Hey, kid! You're gonna represent me in a little underground street race some guys I know run every year. My beautiful Rosalita, my car, is my stake. I don't worry though, 'cause - ha! - you will go and win her back for me. We meet at the World Fair Park - the start line. Just don’t turn up in a heap of junk – you gotta win, man! - ―The Mexican
Rosalita Racer is a mission in Driver: Parallel Lines.
Plot[]
The Mexican has set up a race with "some guys I know run every year", where his "Rosalita is at stake". He wants TK to turn up to the race in something that's "gotta win man", and expects the TK to win his car back for him. He states they meet up in World's Fair Park at the start line, and have to race to the Rosalita which is located in a car park besides some apartments in Brooklyn.
After TK turns up to the start line in the World Fair Bark near a band stand, he finds the Mexican with his bodyguards, waiting at the start line, beside a Cerrano. The race starts, and the competitors are found in an Andec Punk, Cerrano Punk and Brooklyn Punk. They race through the streets of Queens and Brooklyn in whatever route they choose.
After TK reaches to Rosalita first, and begins heading back to the finish line with it, the opponents begin to tail and open fire on TK, risking the vehicle of damage. The police are also alerted and begin to chase TK. Once TK reaches the finish line without damaging the Rosalita, the Mexican will congratulate him. If TK reaches the finish line with the damaged Rosalita, the Mexican complain for him damaging the car due to the gunshots, with TK innocently denying this, stating "I won, didn't I!?". Either way, the Mexican then leaves with his car.

- All the opponents will begin racing, with some taking different routes to each other; there is no route to follow, the player must simply reach the car before the other racers. No weapons must be used.
- Get Rosalita to the finish line. [Back to top]
- Once reached before all the other racers, the player is told to take the car back to the finish line (where they initially started; the start line, essentially) upon entering it. The opponents will begin to open fire, ram and shout at the player once they catch up, and police units around the area will be alerted, before chasing the player and open firing. The player must get the car back without wrecking it, however, damage from the bullets can not be avoided, which is the initially reason The Mexican will complain at the end of the mission.
