==================
After that crazy night Sandstorm decided to send a fake illusionary clone to class in her place so she can sleep in. Ryosuke was surprised to hear that Sandstorm wasn't the fastest on that mountain. Sandstorm claimed there was on person who could give her a run for her money... and the other one could out right destroy her on the down hill.
After she woke up at 3 in the afternoon. she walked across the street to her neighbors house to buy tofu at that time Iketani came in.
"Sir could we please have you race your 86 on Akina's down hill?" Iketani says to old man Bunta
"You know this could be a good chance for Takumi to race." Sandstorm says with a smile grabbing her bag of tofu.
"You should know he doesn't like driving little miss." Bunta says to Sandstorm rubbing the back of his head.
"I heard from my sister that a girl is going to ask him out. Maybe he would do it for a tank of gas." Sandstorm says with a smirk.
==============
A few hours later Sandstorm comes back to the tofu shop just before they close.
"Hey Mr. Fujiwara can you take me to a local shrine I really wanna see what they look like?" Sandstorm asks.
"Do I look like a tour guide missy?" Bunta says not amused.
Sandstorm holds out a pair of keys. And the keychain has a tag that says bandit.
"I just finished working on my new car and was looking for a professional test driver." Sandstorm says with a smirk noticing she got his attention.
Bunta looks back at her to see her clothes covered in grease and oil.
"Fine I won't do this all the time." Bunta replies a little excited to try an American car. Granted he still thinks they can't handle like the Japanese ones.
===============
They walk outside to see a black Pontiac Trans AM with a Phoenix painted on its hood.
"To think you would have a car from a nearly 20 year old movie." Bunta says noticing the bandit.
"Just so you know I completely changed the engine. Your in for a big surprise." Says with a smile that reflects her pure anticipation.
However Bunta sees and thinks of it as a little scary.
"What kind of changes?" Bunta asks regretting it quickly after.
"Well it's an overhead valve Hemi engine... however the only original part is the block which i have bored out and reinforced with thin sleeves of titanium ( lie it's actually with magic metal alloy of adamantite, vibranium, and adamantium).
There are also the custom titanium pistons. The custom camshaft. The engine heads were completely redone as well as the exhaust manifolds. I modified the carburetors and the air filter is also a performance one." Sandstorm keeps talking and as much as Bunta is a car person he lost her.
Bunta goes and sits down in the driver's seat while Sandstorm who sits in the passenger seat starts to talk about how light the powered steering is so it doesn't hurt performance and the suspension.
Bunta still ignoring her turns on the car and give the engine a good rev.
"Hahahaha" Sandstorm breaks out laughing at the face he makes.
"Girly how much horse power does this thing make?" Bunta asks completely scared at the death machine he just got into.
"Roughly 779 I didn't take it above 5.5k rpm although it should able to handle more. Also I broke the torque measuring tool broke at 1.2k ftlbs." Sandstorm says with a smile.
Bunta looks at her with horror and thinks ' she and Jun Kitami would get along'.
"You know I built this car to defeat a local Legend in Tokyo." Sandstorm says with a smile.
"Really?" Bunta asks putting the car in first and slowly drives them out of the city.
"Yeah it's a midnight blue nissans s30z" Sandstorm says with a smile.
Meanwhile Bunta is horrified that that driver killer is still out on the road.
"No matter what... do not let my son drive one of your cars." He says completely seriously.
"But I have a car that's horse power is 1713, I can't even measure its torque." Sandstorm says pouting a little.
Bunta just responds by driving normally trying his absolute hardest to ignore her.
