You have to wonder why a billionaire who owns a suit that can fly faster than a fighter jet chooses to refer to anywhere, but Tony Stark told anyone who would lend an ear to that he felt more at one with his cars than he ever did with the suit. He'd built most of the cars from gouge out; the remainder had been modified to optimise exhibition. They were the children he would likely never have.
“I want to go on box,” he announced to Pepper one night-time, while she was working and he was milling around trying to find some way of amusing himself. It commonly ended up with him bothering her until she found a distraction for him.
“Again?” she asked, not looking up from her laptop. “Don’t you fantasize announcing to the world that you’re 'Iron Man' got you into enough difficulty?”
“This is different. This isn’t a superhero thing.”
He picked up the God-forsaken and switched the channel to BBC America.
“As far as I’m interested,” a British presenter announced dryly, “this car is almost without answerability.”
Tony pointed at the screen. “I requirement to appear on this show.”
Pepper glanced up from the laptop for a faulty and surveyed him with weary eyes. “Why?”
“Because I cognizant of that if I'd been in my Audi racing against the Porsche I would have won.”
She sighed. “Tony, you’ve made so many modifications to that car you can only just call it an Audi anymore.”
“If I was in that Audi I’d still have won,” Tony replied with a shrug. “Even-handed get me on that show, Pepper. Please?”
She hated when he pled for something, sounding like a kid who's virtuous seen a shiny new toy in a store window that he couldn't energetic without. He was quite aware how she felt about it, but he also knew she couldn’t say no.
“I’ll go the call,” she finally sighed in miscarriage.
“Great.” Tony beamed and settled down to on the qui vive for the rest of the show.
Five minutes later he was on his feet again. “Upon off making that call, Pepper. I’ve just consideration of something.”
He pulled his cell phone out of his thieve and hit one of his speed dials. “Lex? It’s Tony. Bear in mind a couple of months ago, at the auto show in Detroit when we made a little bet?”
He grimaced. “Hey, you were as wasted as I was after you insisted on sampling every sauce a contain of our collective scotch collection. You kept business me Clark before you threw up and then passed out on my tete-. Anyway, how would you like to settle that little bet? Or are you apologetic of losing?”
He held the phone away from his ear at the retort, and even Pepper could hear Lex yelling from the other side of the area. Tony sure knew how to get on people’s honourable sides.
Tony grinned. “I’ll plan it and Pepper will be in touch with the details. See you on the run to earth.”
He hung up and sat back down next to Pepper. “Sometimes, my own wit amazes me.”
Pepper raised an eyebrow. “Sometimes, the dimensions of your ego amazes me.”
“No, it doesn’t.”
He was right, of procedure. It really didn’t.
“I’ll make the call.”

“Here on Top Cog,” Jeremy announced to an audience that was in effect buzzing with anticipation, “we have had some euphonious impressive celebrities over the years. And James Straight. But tonight, we have a lineup that has never been seen before. One of our guests, I assume it’s safe to say, is the envy of every man on the planet. He’s strong, handsome, has slept with more beautiful women than I’ve had hot dinners and, when he’s not driving one of his spectacular business cars, he’s flying around faster than the rush of sound.
Our second guest is no less singular. He survived a meteor shower when he was solely nine years old, and is now just about the richest man in the humankind. Ladies and Gentlemen...Tony Advantage and Lex Luthor!”
The crowd erupted with acclaim and, even behind the bright studio lights, Lex could see people craning their necks to get a safer view. He was used to people staring and he smiled indulgently. Tony, on his part, was loving the regard.
“So, Mr. Stark,” Jeremy began, turning his prominence to Tony first. “Hammond and May had to be physically restrained in the back stay to stop them from sitting in on this interview. I have to recognition you for flying over and doing this.”
“Well, it’s an awesome show,” Tony replied with a grin. “I effective we have similar stuff in America, but nothing like this. You guys toss.”
“A lesser man would be blushing right now,” Jeremy smiled, “but I’ll move on. My effulgence aside, I understand you’re here because of a bet. Is that true?”
“Only in the perceive that I needed an excuse to get on the show,” Tony replied.
“Exculpate?” Jeremy retorted with flout indignation. “You could buy the BBC if you wanted. You don’t distress an excuse to come here.”
“Come on,” Lex said with a wry beam. “You know how Tony is. Everything has to be a favourably public display. There’d be no fun in settling our Lilliputian…disagreement by ourselves.”
“And this disagreement was about cars, I take it?” Jeremy prompted.
“Above-board,” Tony replied, attractive control of the conversation again. “Lex was frustrating to convince me to buy a Porsche, and I said my Audi could take his pathetic Porsche any day of the week.”
Jeremy nodded. “Of circuit, we actually did a comparison of the Porsche and the Audi about a year ago.”
“Yeah, I saw that!” Tony replied excitedly. “You loved that Audi.”
Jeremy laughed as Tony gave him a excessive-five.
“It didn’t win, though,” Lex calmly penetrating out.
“Only because I wasn’t driving.”
“Well, I have to say I’d be offended if it was anyone else talking,” Jeremy laughed, “but the the score is, if there is anyone capable of getting more speed out of the Audi, it’s Tony Unmitigated. Let’s take a look at the race.”
The audience cheered.
“I mull over I can safely say that nothing like this has ever been seen on Top Panoply before. Two of the most powerful men in the world racing around our pursue.”
The screen cut to the track. Tony in his Audi and Lex in his Porsche. The engines roared as they readied themselves for the signal, and then they were off. It was hopeless to tell who was in the lead as the cars tore around the first corner. The cameras cut to inside the cars. Lex’s look was set in grim determination, while Tony had a big grin plastered across his dial.
A smile curled Lex’s lips as he edged out in front, but it quick faded as Tony stole the result in. They were halfway around the track now, and there was still no obvious number one. Whenever one of them took the lead, the other soon grabbed it back. The cameras cut back to the cars, and Tony was no longer smiling. His representation now matched the determination of Lex’s.
Gambon Corner was in imaginative now. Tony was fractionally ahead but Lex had the secret line. He forced Tony to run considerable and Lex made up ground. The cars were neck and neck as they hurtled across the finishing limit.
The camera cut back to the studio.
“I have to tell you that the racetrack was so close that we had to look at the photograph to see who had crossed the virgule first. Do either of you have any idea who won? Any gut feelings?”
“I guess all we can say is that the best clothes driver and the best car won,” Tony said, sitting support in his seat expectantly.
“I honestly have no estimate,” Lex added.
“Well, I can tell you that the champ, by the tightest of margins, just .02 of a alternative, is… Lex!”
Tony laughed and congratulated Lex before burying his mug in his hands. “Aw, man, I’m never going to remain this down.”
Lex smirked and gave Tony a pally pat on the back. “Hey, you said it yourself, the best car and driver won.”
“So,” Jeremy said with a suspiration, “the Porsche 911 is still the reigning winner. I’m sure Hammond can’t wait to approach out here and gloat but, for now, it’s down to me to say thank you to our two incredible guests and we’ll be back again next week. Unless you’re watching this on ‘Dave’ in which example in any event we’ll be back in about five minutes.”

“Do you prefer to have me to drive us back to the B & B?” Lex asked,...
