HOW KATE UPTON SAVED JUSTIN VERLANDER'S CAREER
Kate Upton如何拯救Verlander的事业(上)
He arrives at the ballpark driving a gray muscle car. A replica, modeled after
a famous car from a movie. There’s some 700 horsepower under the hood, and
it is one fun, badass ride. Her name is Eleanor. He just got her this past
spring. One more for the collection. He’s up to about a dozen, including
five Ferraris—two of which are fully customized, he says. He hand-selected
every part of the cars from the inside out.
他开着一台灰色肌肉车到达球场，这是一台复制品，跟一部有名电影里的车子一样，有着
700匹马力，一台充满乐趣也是有点坏坏的车子。这车有个名字，叫Eleanor，他这个春天
才入手这台，在他已经众多的收集中再加上这一台。他已经有十几台车，他有五台法拉
利，根据他的说法，有两台还是客制车，由里到外，他亲手挑选每个零件。
He loves cars because his father loved cars. Growing up in Goochland County,
Virginia, he saw his father bring one old sports car after another through
the family garage and fix them up, have some fun with them, then sell them to
make extra money. As the boy grew up, his love grew with him. He became
obsessed with racing video games like Gran Turismo, playing for hours at a
time. He dreamed of one day building a collection of his own. It would
feature the coolest, fastest cars the world had to offer—some of them
modified to his specifications.
他喜欢车子的原因是因为他爸。在Virginia的Goochland郡长大，他看着他爸爸拿着一些旧
的跑车零件在车库里修理，修好后享受了一阵子，就把车子卖掉赚些外快。而当这个小男
孩长大了，这样的喜爱也跟随着他。他对赛车电玩，像是Gran Turismo，非常的沉迷，一
次可以玩好几个小时。他梦想着有一天可以完成他自己的收集，里面会有这世上最酷最快
的车子
