"Slap Jack"[1] is the name of a street racer in Miami who participated in the street race organized by Tej Parker.
Biography[]
The Turbo Charged Prelude for 2 Fast 2 Furious[]
When Brian O'Conner arrived in Miami after traveling across the country following his escape from Los Angeles, he sees two tuned street cars - one of them being Slap Jack in his Supra.
2 Fast 2 Furious[]
Slap Jack arrived to the area where Tej Parker's race takes places short after its organization. Slap Jack was preoccupied with getting his hair combed by his girlfriend, who reminds him that they need the money he'll win from the win. When Tej asks for the whereabouts of their fourth racer, Joaquin, Slap Jack informs him that he had to take the "graveyard shift" and was unavailable. Without a fourth racer, they wouldn't be able to race.
After Tej contacted Brian O'Conner, the ex-LAPD officer arrived and makes the suggestion that raise the stakes from $2000 to $3500. Slap Jack gives the money to Tej and gets ready to race. Slap Jack leads for a majority of the race until he makes too wide a turn that allows Brian to take the lead. When they hit the bridge, Slap Jack takes the lead again until he jumps the bridge. Brian's car flew over his and Slap Jack's car hits the ground hard behind him, causing him to lose control and hit a billboard.
A few days following the street race, Slap Jack participated in Tej's car scramble scheme. When Brian and Roman Pearce were transporting money for Carter Verone and are trying to evade the police, they entered a massive garage that ends up surrounded by cops. When the pickup trucks from the warehouse disable the police cruisers and push them out of the way, hundreds of cars come pouring out of the warehouse. Slap Jack was among them, driving his fully repaired 1993 Toyota Supra Turbo MK IV.
