After Pierce finished speaking, everyone smiled knowingly.
The people present were all driving experts, so this kind of competition was, of course, necessary.
Firstly, it was to test the vehicles' performance so that everyone would have an idea of what they were capable of. Since they were about to take action, there was no time for them to adapt, so it was natural to get familiar with them as quickly as possible.
Secondly, it was, of course, for that damned male competitive spirit, especially when Pierce threw out the stakes. At this point, no one could admit defeat.
However, Brian still intended to deflate Pierce a bit, "Come on? You can't even come up with 100,000 now, what are you going to bet with?"
Facing Brian's merciless mockery, Pierce picked up the mic in his hand and said loudly, "Don't be like that, 100,000 will be here very soon, and we'll have over 10 million. A mere 100,000, no need to worry."
Listening to Pierce's words, everyone laughed. At this moment, Han added, "Since we'll have 10 million soon, why not make the stakes a bit bigger? How about 1 million?"
For Han, money was an external thing that would always come, so a small gamble was just for fun.
Dominic glanced at Brian, then smiled and said, "Then it's 1 million for one round."
Brian smiled and said, "Then I'll bet 1 million too."
At this point, the four looked in Johnny's direction. Johnny glanced at Brian, then at Dominic, and grinned, "Then I'll bet 1 million too."
Johnny also rarely acted so rich and powerful. After all, he currently had over 7 million, and after the mission was completed, he would have another 10 million. Putting up 1 million as a bet was easy. Moreover, he had also guessed Dominic's intention.
Soon, the engines of the five cars began to roar, one after another, shaking the windows by the roadside.
One could imagine how loud the engine sounds of these five cars were.
The red light flashed once.
Everyone's expressions became focused, even the most humorous and heartless Pierce.
Soon, the red light flashed a second time. Their hands gripped the steering wheel, of course, one hand on the steering wheel and one hand on the gear stick.
All the cars began to tremble slightly because their clutches were already halfway engaged, and the engine sounds became slightly deeper.
When the red light flashed for the third time, it immediately turned green. At that instant, Pierce had already lifted the clutch early, and his right foot stomped down, giving it gas.
He had already shot out an instant before the green light came on, and then the green light illuminated. At this moment, the other four cars also suddenly shot out.
The five cars were identical, and their performance was the same, so now it was a test of skill and mindset.
After Johnny lifted the clutch, he quickly pressed it down again. At this moment, his right hand had already shifted the gear to second, and at the same time, the clutch was released abruptly, and his right foot pressed down on the accelerator.
The speed quickly increased from 20 miles to 60 miles. Johnny was very daring, and with his Lv3 driving skills, he quickly overtook Pierce.
This angered Pierce, who slammed the control panel, causing the siren to light up. He still couldn't understand how, given the same performance, the other person had overtaken him.
Brian and Dominic were already competing fiercely, as Brian had lost to Dominic's dirty trick in the previous race.
And this time, Dominic promised not to play dirty like last time.
So Brian was exceptionally focused, constantly observing the road conditions. One had to know that there were still cars on the road at that hour, so the group was constantly overtaking, overtaking, and continuing to overtake.
After overtaking Pierce, Johnny and Han began to compete, their skills evenly matched.
Han was also a bit surprised; Johnny's progress was simply incredible. One had to know that in Tokyo, his driving skills weren't that impressive.
Or rather, in Han's opinion, his skills still needed improvement, but now he could actually keep pace with him.
"Damn it, is this what you mean by 'just a little bit'?" Han had a ghost-seeing expression, but his eyes became even more focused.
Pierce, in the back, couldn't keep up with the four cars in front no matter what. He could only keep watching their taillights from behind.
Even though his bet with them was only 100,000, the feeling of losing was not good. His competitive spirit was ignited, and he stomped hard on the accelerator.
Speaking of which, Pierce's driving skills were also very good; he just happened to run into four monsters. Whether it was Dominic or Brian, both of them were experienced drivers.
And Han, needless to say, was the uncrowned king of underground drifting in Tokyo.
As for Johnny, he was a show-off. He clearly said he was a killer and only knew 'a little bit' about racing.
Is this what he called 'a little bit'?
As they approached the finish line, the four cars were already neck and neck, maintaining the same speed.
Pierce also chased hard, barely half a car length behind.
But just as they were about to cross the finish line, Dominic let off the accelerator, and Han and Johnny, with a tacit understanding, did the same, allowing Brian to cross the line first.
Whoosh!
The five cars flashed past the finish line instantly.
Back at the warehouse, the five cars were parked neatly.
The first thing Brian did after getting out of the car was to say to Dominic, "I won tonight."
Dominic smiled and said, "Yes, you won tonight."
As he spoke, he lightly punched Brian's chest with his right hand. Han, unable to keep his thoughts to himself, simply patted Brian's shoulder and said with a smile, "That was Dominic letting you win; he let off the gas at the very end."
Everyone was well aware of Dominic's driving skills; how could he easily lose to Brian?
Johnny also put his arm around Brian's neck and laughed heartily, "We all let off the gas, don't think your win was so easy."
At this, Brian's face instantly fell. What the hell?
After all that, it turns out I was the clown, wasn't I?
Dominic, however, put his hand on Brian's shoulder and said seriously, "Lose to you? You wish. I lost to my future nephew."
After learning that his sister Mia was pregnant, Dominic responded in this way. 1 million wasn't a lot, but it was enough to give his nephew or niece a good childhood.
As for Johnny and Han, it didn't matter even more.
The more than 10 million was essentially free money, so giving some away was no harm; it was just a favor.
Looking at everyone's expressions, Brian was a little moved. He didn't say anything, but he silently kept this gratitude in his heart.
Dominic patted Johnny's shoulder. He knew Johnny didn't have to do this, but he did, so some things were best kept in mind.
Han somehow pulled out another bag of snacks, tore open the package, and leaned against the car to eat.
Dominic then turned his gaze to Tej, whom they had found in the warehouse, "Modify two of these cars, at least paint them black, so it's easier for the subsequent operation."
Tej nodded and went to work with the Haier Brothers. The other three police cars were for confusing the public.
