Southern drifters Trail

Ok this is a truly new experience for me this chapter is unlike anything I have ever written so…please enjoy

Disclaimers: Shigeno and Tokyopop. Next are car companies Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Porsche, nismo, and others.

Ok last time Kenneth returned to Japan and sent all of his cars minus the 280Z and the Buell back to South Carolina and went out and found a new project car a Nismo 400R in a junkyard so he brought it back to life and is now driving a 400R R33. But I cut the last chapter short because I didn't think having the completion of the 400R and Kenneth and Salina's wedding in the same chapter would be right. I disided that the wedding would be a different story a side story so here we go.

Chap. 10:Learning about the Curse.

After the Wedding and honeymoon Kenneth felt revived and had thought he would try his hand at highway racing in the new 400R.

He headed for Wangan highway were I was rumored there was an amazing Lancia 037.

Kenneth smiled as he approached the rumored Lancia after spotting it on the highway ahead. "Well shall we my friend" Kenneth grinned as he talked to the car and seemed to have a conversation with it.

The 400R pulled up next to the Lancia and revved its engine and motioned for a challenge. Even though there was another car currently tacking on the Lancia but it was obviously not a challenge.

The driver nodded and the two powerful cars took off with acceleration matching that of a fighter jet. The 400R was an early leader but the 037 were suddenly on his tail. Most drivers would have panicked but Kenneth looked in his rear view mirror and said, "this should be fun to bad I don't have the mongoose."

The two cars neared 239mhp Kenneth suddenly set System of a Down BYOB to play. The Lancia and 400R stared rounding a turn when the Lancia hit the 400R and the car shook violently. "What the fuck! Fine then I'll play along!" screamed Kenneth as he pushed the 400R to the next level.

Suddenly the rear let loose and the 400R went into a spin that was as violent as a flat spin in an F-14. Kenneth suddenly remembered something a strange racer told him after he found out were the 400R came from. "That car is cursed you say it want to win your wrong it wants to kill you."

The 400R approached the corner rail at 150mhp. Kenneth snap out of his momentary reflection and yanked the E-Brake sliding the rear end into the wall instead of hitting it head on. The rear smashed into the wall and was obliterated the front and passenger compartments were still intact but damaged severely. Kenneth exited the car and looked at it in disbelief. "The R32 that the 037 was originally racing pulled up and offered Kenneth a ride. Kenneth called for a tow truck and accepted the ride.

At a rest station the lancia sat as the R32 pulled up. Kenneth exited the car and walked up to the driver of the Lancia. The driver turned to him and said, "What's your name?" Kenneth looked at him coldly and replied, "Kenneth Ethridge. And your is?"

"Sagara" said the man.

"Well sagara I would say you won." Said Kenneth with a smile on his face. The smile surprised everyone who saw what happened. "Well Kenneth the way you driver was deadly didn't you fell any danger?" Kenneth shook his head.

Sagara thought to himself, ok he is either insane or he is so used to danger it doesn't faze him. As if by signal Kenneth said, "just not fazed." Sagara looked at him really strange now. Kenneth smiled and said, "I know what you were thinking anyone who heard what I said would think the same thing."

Kenneth pulled out his cell phone and called someone. "Hey when you pick you pick up the 400R would you bring the Buell by the Rest stop here?……..ok see you in a few."

The two racers got along really well especially considering that sagara forced Kenneth to crash.

Soon a Flatbed tow truck pulled up with Kenneth's Red Buell FireBolt XB12RR . the motorcycle was off loaded and the truck headed off to the crash. Sagara looked at Kenneth confused and finally said, "I thought you would be pissed about crashing your 400R." Kenneth turned to sagara and smiled "well I was warned that off the track that car would kill me." Soon the Beull was gone along with Kenneth.

Back at home Kenneth was greeted by a very worried Salina. "Kenneth what were you thinking!" Salina was royally pissed. But it was all from worry. After explaining everything the forestation went silent and the now married couple went to bed.

The next morning Salina had her normal morning plus a lot of worrying about what Kenneth would do today.

Over at the E3 shop the speed stars and takahashi brothers were horrified to see the totaled 400R. Kenneth had ordered a new R33 body for it. But informed everyone that the 400R would never race the streets. "but why this thing would be a monster on the streets." "yes but it is a monster without chains I can't control it in those conditions."

Suddenly Kenneth got a call he was going to Europe to the opening ceremony of E3's euro branch. This bugged the others. he hasn't been there lately. "sorry guys but while i'm in Europe I look for something to race here."

Soon Kenneth and Salina were on a flight to Germany were the new shop was to be located. "please fasten your seatbelts we will be landing shortly" said the sturatist over the intercom. The plane landed and soon Kenneth and Salina were on their way to a Hotel near the shop.

Upon arrival Car did a quick search of the phone book for salvage yards. "a Porsche only junk yard that sounds promising." Salina did shopping with Kenneth's mother who came with his father to the ceremony.

Upon arrival at the yard Kenneth was greeted by an old man the German version of an American salvage yard owner. He was set loose into the yard to look for what he wanted. as he walked he saw a sliver 1986 RUF BTR and a totaled black 1996 RUF CTR2.

Kenneth approached the two cars and checked the BTR it seemed in great condition minus the fucked drive train. And then I thought about it and checked the CTR2 drive train. Kenneth smiled and said, "Now this will be fun."

Kenneth purchased the two cars and had them readied to be sent back to Japan after the ceremony. After the ceremony Kenneth and Salina were on their way home. Along with the BTR and the CTR2 a few hours behind.

After landing they went through the normal airport red tape and by the time they were out the RUFs had arrived and were on a flatbed tow truck headed to the shop. That night Kenneth and Salina slept deeper that they had in a long time.

The next morning went normal. And then Kenneth head to the E3 shop and began fitting the drive train of the CTR2 into the BTR. New suspension, a new 944hp/9800rpm and 827.16ftlb/8800rpm through the AWD system. A pair of Buick GNX style wheels arrived and were rapped in high performance rubber and put on the newly revived BTR. The car was giving a fresh clear and done.

The Takahashi brothers stopped by and were amazed after seeing the BTR on the Dino.

"944hp! That's insane!" Keisuke was in shock. Kenneth chose not to drive the monster on the mountain yet but he knew were he could make its maiden race.

"sop Kenneth were are you going to run it first" asked Keisuke. Kenneth got into the BTR and said, "Wangan Highway against the Satan 037……."

OK there is chapter 10 and for those who couldn't guess outlaw02 it the next in the sight of the BTR . I can't wait to see how the next chapt4er turns out I'm not sure there might be some serious changes or it could keep going like it is. Not even I know what I'll do next. And FYI Nik and his FC are next.

R&R this is insane I've ended another one short but this one is for the reason of change in the racing style and I need to learn more about it. Well till next time.
