Each passing second seemed to stretch into eternity, yet his demeanor remained resolute and focused. Amidst the cacophony of the race, his silent vigil conveyed a sense of determination that needed no words to be understood."Eight... nine... ten!"As the countdown reached its climax, Benjamin's moment of truth arrived.

He had cultivated a promising career as a racer, amassing several trophies in local competitions before ultimately relinquishing it to focus on his family's more lucrative business endeavors.With facts like that, it would be a shame if Adam lost to Benjamin, someone who had never even set foot in the stands. Moreover, the car used by Benjamin was an old car, in contrast to Adam's very modern and top-notch car."I don't want to lose here. Never!" Adam snapped on the radio.On the pit lan side, Paul bit his finger in horror as he stared at the monitor as Adam's car began to take a very narrow gap around the corner.Sure
