The cheers outside suddenly became louder, and it was obvious that this new guy was very popular.
Owen was a little curious. Max had previously told him that there were three cars in today's race, but he only mentioned Dom, and did not say who the other driver was. Now it seemed that he was not a simple person either.
What Irving saw in the rearview mirror was also an old-fashioned fastback muscle car, similar in appearance to Dom's Dodge Challenger. Among the three cars, only Irving's Camaro had some streamlined design and a fairly fashionable appearance.
Owen and Dom both looked towards the middle. A car head slowly appeared in the middle of them. As the car slowly moved forward, the driver of the car was finally unveiled.
It's him!
Owen secretly thought that it was no wonder he was so popular. He took a look at the figure wearing a suit in the driver's seat and saw that it was indeed his style. The other people sitting in the passenger seat were all sexy beauties, but the person sitting in his passenger seat was a dog.
The people in the car looked at Owen and Dom on both sides, but did not say hello. Owen knew this guy, and it was not the first time he had met him, but they had not spoken to each other.
Monica looked at the crazy people around her in confusion, then looked at the lonely man and the dog in the car next to her, and couldn't help but ask: "Who is this guy? Why are so many people cheering for him?"
Owen also glanced at the figure and explained: "His name is John Wick. He was once a legendary killer and the king of the Los Angeles underground. However, he retired after getting married and never touched the killing business again."
As if waiting for Monica to laugh, Owen paused before continuing: "This man is good at two things in his life, killing and driving, and there are only two things he loves most, one is his wife, and the other is him
dog..."
"It's really strange..."
Monica's eyes showed curiosity, it was obviously the first time he had heard of this person.
"It's true, this man once did something. His wife died not long after he retired. He started drinking alcohol every day, and he became depressed. He didn't even go out, and he completely faded out of people's sight.
, resulting in many younger generations not knowing him.
There was a time when the son of a gang boss fell in love with his car and not only robbed his car, but also beat his dog to death. Then he started to hunt down the gangster all over Los Angeles by himself, without anyone interceding.
Used because his dog was killed.
In the end, guess what, not only did the gangster die, but the dad of the gangster killed the entire gang in order to protect his son. His name also resounded in the underground world of Los Angeles after that incident...
"
"Just for a dog, one person destroyed a gang?"
"Yes, just for a dog. After that, the whole gang in Los Angeles spread the news that no one should mess with his dog, he will really go crazy..."
"The police don't care? What about the FBI?" Monica felt like she was listening to a fairy tale.
Irving shook his head and said, "I won't care. He just wants revenge. Once the revenge is over, it's over. If he is really pissed off and returns to his old business, it will be a nightmare for Los Angeles."
Monica said oh, he just listened to these underworld secrets as a story, and it sounded quite exciting.
At this time, a three o'clock girl walked to the starting line and attracted everyone's attention. Everyone knew that the competition was about to begin.
The three drivers sat quietly in the car, and all three cars began to roar, slamming the accelerator, and the speed had reached the most appropriate position. They only waited for an order to release the brakes, and these three-headed monsters started to drive.
Will rush out.
"Boom~~Boom~~Boom~~"
The roaring continued, and the three o'clock girl suddenly untied her bra and swung it into the sky.
The topless sexy girl was still blowing kisses to the drivers in the three cars, but the three drivers seemed to be focusing on her bra as if she were nothing.
The moment the bra hit the ground, the brakes of the three cars were released at the same time. Under the surging power of the V8 engine, the cars shot out like arrows.
Of the three cars, Irving is the slowest. There's no way it can be helped, it's just like that on the straights. Dom's and John Wick's cars are both constant winners in straight races, and there's no way they can compare to his Camaro.
Especially Dom's Dodge Challenger, which is simply abnormal. The modified V8 engine not only enhances the power, but also adds a special air-cooling system. The extra part is exposed outside the front hood, which adds to the car itself.
A strong breath.
I don’t know how he modified the engine, but the front of the car actually lifted up the moment it started. It is indeed a straight-line monster that is said to be able to run a quarter mile in 9 seconds.
Owen's hands and feet worked together, the clutch and gear lever were constantly changing, and the speedometer went from 0 to 80, then from 80 to 120, and then from 120 to 180.
The car is getting faster and faster, but the distance between him and other cars is getting farther and farther. This cannot continue. The straight line must not fall too far behind, otherwise it will be useless no matter how good his skills are later.
Thinking of this, Owen opened a cover buckle, and inside was a red button, which was the start switch of the liquid nitrogen thruster.
Anyone who plays with modified cars knows this thing. This thing is basically a powerful acceleration tool in straight-line racing. Unfortunately, it can only be used for a few seconds, otherwise the car will definitely be scrapped over time.
Dom and John Wick must have this thing in their cars, but it's just not the time to use it yet. Owen actually shouldn't use it, but he must close the gap as soon as possible, otherwise there will be no chance of using it later.
"Boom~~~"
As the red button was pressed, flames erupted from the rear of the car, and the speed increased dramatically. Owen held the steering wheel tightly with both hands. At this speed, even a large stone may cause the car to overturn, so be extremely careful.
Monica nervously grabbed the armrest next to her, but she felt a sense of relief in her heart.
The Camaro was advancing rapidly, with Dom's Dodge Challenger in front of it, followed by John Wick's Ford Mustang, one body length apart.
However, Irving's Camaro is constantly shortening the distance from the Ford Mustang at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon it has reached the length of a car body, and it is still shortening.
"Wow~~~~oh oh~~~~~~"
The enthusiasts watching around let out strange screams of excitement. They did not expect that such a heated scene would occur within half a minute of the start of the game.
Especially for the Camaro, it is too abnormal to use liquid nitrogen thrusters so early, but it happens to be this abnormality that makes it easier to ignite their emotions.
Owen in the car couldn't hear the strange screams from the spectators on both sides. All his attention was focused on the road ahead. Even if Monica spoke to him at this time, he wouldn't be able to hear her.
The speed was so fast that it almost reached the limit of human vision. Owen had to concentrate fully to see the road ahead clearly.
Irving sacrificed the Camaro's liquid nitrogen system and finally caught up with the Ford Mustang. At this time, the two cars were running parallel. John Wick was also an experienced veteran driver and would not be distracted by temporary gains and losses.
The two cars were speeding along the road side by side, with the butt of the Dodge not far ahead.
The liquid nitrogen has been exhausted, and the Camaro now relies solely on the power of the V8. Irving controls the speed while trying to seize a favorable position.
The straight line ahead ends and the first corner appears. This is Irving's opportunity.
"Squeak~~~"
There was a continuous sound of tire friction, and the three cars began to drift around the corner almost at the same time. The tires rubbed against the ground and emitted white smoke. The good position Irving had previously taken effect. At a smaller angle, Irving surpassed the Ford Mustang by half a mile.
Parking space, successfully took the lead and became second.
At this time, the Camaro was tightly locked behind the Dodge. While observing the Dodge in front, Irving was always paying attention to the Ford Mustang behind him. He used his parking space to block the Ford's forward angle several times, firmly occupying the second place.
Location.
It was another S-shaped curve. Irving turned the steering wheel and pulled the handbrake to drift, then immediately reversed the direction. While pressing the accelerator to the bottom, he pulled the handbrake again and drifted in the opposite direction.
After a quick maneuver, he successfully drifted through the S-shaped bend, but the distance from the Dodge was not much shortened.
Dom's skills are not bad either, and Dom has been suppressing him just like Irving suppressed the wild horses behind him. Unless there is an operational error, it will be difficult for Irving to surpass Dom in a short time.
