Chereads / Kings Of Speed / Chapter 7 - 7

Chapter 7 - 7

Red Golf 2nd generation and yellow Ibiza lined up at the starting line. A man in an orange vest shouted: "Start!" They moved.

Majka took the lead before the first corner. Volkswagen was just behind her.

Her opponent's name was Artur Skrzypczak. He is not a regular guest on the route, but he has won over a dozen races in the last three years.

He was following Majka all the time. It can be said that their bumpers were only a few centimeters apart. All the time he pressed the girl to go faster. They've just passed a long straight. Skrzypczak did not even try to attack there. Now he was approaching the bend with limited visibility. It was here that he attacked for the first time. However, the attempt failed. The guy did not give up, however. He noticed that his opponent slowed down in front of the bridge. She was probably afraid to break the chassis. But he? Is he going to lose to the rookie? He has already been behind the wheel for three years! It certainly can't be done! He left his left wheel to the side of the road. He caught up with her! Wait a bridge. Fortunately, the bridge on its side is wider because there is a roadside which it makes for a pedestrian walkway. They both entered and jumped. However, the driver of the red car coped better with the landing. I rushed forward. Skrzypczak took the lead. Piwonska was not far behind. Now she was right behind him. Golf sped along the middle of the road as Seat slid closer to the right edge, Volkswagen did it too. Skrzypczak closely followed Majka's every move. He didn't let himself take his victory till the end.

Majka and Hanka sat down against the wall and studied silently for a history class. Three boys from their class stopped far away. Although they had textbooks in their hands and searched through them, they had more interesting topics for conversation than the partitions of Poland.

"Have you heard of this Ibiza girl?" Asked first boy.

"Yhm, finally a chick decided to race."

"She even reportedly managed to win the race." Said the third.

"I saw her defeat Clio."

"And do you remember her name and was she pretty?"

"Man, I didn't see her face and I don't remember her names."

"Damn it. It is a pity that I did not go then."

"Okay, the opportunity will probably come again. If. Someone wins their debut, they will not stop racing from day to day.|

" She had a fluke and that's it."

"Luck, it would be like winning by centimeters and not leaving your opponent far behind."

Hanka nudged a friend who was absorbed in the boys' conversation.

"Learn."

"I do it."

"Right. Eavesdropping."

"Not at all."

Further conversation and learning were interrupted by a bell saying that it was time to verify your knowledge.

"Tobiasz Dudek." The boy stretched out his hand.

"Majka Piwonska."

"It is a pity that it will not fall to me notebook to beat the first female chaser on this route."

"Phi!" She snorted. "You'd better show what you can do instead of being smart."
