Jens raised an eyevisor at "Detlef's" treatment of the surprise female newcomer. Then again, he had long since figured that racers like him were usually that cocky when it came to their careers. As soon as the talking stopped he decided to introduce himself.
"My name is Jens Glimmer, and I'm currently on the off-season from my league." That league, of course, being the Deutsche Touringwagen Masters ((far as I know they don't call it the Meisterschaft anymore)) and Jens being the current reigning champion. He didn't want to say he'd be trying to "inspire" this crazy lot, that would be (excessive) arrogance.
Of course, it would certainly inspire arrogance in a few of the more elite makes and models to see the "Silber Zwei" racing against commoners like these...

Everybody was quiet and the CLK seemed to have got the full attention, Chakée thought that he finally could say something about himself now. "Oh, I..." but he was not able to say more. "I'm Annika Bauer and I think it is not hard to guess that I'm a rally racer but I also enjoy reaces on asphalt... oh and sorry for interrupting you again dude." She looks at Chakée, who seems to feel more and more annoyed. ... has everybody finished their show of intro now..? *blarg* "Okay, another try for me... My name is Chakée and I'm not some kind of "official" racer or so, I'm just a mere mortal who wants to have some fun and action, that's it."

Detlef paused for a while looking at the little group of cars in order, maybe Kai was right? Some ideas shouldn't be taken too serious. "Okay so I would say that's the right mixture.... and you..." he looks at Annika "... you like to invite yourself, don't you? So you can take part at the race if you have the right 'fee' amount to pay, but if you find yourself in the next crash barrier you can also pull yourself out there!"
He turns around, taking a quick glance at the traffic light in front of the driveway up to the southside Autobahn. "So this will be our start signal, it is up to you which way you take in the end, there is a similar crossroad with a traffic light on the other end of the Autobahn, this will be the goal, that one who passes the stop line in front of the traffic light there at first is the winner, I myself will throw a 600 Euros into the pot, so what are your bets... Ladies?"
Harhar, I guess now they are going to swallow up their oil, I am sure not all of them are willing to put some more money in the winner pot...

Jens' eyevisors twitched at being called a "lady," even if his form was quite shapely. Without batting a sweat, Glimmer added: "€1,000. I'm sure none of you can afford to call that," and he meant that in both senses of the word "afford."

*gulp* ... this will be an expensive trip. "Oh well, I add € 600..." said Chakée. Annika smirked "€ 1000 from me. Ladies! Because I have it..." ...let's see what you can do, boys...

The first sound of a 1000 € made him feel rather rapt inside, but than listening along with the other bets he needed to restrain himself from grinning, although it made him feel a bit "tiny" too being not that big with the bet, but who cares...
A 2600 € action... woops and the start fee of the last two rallyes is back in... I am sure the team is in need of that, I am in need of that!
He made another quick glance over the driveway up to the southside Autobahn, the rushour was going heavily, the roadside which leads out of the city was filled up with cars.
If my plan runs... it's going to be a easy win, and these guys didn't even ask for some rules... Harhar how easy...
"So the winner pot is filled, no need to wait, let's start!" Detlef drives onward and stops in front of the line at the traffic light waiting for the others and preparing for the race already...
((OOC: just as I told you suzee...))

(( I think I did not get it completely but okay... XD ))
... uh oh, let's hope that I'm not making something really really wrong here, I have a chance with my moves but I have no clue if some of the others here knows some nasty tricks... Chakée stopped next to Detlef at the line. Annika smiled and stopped also near the line. It would be really cool if I would beat these two show-off racing boys there, hehe...hmm I'm curious how that tuner got in touch with Detlef...

((Sorry for the wait, been keeping up with a LOT of RP recently. X.=.x))
Jens lined himself up with the line, next to Detlef AND on a coming lane. He revved his V-8 anxiously, believing the mere sound of his superior numbers of cylinders would at least hinder their psyche before they hit the road...

Oh my... what a show-off, I just hope that "Anyone" beats him... hmm lets see if your V8 can bring you through this crowded road, I rely more on my tyres, my suspension and my moves in this case... Chakée smirked unimpressed hearing the noise that comes from the Merc. Annika just kept her eyes onto the traffic light, it turned into red/yellow. Come on, come on... Chakée revved his engine now too. Annika's engine was also getting louder. The traffic lights turned into green. Annika shoot foreward as she used to do when she was at the start of a rally but this was asphalt and not dirt. Her tyres squeled and she was the first on the Autobahn feeder road, but for how long... Chakée did not press ahead as fast as Annika did.

Jens didn't peel out as the green light went off... he just launched smoothly forward and onto the autobahn's going lane. He found himself right behind the rally car and ready to move ahead.
Those cars are built for quick acceleration...but not very high top speed.
((Where's Lizkay? O:))

Oh Wow, better start than I guessed, time to turn the tables...
in front of him a row of red brake lights, just shortly before a complete traffic chaos, the Autobahn was filled up with cars, Detlef used the first row of cars to get on the service lane so that the others, outdistancing him, don't see him hiding behind that row of cars on the right lane.
After the last car of his little race group passed he turned around on his own axis and rushes away into the other direction, in front of him the driveway to the other side of the autobahn, covered with warning shields...
"Wrong direction... harhar what a fauxpas!" he shouts entering the driveway just besides the Autobahn lane into the 'right direction' just as he guessed, this lane which brings the cars into the city was almost empty, just one car here and there. He revs up and speeds along the right lane just watching the filled other lane, meanwhile he was outdistancing more and more cars.
Winning was never that easy... even the latest feeling of a thrill is gone.. though...
Suddenly he hears a quite familiar noise, the police, but not because of him, two policecars attending a wide load transport in front of him...
Wooohoo, did I just say the thrill is gone? Harhar..
(( OOC: sorry for being late, hope it is clear whats happening, if not, don't hesitate to poke me XD ))

Glimmer's smooth start had not only put him in a going lane, but his touring-car specifications allowed him to weave through the traffic on his lane. He was still frustrated though as he firmly believed that he was being left behind...
