| "At least Peak Angle had the gait to face me..."
>AM comments to no one in particular. He warms his engine, keeping in in the middle revs.
| >a familiar voice laughs through a certain radio channel
/oh man never thought you'd get me front row seats to a race/
| > Drivers are all instructed of the destination by the ones setting up the line, one heads over to AM's car and knocks on the window.
| (It's 1am here, I need to get some sleep, soz. -AM)
| >AM opens the little sliding window on his door.
"What's up?"
| (For really now...)
| (Gotcha, I'll let ya' sleep. Gnight!)
| (I return! -AM)
|
| (OP?)
| (I am here! Yes sorry, very much sorry..)
"It's a straight run, and by straight Ieam no offramps or anything, like a highway. Thw finish will be marked in twelve miles, you can't miss it. Good luck!"
| "Alright. Sounds like a plan!"
>AM shouts over the cars, and closes his window.
| > The person nods and heads back as the starter walks to the line. They stand in the gap between the cars and raise a flag, revving is the only sound audible over the cheering.
"Drivers, are you ready?!"
> The new DJ shouts, mostly for the crowd's enjoyment.
| > With out wait, the starter waves the flag, then drops it straight for the ground, the signal is given and cars launch like bullets.
| >AM drops the clutch as the flag hits the ground, pushing power to all the tires, which let out a squeel as the gain traction on the ground, and launching the 240z forward
| >As the rear tires get all the engine power sent to them, the front tires start getting power too by electric motors, but to only help the car moving forward, as past 2nd gear, they are out gunned by the engine.
| "And they're off, everybody! Make some noise!"
> The crowd cheers as you and the cars begin to disappear quite quickly. The lineup is as following: AM, NSX, Porsche, 2 Audi's and a BMW, each quick in their respective fields. The NSX is quick to hold is place next to AM, but falls flat to his launch. All drivers are immediately behind him before the first mile!
| Around mile 4, AM's suspension setup makes him lose speed, due to its drifting setup, rather than straight line speed...
"Damn it..."
| > This is where the other cars begin to come alive.. The porsche has kept a close distance of three-four seconds to AM, and with his agility, drafts to catch up! Immediately behind the 911 is the M60, using the same technique to hold third. Upon mile five, a sharp turn will arrive, expecting a speedy entry are the cars behind! Watching afar, however, is Aki kimura, the DJ and fans.. And just maybe..
"Look at that! Rookie's holding them off, will he be able to defend much longer?"
| >AM keeps hard on the throttle, switching his fuel mixture to rich to squeeze the last few horses out of the engine. Corner coming fast.
>300m. AM keeps hammering the throttle.
>200m. Steady...
>90m, and AM pulls his Handbreak and clutch, letting his car move in to a reverse entry. As he spots the apex of the turn, he feathers the throttle, nearly wiping out on the Apex. As he passes it, he pulls the clutch to realign the car, and downshifts back in to the straight line.
| (Calling it now, AM ain't going to win this.)
| (Gotcha lol)
The BMW and Porsche hold different strategies, the porsche slowing down immensely, just before 150m for the smoke screen, whilst the BMW attacks, slowing only enough to hit the apex and smoothly hitting the outside of the road on full curve. Before you known it, the BMW has pushed through the smoke, now right on AM's tail!
"Look at that sick entry! Rookie's got style! But it'll cost him though, look at the aggression from Peak Angle! Touching bumpers I tell ya'!"
| > Passing through the Porsche, the NSX catches with the first Audi, stretching the gap with Porsche in last.
| >AM sees now that he is in the wrong fight. Grip vs Drift on a straight line? It was never a question. AM loses out his top spot to the BMW, but the splitstream lets him keep his position behind the BMW.
| >The car of muscle he faces, and obviously experienced. BMW doesn't use any sort of extra speed to outrun him, but paces with defense to let the others keep up, a nasty technique. Five miles left and the NSX is the first to catch them, a good 5-6 seconds behind and closing!
"Oh, he's lucked out! The lead of Peak Angle has done it again, everyone! Now can he hold his spot, or will second rookie NSX own up to both second and first?!"
> The DJ keeps the crowd hyped, adrenaline kicks!
| "Now that's low."
>AM truly pissed. He breaks out of the splitstream, re adjusting his Fuel to a higher ratio and downshifting to really go neck to neck with the BMW.
"Show me what you got."
| (I'm falling asleep again noooo -AM)
| > With the final two mile straight, the BMW pushes, knowing AM's next to him.
>Oh, OH! HERE IT IS! COME ON GUYS IT'LL BE CLOSE!"
> The crowd roars! But so does the BMW, with his gearing set in fourth, he gets his rpm high as the NSX joins, a three way erupts! The NSX with a disadvantage climbs with nitrous, now aligned to AM's door. The BMW holds his line on raw power, bumper bumper placing with AM's 240z and with the final quarter.. A photo finish!
| (I'll take a happy second. But that drift team still at the parking tower? I'm have something good for them in store. I'll finish some dialogue before I sleep)
>AM steps out of his car, happy with the event.
"Fucking Aces! Nice sprint man!"
| (Gotcha, and yeah. Aki, the lead, was watching you instead of doing the city cruise, so he'll be around. Also I'm gonna have a thing for illegal racing, be ready for that next time. G'night though!)
The BMW stops next to him, stepping out and clapping.
"Yeah.. You were pretty damn good yourself! Good job!"
| "Woo! What a race, that was a grand show, grand show indeed! I'd kill to see that again! No, not literally.."
> The DJ jokes.
| "As you probably saw on mile 5, straights are not my strong point."
>AM goes back to his car, digging in his bag in the car. He returns with 3 envelopes.
"This is for you, the NSX, and if you have a guy who does your cars, him too.
>Inside, is a sticker of N0-CLUB, and a SIM card, with a letter included.
[Welcome to N0-Club. We meet up weekly to race and develop cars. This invite us exclusive to you. You do not have to leave your team to be a part of our group.]
| > The guy takes it and looks, nodding with some excitement in his eyes. He in return, waves to the Porsche driver arriving, and they bring what looks a giant case of zenny!
"Awesome, I appreciate it. Name's Edward James, by the way. You did beat my rookie, so your share is in that case, 350Kz. Thanks for racing!"
| "It can go to the war chest for the club, it will be a nice boost for the Devs. 2 rules by the way, first name basis, and we don't talk about our personal life. It keeps the members of the group safe from prying eyes."
>AM begins to call a number, and shortly, an unmarked van arrives, to refuel and swap tires on the 240z, and takes the chest with it.
"You happen to know any of the drift team events?"
| "Uh, actually yeah. Touge Union is racing something, They requested 'city spinouts' on the event after next, then they've found a good hillside road for a true touge race on the fifth event.. Of course, React's probably gonna crash in the city races, but y'know..."
>Edward chuckles. Their racers letting loose before heading back to the garage, some cars follow whilst others stay to race.
| "Alright. Who are these React boys?"
>AM sits on the hood of his car.
| (good night)
| (Gnight!)
"Uh, React.."
> He clears his throat and takes a look around.
"They are.. The fastest. I wouldn't really think about them much, but they participate in our racing league, and actual 'Illegal' street racing. Team React Session is brutal, not actually aggressive to beat the shit out of ya', but they race like noone else: fast, and good. Used t' it was Apex glide, then this one guy.. Now you can almost always assume a fast unmarked car is Team React Session. React f'short.
| "Mmm. Well, next time we can bring a difrent car, because this was set of drifting. But today, let's go recruit someone from the Touge Union."
>AM planning for meeting React.
| > Edward gives a face of surprise.
"Recruit Touge? What's the idea here?"
> Edward opens the door of his car, getting ready to get in.
| "Because this is a drift car, and I need to test it sideways, and our not club can always do with more members right now. See you at the Lot!"
>AM gets in to his car, and begins the ride back, at a crusing speed with the mufflers on, making the car seem like it still has its stock engine.
| > He watches and chuckles, climbing in to his BMW and following, the rest of the team staying for the other races.

| > The Peak Angle team has made their way with AM to the outskirts of G.C, now on a road that surrounds the city nearly entirely. Cars surround the area of starting as members of the Noise bomb and nitrocide organization sets up the racing start and finish. As the first driver that challenged AM lines up, suddenly four other drivers line up with him!
