Iketani took a deep breath when he returned home late at night. He felt unprecedentedly exhausted. He had spent a lot of effort persuading Yukiko to lend him the GTL for the race. He had almost worn his lips out. In the end, he had to agree to a few conditions before Yukiko reluctantly agreed to lend him the car.
Because many things had happened that night, Iketani, who was mentally and physically exhausted, quickly went to bed. There were still many things that he needed to do tomorrow.
The next morning, Iketani woke up early and checked the wound on his head. Although the bleeding had stopped, the wound had not improved much. It seemed that he would need to bandage it for a few days.
After walking out for breakfast, Iketani returned home and called the owner of the gas station to tell him about his situation. It was definitely impossible for him to go to work today. He and Yukiko had already agreed to adjust the state of the GTL, so they were in a hurry.
" What did you say Iketani..." The gas station owner on the other end of the phone was naturally extremely surprised. In his impression, Iketani was not the kind of person who would get into a car accident.
Iketani only told him that he needed to rest for a while and did not tell him that he still planned to continue the competition. Otherwise, it would be very troublesome.
After waiting at home for a while, the sound of a heavy car engine and Yukiko's shouts could be heard outside. Iketani immediately walked out of the house and saw a big red GTL parked in front of his house. A beautiful woman leaned against him. Who else could it be but Kudo Yukiko?
"How are you? Are you better today?”Youxi asked with concern.
"Much better. Although it hurts a little, it won't affect my normal activities.”Iketani said honestly. He opened the door and sat in the driver's seat, while Akiko sat in the passenger's seat.
"How do you feel about this car? Is it smooth driving? After all, it's quite different from the S13 you drove before.”Arisu Noshiko looked at Iketani beside her and asked. She naturally hoped that Iketani would say that he was not used to it and give up on the competition. That would be the best.
Unfortunately, it was not difficult for Iketani to drive the GTL. He had driven a 4wd with more than 280 horsepower before he transmigrated. Strictly speaking, he had more experience than driving an S13. Therefore, under Arisu Kiko's surprised gaze, Iketani skillfully started the engine and stepped on the accelerator. He drove the GTL without any awkwardness, as if it was his own car, driving at a constant speed on the morning street.
" Have you driven a GTL before?" Arisu Kiko asked curiously as she watched Iketani operate the car without hesitation. The GTL was a Japanese national treasure sports car. Many people had seen it before, but it was rare for them to actually sit in it and drive it.
"To me, any car is the same.”Iketani said calmly, looking a little pretentious, but he was right. Other than F1, he had driven almost all kinds of cars, big and small. He had relied on this for a living in the past. It was just an old GTL 32, which was nothing.
"How do you plan to modify the car? Do you have enough time? You only have ten hours to prepare at most. Even if you manage to modify the car, you won't have time to adapt.”Youxi said with some frustration. Time was really too tight.
"Brakes, tires, shock absorption…due to the time constraint, there is no way to make perfect adjustments. I can only refer to the original S13 configuration to a certain extent.”Iketani said as he drove. He felt a little helpless, especially when it came to shock absorption. This was a very delicate job. If it was really perfect and flawless, it would take at least one to two months or more. However, he obviously did not have the time to do so at the moment. Fortunately, the GTL's 280 horsepower was much stronger than the original S13.
"No matter what, don't forget what we agreed on yesterday!”Arisu emphasized.
"Perhaps you will become my goddess of victory.”Iketani muttered to himself. Because he spoke so softly, Akiko could barely hear him.
When Iketani arrived at the parts factory in his GTL, the boss was stunned by the bandage on his head.
" I was in a car accident…" Iketani explained with a bitter smile, then explained his purpose.
"Modification of this GTL? You're not planning to use this GTL for a race, are you??”The parts factory owner seemed to have realized something and looked at Iketani with a strange gaze.
After Iketani nodded, the parts factory owner looked at him as if he was looking at a lunatic. After a while, he shook his head and said,"I don't want to harm you. I advise you to give up this competition. Young man, don't be so impulsive.”
When he was young, he was also a car player. He had seen many drivers who did not care about their lives, but this was the first time he had seen someone who was about to race after a car accident.
"I have a reason to fight. If you don't help me, I'll ask someone else to help me, but I don't think it'll be as effective as you, so please, I swear nothing will happen to me!”Chi Gu promised with a solemn expression.
In the end, due to Iketani's insistence, the parts factory owner agreed. He did not waste any time and immediately called his subordinates to start working. Although it was not a huge modification, it was definitely not easy to complete Iketani's request before 10 pm. It was not something that ordinary people could do. This was also the reason why Iketani came to this boss. It was easy to do things with acquaintances.
