God Of Racing

Road: Two-Way, Two-Lane

Total Length: 90 Kilometers Round Trip

Route: Shangxin Street (foot of the mountain) – Huangjiaoya (mountain top) – Changsheng Bridge (back foot of the mountain) – Huangjiaoya – Shangxin Street 

Due to the scarcity of straight roads and the fact that it was a two-way, two-lane road, overtaking typically happened at Huangjiaoya and Changsheng Bridge. At Huangjiaoya, the road widened to a two-way, four-lane stretch, offering a rare opportunity for passing. The current record for this route was held by Liu Tang, with a time of 43 minutes and 26 seconds.

...

"43 minutes and 26 seconds? That record is weak! I'll break it today! Baby, it's your debut on this track. Make them remember you. Perform well! Let's go." He stylishly tossed the information out the window. By the time the paper hit the ground, the car was already a distant speck, leaving nothing but a cloud of dust in its wake.

...

Shangxin Street - Intersection.

A group of young people were chatting non-stop, giving the street a bustling atmosphere. "It's here!" Everyone quieted down, all looking to the right. It was so orderly, it looked like a drill set up by a PE teacher.

"Wow, baby, see that? They're all standing still to admire you. Don't disappoint these fans later. But wait, do I really have such a big reputation?" Puzzled, he glanced in the rearview mirror. "How embarrassing, I misread the situation! Kids, you're underestimating me. I'll show you the consequences of that. Hmph! Uh, isn't this supposed to be a one-on-one? Why does it look like a magic trick, splitting into two?"

"Hey, kid! You're parked in Brother Liu's spot!" A yellow-haired guy swaggered over, swinging his arms.

"Brother Liu? Oh, sorry, sorry!" he replied, taken aback by the arrogance.

"Brother, I'm sorry too, but you can't park there either."

"Hey, that's too much! Can't park there, can't park here. I'm here to race, where should I park?"

"Here to race?"

"Yeah, can I park here now?"

"Brother Yellow, what's going on? How can his car be parked there, that is the starting position, don't you know there's a race today?" A man got out of the car parked in the originally occupied spot, glanced at the young man, and started yelling at Brother Yellow.

"But Brother Liu, he said he's here to participate too!"

"That's right, I'm here to participate in the race! You must be Liu Tang, right?" Meeting his gaze, the young man nodded vigorously.

"Shorty, come here!" After looking at him puzzled for a while, "Who exactly is racing with me today? How come there's an extra one now?"

Another male figure walked over. Calling him Shorty wasn't wrong—his build was quite big, but his height was about the same as a sedan! After flipping through his notebook for a while, "Did you call to make a reservation?"

"Reservation?" He was a bit dumbfounded.

"Brother Yellow, deal with him! It's almost 2:30! Shorty, move the car!"

Liu Tang took one look at his face and knew this young man was a novice! He frowned and got into his car.

"Brother, please don't make it hard for me, can you give up the spot?" Brother Yellow had a bitter look on his face.

"Do you really need to make reservations here?" he asked again, unwilling to give up.

"I say, brother, you've asked three times now! Aren't you tired? This absolutely requires a reservation! And if you want to race against Brother Liu, you'll have to queue up because he only races once a day!" If it weren't for fear that this young man might do something mischievous, Brother Yellow would have run him off long ago! "Please, please don't ask any more questions, I want to listen to the live broadcast!"

"Live broadcast?"

"Damn it! You don't even know that there are dedicated personnel on the track responsible for reporting the race to us?"

"Ahem... 'Yellow' Brother, one last question, really, the last one!" He asked carefully, with extra caution.

Brother Yellow had no energy left to speak; he just nodded weakly.

"If the race starts, can I follow behind them?"

Brother Yellow was stunned, "You want to..."

"Is there a rule that says this isn't allowed?"

"I don't think so? But this doesn't seem to meet Brother Liu's requirements..."

"Didn't you say yourself there's no rule? Relax, just treat me as a passerby!" The young man heard there was a chance and patted Brother Yellow with a grin!

Only then did he carefully examine those two opponents who didn't even consider him a competitor, unconsciously muttering: "That is this year's Mondeo (produced by Changan Ford), right? Maximum speed 190 km/h, front-wheel drive, four-cylinder, Duratec-HE DOHC 16V, displacement 2000mL, compression ratio 10.0:1, 105/6000 Kw/rpm, 0-100 Km/h acceleration time should be 13.70... Brother Yellow, do people really race against your Brother Liu with this kind of car?"

"Yeah! What's wrong?"

"What's wrong? Can't you see for yourself? This car is fine for normal city driving, but for racing, hehe, I think it's better to forget about it! Look at what car your Brother Liu is driving, it's a BMW known for its speed, 6 cylinders with 4 valves per cylinder... maximum speed 250 km/h, 0-100 km/h acceleration takes only 5.9 seconds, and 80-120 km/h acceleration in fourth gear takes only 5.8 seconds. I'm speechless. How can these people's configurations compete with your Brother Liu!"

"Wow, you really know cars?"

"Damn it! How can someone who doesn't understand cars come to race? Even people who just watch races should understand, right? Unless you... you're a racing idiot? I'm dizzy, just pretend I didn't say anything earlier!..."

"Actually, I'm just a street thug. Brother Liu thought I looked decent enough, so he let me come to intimidate some kids. How could I know as much as you guys... But what you just said was really good, I want to learn. Can you continue? Or maybe talk about your own car?"

If he had studied this hard in school, I don't think he would've become a thug! Shaking his head, "My car?" Now he got excited again...

"You know what kind of car this is, right? Yes, an Audi A4! But, hehe, it's not the Audi A4 you've seen before. This is the DTM version: the engine is a regular naturally aspirated V8 engine, managed by Bosch Ms2.9; 4000cc displacement; 460 horsepower, cool right?; torque over 500Nm; rear-wheel drive; 2-disc CFC clutch; sequential 6-speed racing gearbox; adjustable multi-plate limited-slip differential; drive shaft - constant velocity reverse tripod universal joint; rack and pinion power steering; dual-circuit hydraulic braking system, lightweight alloy calipers, front and rear ventilated carbon fiber brake discs, driver-adjustable brake balance; aluminum cast wheels - front: 10x18 inches, rear 11x18 inches; Dunlop SP Sport Maxx tires - front 265/660-R18, rear 280/660-R18; 70-liter fuel tank; at its lightest weight including driver, it's only 1080 kg! Cool, right?"

"Cool! What you said was really cool! Now I really want to study and learn about cars."

"Then go study... What do you mean what I said is cool, I'm asking if my car is cool. Forget it, it's wasted on you!" The young man rolled his eyes.

"Do you want to race along with them?"

"Yeah."

"Then why are you still standing here? They're about to start!"

"Damn it, I'm not talking to you anymore. Just carefully listen to your 'live broadcast' later, it'll definitely be exciting!!!"

Quickly sitting in his car, he fastened his seatbelt, started the car, and carefully checked the instrument panel statuses. Bingo!!! Absolutely peak condition!

We're just street racing, and they actually want me to make a reservation! Hmph, let me show you what real racing is~~~~~~

The cheering crowd suddenly fell silent as a green-haired kid entered the scene! "Wow, is street racing always like this?"

The young man's heart also tensed up along with the silence of the scene and the green flag slowly being raised by the youth. "Zhuifeng, what's wrong with you? Have you forgotten what you said earlier? Calm down! Calm down!! Whew... Let's go!!"

As the green flag came down, two cars, no, three cars, shot out simultaneously!
