3

Strength: Sprint Races

Pursuit Tech Employed: None

Bio: "Lemme introduce you to Mia. She's known as "Motor" because she really knows her way around cars; so much so that I wonder if she's secretly related to "The Alchemist". Her BMW certainly reflects her personality on these streets. When the situation calls for it, she's not afraid to get her hands dirty. Don't let her put you outta commission."

Jackson "King Kong" Wong
Vehicle: Ford F-150 Raptor

Bounty Points Required: 50,000

Completed Races Required: 3

Strength: Cost to State

Pursuit Tech Employed: None

Bio: "You'll be able to hear "King Kong" Wong coming miles 'fore you see him in your rearview. He's got his F-150 Raptor tuned to the max and I personally have no idea how he got hold of that exhaust system of his. He's also been known to get that brown truck scratched up pretty good on more than one occasion. But that's not taking away from the fact that he can drive. I mean, really drive. Some people have said he did things with that truck no one else could've done. But don't let me turn you off. To you, he's just an ordinary racer. And you know what to do with ordinary racers...."

Van "Crash" Volquez
Vehicle: Subaru BRZ

Bounty Points Required: 25,000

Completed Races Required: 3

Strength: Immobilizing Police Vehicles

Pursuit Tech Employed: None

Bio: "This here is Van. They don't call this guy "Crash" for a reason; with this guy, it's always a bad day for the police officers chasing him. He prefers to use his silver Subaru as a weapon on the road, and many a wrecked police cruiser can attest to that. He's been rumored to not be as good of a racer because of his wrecking ball tendencies. Feel free to be the one to prove that rumor true."

Joe Tackett
Vehicle: Honda Civic Type-R (EK9)

Bounty Points Required: 10,000

Completed Races Required: 2

Strength: Drag Races

Pursuit Tech Employed: None

Bio: "This is Joe Tackett. He's someone who's had a lot more downs than ups during his time as a member of Apex Glide, an organized race team from back in the day. He was known for running 15-18 second quarter miles in his Honda Civic, and that was on a good day. Don't even get me started on his bad days. But that was then, and today he's a shell of his former self relishing in his new outlet. He poured almost all of his AG earnings into his Civic and now the thing runs like a rocket. It's often been said that if you ask Joe about his past racing, he will say he doesn't remember it. Why don't you be the one to jog his memory?"
