Chapter 20
Nick James maintained a moderate speed through the residential area to make his pursuers believe there was nothing sinister about his midnight drive. He turned west on 98th Ave and took the left exit that led to the Groat Road at the same leisurely place, He waited until he hit the winding curves through Groat Road that he unleashed his Porsche’s power, by suddenly downshifting and hitting the gas pedal.
The tires on the nimble sports car barely squealed as it took off like a rocket, clinging to the curves he took at eighty kilometres per hour. After he negotiated a curve Nick James looked into the rear-view mirror and smiled in triumph. There was only one police behind him and it couldn’t match his speed.
He glanced down at his speedometer, and saw he was now going one hundred kms an hour and his Porsche still held the road through the remaining curves like it was glued to it. He loved this car. It was exhilarating to be able to fly through these winding road like a jet airplane.
When Nick James came out of the curves and onto the straight stretch under the 107 Avenue overpass he thought he home free until he heard the police sirens. He glanced into his rear-view mirror and saw a police car coming up behind him fast with flashing lights and siren blaring. Two more police vehicles were on top the 107 Avenue overpass.
