Cop becomes infatuated with the gang he was supposed to bring down, and an important choice has to be made. An undercover cop had to infiltrate a group of street racers who doubled as robbers. But, most importantly, it was a story about the birth of a family.

It inspired Gary Scott Thompson and Erik Bergquist to write the script for the first movie from there, it's all ancient history, and we're still enjoying the idea's fruits.īack to our story, I told you we're going to have a look at the two-wheeled machines that made it into the Fast and Furious movies.
