Synopsis for "Engines of Vengeance: Part 1"
After getting done at his job at an automobile repair shop Robbie Reyes goes to pick up his disabled little brother Gabe. He finds Gabe being picked on by Guero Valdez and his gang members who attempt to rob him of his wheelchair. Robbie starts beating up one of the gang members until Guero pulls a gun on him. Robbie sees himself defeated and has to carry his brother back home on his back.
Later at night Robbie goes back to the shop and takes the car he was working on to participate in a street race. The race seems to go well until Robbie notices a helicopter following him. He tries to outrace it but eventually ends up in a dead end. Finally he decides to get out of the car, hands behind his head, assuming he has been followed by the police. However, instead of being arrested he is shot several times. An unidentified paramilitary cartel opens the trunk of his car, taking large bags filled with pills out of them. They light Robbie and the car on fire and leave him for dead. After the cartel has left Robbie, instead of dying, transforms into Ghost Rider, gets back into the car and drives away.
