Thiago

Thiago is a character that appears in Need for Speed: Nitro.

Thiago is one of the racers seen in the opening video challenging Luis, in his Audi R8 4.2 FSI quattro, and two other racers, in a Lamborghini Reventón and a Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34) respectively.

After a few drifts and turns, he activates his 1969 Dodge Charger R/T's nitrous and blasts ahead of Luis, taking the lead before getting the attention of the police, in their 2010 Ford Shelby GT500 (S-197 II) police cars.

Despite the police forming a roadblock at a T-junction, Thiago easily drifts through them and continues the race.
