Chapter 4 – First Race
I drove back to the front of the street and saw a crowd already forming; I saw two other vehicles rolling up onto what appeared to be the start line, a Ford Focus, and Mazda MX-5 Miata both slightly modified
I drove to the right of Mazda and parked my car everyone looking at me and grinning and the guy in Miata laughing saying "Why don't you call a taxi you'll get to the finish line faster than in this". I just looked away and saw a a nicely modified, black Volkswagen Golf Mark V with Mantis body kit, a Reaper spoiler, BBS Rims, Tim Shaffer vinyl and dark tinted window (A/N Vinyl from NFS U2).
As he pulled next to me he lowered his window and I saw Humphrey in the driver seat, he turned his head to me and said "I thought I'll give you a bit of challenge, to not make it so easy for you" he smiled.
I smiled and said "Alright, I'll win anyway" I chuckled and got my on-board computer and set the course of the race, a simple lap around the avenue.
We all revved our engines as a she-wolf stepped in front of our cars, pointing her paws at our cars signalling to get ready, I kept revving my engine as she raised her paws in the air, I put my car into first, still revving my engine, keeping my left foot on the brake.
Moments later she quickly let her paws fall signalling the start of the race.
Split second later I slammed my right foot on the accelerator and lifted my left foot of the brakes rather quickly accelerating to 40 MPH shifting up into second gear, I managed to pass the other drivers put Humphrey was way ahead off, "Shit, he's fast".
I saw him enter into the first right corner and I followed him through starting on the outside and ending on the inside, it's technique I learned and realised it saves you valuable seconds.
As I exited the corner I managed to line myself up with Humphrey and drag behind him.
I saw next corner coming up, and I saw there was a path going between a building and a little park creating a perfect shortcut.
I saw Humphrey brake hard as I slowed down a little bit and took the shortcut making me go into first place and Humphrey being around 2 seconds behind me. I chuckled to myself as I shifted into third gear going over 70 MPH now, slowing down as I went into left bend and braking as I entered a sharp right as I exited the bend.
I slammed the accelerator once again and looked in my rear-view mirror and saw Mazda coming to my right, "Oh no you don't" I said to myself as I turned my steering wheel to the right thus turning my car to the right as I blocked his attempt to overtake me and quickly straightening my car out.
As I turned into a long right bend he went on inside as I went on the middle and he overtook me, but he didn't stay first for long, as we exited the corner I had greater speed than him and quickly overtook him before going into a sharp left.
I looked in the rear-view mirror again and I could see Humphrey coming up fast behind me. The road in front of me was straight so I decided to use my N2O.
As soon as I pressed than button I could feel my car getting a sudden boost in speed, and man did I love that feeling? I could feel the adrenaline rising. As I looked into the rear-view mirror and saw Humphrey still gaining, I guess he used his Nitrous as well.
I saw the next corner coming up and I was going a bit too fast and Humphrey still gaining, I decided to engine brake this corner, so as I was entering the I shifted down to third, not putting my foot on the brakes, on the entrance to the corner slowing down to 60 MPH, then in the middle shifted back up to fourth quickly gaining that speed I lost.
I looked back into rear-view mirror and saw that Humphrey was getting further away. I looked on my computer screen and saw an S bend coming up.
So I accelerated to 75 MPH and quickly pulling the handbrake and letting it go sending my car into over steer, I drifted through the first bend straightening my car out and putting it into second drift straight after keeping the car under control.
AS I exited the S bend I could see the finish line and accelerated towards it.
As I crossed the finish line the crowd roared and clapped, I bet they didn't expect me to finish first.
(A/N hi and thanks guys for reading the fourth chapter of Underground Street Racing I hope you enjoyed reading.
