A scene in this chapter may have been inspired by this picture by that friend I was talking about in the OP (WARNING: Click at your own risk, you may spoil your reading experience if you want to wait for teh Character bios to see how Shye looks like):

I also decided to compress the dialogues. Leaving one line between messages kinda gives unnecessary length to the chapters.
Chapter 4 - Scandinavian Supercar Meeting: Let's dig deeper (Inception reference olol)
It's been a sunny European afternoon and Shye couldn't believe that she have met the man that was her escort way ago. His name is Stephen Wahlberg.
"Yes, it's me, Stephen. Do you need any assistance, my dear Shye?"
"Ugh, oh well. I want this car to be repaired, but there's nobody else to bring this car to the nearest repair shop..."
"I'll be the one to send the car to the shop if you want."
"... and I want to go home too."
"I'll stay here to wait for a tow truck, here you can drive my Ferrari California."
"Say what?!" Shye couldn't believe it - yet again.
"Yes, my dear. Remember why your father introduced me to you and your sister?"
"Okay. So, where's your car?"
"It's around the corner." Stephen handed over his keys to Shye and pointed at the Ferrari.
oops, forgot to resize, sorry
"Wait a second. How about the keys to your Viper? It's also needed for me to deliver the car to the shop."
"Okay, fine..." Shye reluctantly gave him the keys to the Viper.
"Oh wait, I gotta go now. Bye." Shye went away and got in the Ferrari. Stephen then got his phone and dialled the number of a friend that's running a repair shop.
"Hey, my girl got in a crash and needs her car to be fixed. Would it be okay if you come over here to tow this car to your shop and get the car fixed?"
"Sure man. What car is it?"
"A Dodge Viper ACR. Not much damage though. You guys should be able to fix this in an instant."
"Man, that's one hell of a waste. I'm coming."
Later that day, Shye reached her house, parked the car near the garage, and went in the house.
"At least he's able to help...
" Shye thought to herself. She then walked to the door and rang teh doorbell.
*generic doorbell ring*
"Who is it?"
"It's your sister, Shye."
" 'kay sis, I'm coming..." Apparently, Daze was playing Need for Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed. She paused her game and went to the door to open it for Shye.
"Oh Shye, I'm glad you're fine."
"Meh, that crash was just at... like 100km/h or less."
"Anyway, why don't you come inside, sis."
"Why not?"
The two went inside and sat on a couch in the living room. Daze resumed gameplay. Shye asked her sister more about the "Scandinavian Supercar meeting".
"Hey sis, seem to be fine now."
"Yeah, I think I got enough rest already."
"So, what's this "Scandinavian Supercar Meeting" all abou-"
"GOD DAMMIT PATRICK SODERLUND, YOU AIN'T GETTING AWAY WITH THAT BLOCK! C'MON , SHOW ME WHAT A
REAL FIA GT3 DRIVER HAS GOT!"
"Eh Daze, calm down, it's just a videogame. And what's with that Scandinavian supercar meeting?"
Daze paused the game yet again so that she could explain stuff properly.
"Oh, sorry. Well, there's a club of rich people in Europe like us who owns cars like Lamborghini's and Ferrari's. I've been an active member of that club too. Then there was a time where you driven Drivante's Evo 9 for him at the Deep Forest Run What You Brung because his legs got cramps." (seriously, there's a guy who was named "Drivante", a.k.a. Drive)
"Huh? I don't remember driving for him."
"I got a recording of that in a Blu-ray disc to show you. You really drove well that time. I was impressed by your victory there, and so are the friends that were with me that time."
"Huh? I don't get it. I didn't get in any race events, I only took part of one where there were many 🤬-"
"I told you that you drove for him."
"Uh yeah. I did drive for him. But I could hardly remember if I won or not."
"Wanna see how you drove that time?"
"Sure thing."
"I'll quit this game first. I'll just complete this race next time, since I can't get that Soderlund guy." Daze ejected the NFS:S2U disc, kept it in its case and went to look for that disc with the recording of Shye's driving in Deep Forest.
"No, no, nah, nope... guess it ain't here. Oh, there it is." Daze went back, got the disc off the case and inserted it into the PS3.
"So, PS3's can play movies?"
"It's a Blu-ray DVD, what do you expect?"
(Note: I'll do a bit of organizing for once. No commentator for now, anyway Daze only got a record of Shye's performance, nothing else. Shye and Daze's conversation would be
italicized, and what what the drivers would say would appear in normal text.)
(fast forward a bit, wouldn't want to delay the good part

"The M-spec nur is the ultimate Skyline, it'll defeat you all in just an instant."
"Heck, AYC would help me here, along with 300+ hp. This is gonna be easy. And that slut will cry like a baby."
"My car has the best engine of all, and that's why it's the best sportscar I've ever driven in my whole life."
"Chicks dig a pimped-out Silverado, no doubt. And it'll smack you guys apart too."
"
Daze, who on earth would use a pick-up truck like that for racing?"
"
I dunno with that guy. But all he thinks is that he'd get even more girls if he would win in that "pimpmobile".
"
I prefer the Buicks to that."
"Muscle cars would beat your ricers any day."
"An MR GSR ahead? Heh, I'll show you that you don't need to waste more money just for a mere carbon fiber wing."
"It's an RS4, not a run-of-the-mill A4. And it's a wagon so I can beat you while bringing my kids with me."
"Don't mind the steelies, I'm planning to replace them with the TE37's that just came into my garage..."
"I'll show that Impreza's are way better than Evo's. You'll see the power of the Boxer 4."
"Corvettes are the epitome of sportscars. You'll see why my dad treasured it before giving it to me."
"It's this Skyline that is the best. Get your 🤬 straight dude."
"It's just an ordinary GT-R, but you'll see that additional features doesn't matter at all."
"This Evo isn't a fatass, I swear."
"Lotus made this to outrun Bimmers and Mercs, you buffoons."
"Eh, what now?"
"
That's you in Drive's Evo 9."
"
Looks kinda new."
"
And they're off!"
"Wait, How are supposed to overtake me that early?"
"Well, that was easy."
"Bloody hell! Sports saloons are way faster than your piece of Japanese 🤬!"
"Saloons can be faster than that. It's just in the driver."
"
How did I get ahead that early, Daze?"
"
That's one reason why we were amazed by your performance."
"Holy 🤬, you might hit the wall!"
"That was easy..."
"
Are you sure that's me, sis?"
"
Of course."
"
Because that maneuver was really insane."
"
You ARE insane enough to pull that off. "
"You, YES YOU. YOU ARE NEXT IN LINE TO GET OWNED."
"I won't mind losing to someone that hot..."
"Oh 🤬, I'm gonna crash..."
"YOU CRAZY 🤬, YOU'RE GONNA PAY FOR THAT DENT!"
"Oops, sorry there."
"Oh man, I can hear his anger now. I'm not gonna be part of this"
"
Well, so that's why there was some American kid screaming at me after the race."
"
Why?"
"
I braked but skidded into that Corvette. He was extremely angry a dent that would be repaired at a cheap cost. Dumb guy.
"Just pass, I don't want that guy to beat me up after the race."
"Weird, why would you yield me your position?"
"This is it, 🤬, you're gonna cry like a baby now."
"TAKE THIS, SLUT!"
"Damn, why would you block me? Isn't that against the rules?"
"WHAT THE 🤬, YOU AIN'T GETTIN' AWAY YOU 🤬!"
"Calm down, it's not like I dumped your car at sea."
"Now you're next."
"You're not going through me either!"
"Another one dirty enough to do blocking. Great."
"Hey, that move's too dangerous! Get off!"
"You're not gonna get away with that block, loser."
"🤬! 🤬 YOU AND YOUR EVO!"
"That's what you get."
"I don't want my precious car to get dents. Just pass."
"
Who would be skilled enough to dive into the inside?"
"
That guy you met in the Monaco GP way back?"
"
What do you mean by the Monaco GP?"
"
You met some Japanese driver of the Formula GT before the Monaco GP and you got an autograph from him, right?
"
Oh, you mean Hiroto Matsuda? He's obviously way better than me."
"
You're just as good as him, sis."
"
ORLY?"
"
Haha, same old Shye."
"Oh no, she's coming for me..."
"Let's see what a soccer mom has got from a sport wagon."
"Oh my god, how did you pass that easily?"
"Your car has potential. You just screwed it up bigtime."
"How could this happen? Evo 8's are always better than Evo 9's!"
"Just because I have a smaller horsepower output doesn't mean that it's slower."
"Ricer, eat my dust."
"Your need better lining. Seriously."
"🤬. I'm still gonna prove to you that muscle cars are way better than your puny little FnF tryhard ricer."
"You're not gonna let my chicks think I'mma loser, 🤬."
"Fine tune your V8's. They make my race too easy."
"You're going with me afterwards, babe."
"I think not."
"
Yeah, about that guy in the Silverado, he really wants me to have a night with him. I declined, then he just abducted me the day after. That's why you didn't see me for a few days."
"
And what's the point of being kidnapped by him?"
"
Well, he badly wants me be out with him for once. But all I did there was to lay down tied up and ballgagged. I wonder why he wants to waste my time though, I got loads of stuff to do."
"
Stupid guy."
"
At least I'm not the only one treated like that."
"Never mind. Anyway I still got my gurls with me."
"And more understeer... Why do I screw up this corner often..."
"This is allowed, right?"
"I'm coming for you..."
"Oh 🤬, that was close..."
"You're not gonna get away this time..."
"I'll show you the power of the Supra!"
"I got the horsepower advantage, and my car handles the same as yours. You're gonna lose easily."
"Ever heard of "slipstream"?"
"IMPOSSIBRU!"
"Hey, I heard that car can get 1000 hp on a stock block. Go get that horsepower number and I'll have a drag race with you in my Koenigsegg Agera."
"I now got you in my sights, idiot."
"I give up. I can't catch up. Anyway the prize money in this position is already good enough."
"Dammit, understeer!"
"Haha, you amuse me dumb 🤬."
"There you are. You're gonna pay for what you've done earlier."
"
Oh yeah, there were this retarded kid in a red Evo who talked trash at me. He claims that I must be Drive's whore because I'll be driving for him."
"
Then what happened to that moron?"
"
I told Drive to calm down and I'll be the one to humiliate him back. Which I did."
"You can't repeat your trick. Go get your 🤬 🤬."
"HOLY 🤬, WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!"
"Take that, little wanker."
"That was 🤬 close, you're not going away with that, 🤬!"
"I'm not giving up this fight with you!"
"NEVER!"
"Hmm, as expected. Your happiness would be extremely short-lived, retard."
"TAKE THIS YOU SON OF A 🤬!"
"I'm not a guy, smartass."
"CRY SOME MOAR, 🤬 🤬!"
"Is that all you got?"
"Think of the corners next time. Now look who's laughing."
"🤬!!!!!!!!!!!"
"🤬, she's getting farther..."
"You're gonna be 🤬 yourself this time, 🤬."
"🤬, she got away. That 🤬..."
"You're just making a fool of yourself calling me a whore. I'll just go ahead and leave you butthurt."
"🤬 🤬..."
"Why don't we play around for a while, cute guy in an R34?"
"Oh no, my victory would be spoiled..."
"You're so handsome, I want a free romantic night with you."
"Crapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrap...."
"Don't worry, I'm coming sweetheart..."
"
Oh yeah, there was also this guy in that grey R34. He looks really handsome. I even got a crush on him once."
"
I thought Drive's your guy?"
"
I know, but there's something in that R34 guy that I really love."
"
Now you're really getting weird, sis."
"Why would you run away from your girl?
"
"This is madness..."
"C'mon, I just want a hug later."
"She's coming, she's coming..."
"Damn, screwed up again. Now let's get serious."
"Not understeer again!"
"Yes, victory is mine."
"I own these corners, you know."
"No, you're not gonna take first place from me!"
"You're not running away from me, this time."
"Crap, she's at me again..."
"Just a little bit closer..."
"I can feel the pressure... It's so great now..."
"Gotcha."
"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!"
"Let's see if you can run to your girl this time, dear.
"
"C'mon, just a bit..."
"Thanks a lot for 1st place, I'd give you a free kiss for that."
"Damn. Anyway 2nd place seems fine."
---------------------------
Daze stopped playback, got the disc off the PS3, and put the disc back into the case.
"So, what do you think, Shye?"
"I remember everything now. I even enjoyed the whole race. How's Drive's Evo now?"
"It's now modified like how some of the JDM cars should be. The last time we tested it on the dyno, it almost reached 400 hp."
"Cool."
"It's even got custom rims and a new paint job."
"Nice. So, how was your meetup in Madrid?"
"Great, but I couldn't handle the SLS's numb steering. That car was great, but its handling put me down. Anyway, are you planning to drive the RE Amemiya RX-7?
"Maybe the Ferrari F40, been wondering how classics compare against the cars now. Or the Amemiya RX-7, it's a good match against exotics. Nah, I wanna look rich, I'm going with a Lamborghini. Or how about the MP4-12C (blah blah blah, Shye keeps on talking...)"
"I said I wanna look rich. And it's got an unfair advantage too because of a custom suspension setup and stuff."
"I guess so. So what are you planning to drive next?"
"The 430 Scuderia. No wait, the LF-A will do. It's pink and got RPF1's for added appeal. Nah, the Enzo would be my choice. Or how's the Murcielago LP-670 SV? Or my old RUF CTR2..."
Daze couldn't do anything else except to facepalm.
EDIT: "Replaced" Shye's escort with another character. Instead of renaming an original character, I'd just make my own. So meet Stephen Wahlberg, a whole new guy.
