Alice went to the changing room where she changed her casual attire to her racing attire. After changing, Alice went to the break room to grab something, but then she saw Sugimoto lazing around on the sofa playing on his phone.
"Well, well, isn't it ironic that my GREAT Senpai is lazing on the couch and not getting ready for training?" She sarcastically said.
"Hmm? Yeah, I'll do that in an hour or so." He said casually.
Alice stared at him just laying on the sofa without a care. Sugimoto's laziness got on her nerves.
"Seems like somebody doesn't take his racing seriously, huh?" Alice told him.
Sugimoto ignores her and continues to scroll on his phone. Alice walked out slamming the door behind her. She proceeded to begin warming up before doing some exercises.
"That Senpai of mine surely is a lazypants, even though he is supposed to guide me. Tuff luck for him since I'm going to prove my worth here!" She mutters to herself.
As Alice was doing her warm-ups, the manager came to inspect the team and saw her outside the garage.
"You seem to be quite eager." The manager told Alice.
"Well, I have to stay fit right? Unlike my Senpai over there." She said while pointing at him sleeping on the break room's sofa.
"That's his way of preparing I guess. Just let him be for now." The manager sighed.
Alice looks frustrated by Sugimoto's way and the manager notices it. He decides to show her something instead.
"Hey, want to see what you will be driving?" The manager asked her.
"Sure, I was curious about what I will drive for the team." She replied curiously.
"Alright then, follow me." The manager leads the way.
Alice followed him and he brought her to the front of the pit lane, and her eyes widened as she saw the car parked in front of the pit lane garage. It was a clean blue BMW M6 GT3 with no sponsors or stickers. She began inspecting the car's exterior and interior.
"A BMW M6? It's the GT3 version as well. Where did you buy this manager?" She asked in a curious tone.
"An old friend of mine wanted to sell this car that was in midst condition, he barely used it since he bought another car and used that more often." He replied proudly after getting a good deal.
"Damn manager, that's a good find." She said.
"Catch!" The manager shouted.
The manager threw the keys towards her and Alice managed to catch it. She looked at the keys and saw the BMW logo on the key shine from the sunlight.
"R-really? You're letting me drive this car?" She was surprised by his sudden gesture.
The manager nodded and Alice smiled widely. She climbed into the seat and turned on the ignition. The car's dashboard lights up and the engine starts, she gives it a few small revs, and the engine roars loudly.
"Woah, the engine sounds nice." She muttered to herself as she admired the car.
After holding the car's wheel for a bit, she suddenly began massively adjusting the seat and the steering wheel height to her preference. Alice is a bit shorter than her peers in high school. The manager noticed her adjusting things in the driver's seat and decided to check in on her.
"Doing alright in there?" The manager asked her looking a bit nervous by all the commotion in the car.
"Y-yeah, just adjusting a bit." She told the manager while adjusting everything.
