Chapter 1006 The Team Wins the Championship
Rachel laid out the rules, "Alright, tonight's the finals. We got 16 laps. When the gun goes off, the fastest car wins. All the cars are modded, but they stick to the rules."
The air buzzed with cheers, the smell of motor oil making the aspiring champions' and audience flooded with excitement, and engines revving up.
There were betting pools everywhere, and Rachel put her money on Team NOZ.
Rachel threw an arm around Natalie's shoulder, "Let's grab some grub first. There's a food stand over there. The race will start soon after we eat."
At 6 PM sharp, the race kicked off.
The crowd went wild.
Natalie was surprised to see so many girls here, cheering like crazy fans.
The gunshot rang out.
Engines roared, and the cars rocketed off.
Rachel yelled, "GO NOZ!"
"Bobby is so hot!"
"Bobby's totally gonna win."
"Bobby! Bobby!"
The name Natalie kept hearing was Bobby Owens. She turned to Rachel, "Who's Bobby?"
Rachel rolled her eyes, "Just some jerk. He won't win. First place is going to Robbie Ellis from NOZ."
Their chat caught the attention of the girls around them.
Some were cheering for Bobby.
Some were rooting for Robbie.
But it was clear most people were Team Bobby.
Rachel looked a bit bummed.
In the first few laps, Robbie was in the lead. But then, he got overtaken.
The crowd went nuts, chanting Bobby's name.
Natalie pulled out her phone and looked up Bobby.
He seemed pretty impressive, but Rachel clearly wasn't a fan.
With five laps left, Natalie asked, "This Bobby guy seems really good."
"Good at what? Robbie's gonna win!" Rachel said in indignation, clenching her fist.
Natalie got it—Rachel was a die-hard NOZ fan and had a thing for Robbie.
And Bobby? He was the star racer for Team THT.
The two teams were rivals, so no wonder Rachel didn't like Bobby.
The commentator's voice boomed, "Three laps to go! The top contenders are clear. Shout out the name of your champion!"
"Bobby!"
"Robbie!"
"Two laps left!" the commentator yelled, "The competition is fierce. Bobby's in the lead, but Robbie's trying to overtake. Bobby's defense is solid. You all know these names, right? One's from THT, the other's from NOZ. Who do you support? Shout out your team!"
"NOZ!"
"Bobby! Bobby! THT! Bobby!"
The commentator amped up the excitement, "Final lap!"
Rachel held her breath, eyes glued to the track.
Natalie watched nervously too.
On the big screen, the cars were neck and neck.
As they neared the finish line, the black car with the THT logo zoomed past like a black eagle.
Bobby won.
The car slowed down and stopped, and Bobby stepped out, taking off his helmet.
The crowd erupted in cheers.
