A Conspiracy Toss

Yesterday, I sneaked off to G4 go get a few rounds in and beat God Foot and Keisuke. Hoshino was easy, easy as ever anyway, but Keisuke was a bit of a challenge at level 3. So far, I've got a number 3 on my card. Keisuke keeps pushing me away from my line so I have a hard time accelerating properly when bam he hits me and I hit a wall, and have to PC just to get my speed up to level again.

Either way, I beat him. I figure, you have to block him until those long straights end, and you're home free.

Anyway, where's the real-life God Foot, as my title suggests? Well... There's this guy, and his son (whom he calls Michael, or however you spell his name), who visits G4 with obscene amounts on their card. Usually, whenever I check their load it's always at the P500 level, at it wasn't their first play either.

I saw the pair again yesterday, playing on the machines. (I think they started AS4 the last time I played, actually.) They were racing on Myogi, and the kid kept downshifting to 2 or 3 at corners, making his speed drop. I wanted to correct him, but kept my mouth shut. When it became apparent that they weren't going to leave any time soon, I asked the dad to go next. He said sure, and whatever. Overall, he's a nice (old) guy. When I sat down and got to racing God Foot, I was staring at Hoshino's avatar, when it struck me. They looked alike. Damn. *glance* Yeah, they sure do. Even down to the flabs.

Anyway, they transfered to the v3 machine and some guy went over and raced (or at least tried to) Takumi on Akina. I glanced at his time, '25 was his best, and had to keep to myself again.

Keisuke took a bit of practice to beat, but I got him in, say, 4 rounds. After that, I had to leave, so hurried away, but I was as I always am. I keep my ears open to whatever I can hear, so I have the tendency to, well, hear stuff.

Yesterday, I heard what I thought I'd never hear. There were, like, three guys standing behind the cab I was occupying, and apparently they were watching me. One of them said something like, "Galing niya, ah."

O.o

Rofl. Thanks, dude, whoever you are.

That reminds me of those Chinese guys. When I was racing Takumi on Tsukuba once, probably the previous time I raced him, they were commenting on my race. Lol. I'd say they were comparable to tho Nakazato and Shingo during the Takumi vs. Ryousuke race on Akina.
