After they have finally finished the race in Saudi Arabia, Nekomi is in the base cleaning his car. Then a 959 came into the base, a light flashed and it turned into the girl that he had just met, Alice.
“Hey, are you free right now?” Alice the 959 asks.
“Well yes after I finish cleaning this, I am almost finished, just wait for 5 minut-” Nekomi was then interrupted by Alice.
“No need to use your car.” She then claps her hand and a 959 appears next to her. “Just use mine, also you are the one taking the wheel.”
Nekomi was shocked after hearing this, he can’t believe he is going to try and drive a car that he thought that he could only dream of.
“Hey, stop daydreaming, do you wanna drive or not.” Nekomi finally snaps back into consciousness after being shocked by what she just said.
“Hurry up, we are on a date right now.” Alice continued.
“Wait, what did you just say?” Nekomi is not only shocked, he is also confused as to why she decided to take her out.
Nekomi finally enters the 959 with Alice in the passenger seat. He slowly starts the engine, the sound of the LeMans based flat-6 sends shivers down his spine. “I can’t believe I am actually driving this.” Nekomi thought.
“Well just do your thing.” Alice then said seeing Nekomi being unusually slow to start this car. He slowly drives the Porsche down the mountain road. When driving, he does feel something unique while driving as he usually does, it is a car that he can only see pictures of online and drive in video games, but now he finally drives it. It started as shock and astonishment, then slowly it turned into joy and happiness. It has the same feeling as driving for the first time, a thing that a person dreamt of doing is finally being done.

They slowly went down the mountain and found a grass field near a lake, where they were going to have a picnic.
“So what makes you want to go to the Dakar Rally in Saudi?” Nekomi asked
“Well you know, I used to win races back then. It's just that people do tend to forget about me.” Alice answered.
“Why so?”
“More newer cars have been made that just grab other attention, people always just think the 911 is a really fast German supercar, and with the Carrera GT and the 918 hybrid. Even though I was one of the first to push the boundaries of what was thought possible, my efforts were never acknowledged. I went to the Dakar Rally again just to prove myself of my worthiness. But you know, I have failed myself and been saved by you guys.”
Alice then added, “Nowadays, cars are just prettier than me and faster than ever on track. While I am just a nerdy girl who is just meant for the desert and dirt roads.”
Nekomi then laughed at her expression, “Silly you, you were never forgotten you dummy. Without you the 911s won’t be as advanced as today.”
“Huh?” Alice then slowly looked at Nekomi.
“You’re special, you know, only people who truly know cars will understand what you truly are. Don’t call yourself unpopular, call yourself exclusive. Try taking a modern 911 GT2RS into a dirt road, it just can’t do much, but when you are on a dirt road, you leave everyone in the dust.” Nekomi added. “Compared to other cars, you have done things that no one else can do. And if everyone forgets about you, I will still be here with you.”
Alice shed a tear and slowly pats Nekomi’s head, and gently whispers, “Thank you.”
