Introduction
As we know it, street racing has is a popular "hobby" and appeals to many on a multitude of levels. The challenge, the exhilaration, the fame, and just because it looks cool are some of those appeals. One such racer like any other had one of those reasons. It was a normal one, but it pushed his dedication an determination to be the best. In his young adult life the man drove what could be called an oldie. He used an eight-six. His first few racers weren't complete wins, but eventually he began to develop a strategy to win. He learned on some races the car needed to be tweaked to suit the road. By the way, this man drove on Mountain Passes most of the time. The downhill was his specialty. A few years passed, the racer was driving and drift like a pro. He had his own style and understood what needed to be done to win. Everyone knew him and his eight-six. They wanted to challenge him and they would lose. Eventually the man was setting records in foreign countries. He wasn't in it for the fame anymore. He was in it to inspire other drivers, to make them understand there is always room for improvement. Nothing is perfect. It worked as planned and the drivers he challenged learned their lesson, as well as gained a tad bit of humility.
This went on for a few more years and finally the racer went back to his homeland of Japan. He settled down, married, bought a new car, and started a car repair shop, he enjoys fixing cars, in the city he held his best record for. It was a quiet life, but occasionally the old racer would take his old eight-six on a spin around town or in the mountain pass nearby. The screech of tires could be heard and the city welcomed the sound of hard work and dedication.
Farther Along the Road
Now like any other happy couple, the racer and his wife had a child. He changed his ways now that he had precious cargo and that became his life. It was a baby girl. The years of happiness were brief though. When the girl was just four years old her mother died of in a car crash. She was in it and still years after she would have nightmares of it. Her father suffered as well. He got into a habit of smoking, drinking, and going to bars for some "fun". However, one day after coming home drunk as a newt on her birthday.The old man gave his daughter the keys to her new car, a Suzuki Cappuccino. He said he was proud of such a good kid she had become, that she needed to get over her fear of being in a car, to live a good life, and something about delivering the car parts downhill. The catch was she needed to use the eight-six and deliver parts for the business till she finished high school. She was still in seventh grade and with the disappointment weighing on her mind she took the eight-six keys resentfully. Her father caught her before she left and said the water in the cup holder couldn't spill or else the parts wouldn't get damaged. She didn't think it was possible but the old man said she couldn't come back inside till the delivery was done.
The this was the first time she tried driving, she could get everything naturally. But the water spilled and parts were damaged when she reached the bottom of mountain road. She went back her dad nearly attacked her when he had to give her more parts. The time it took her to deliver took her two hours. A few days went on of this, she cut it to 1 hour and 30 minutes. Then 1 hour, 30 minutes, 20, and finally 10 minutes. By then she had learned what need to be done with the water. It became boring, so like her father before. She began to see how close she could get to the guard rail when she drifted on the corners. This was the start of a new rising star.
