31. What's going on? I'm so tense I could die.Copy !req
32. I wanna go to Mt. Akina so bad.Copy !req
33. I'm not really sure if I love
driving that much, but...Copy !req
34. For the past five years, come rain or snow,Copy !req
35. I've driven Mt. Akina more often than anyone.Copy !req
36. Anyway, that's the story.
So I'm taking the car, Dad!Copy !req
37. You'd better hurry, Takumi! It's almost time.Copy !req
38. —It's him!
—He's here!Copy !req
39. Oh, no! They found me!Copy !req
40. It's too late to run.Copy !req
41. I'm dead!Copy !req
42. What the hell are you doingCopy !req
43. sitting in the middle of the road, Itsuki?Copy !req
44. Ta... Ta... Ta...Copy !req
45. Get out of my way! I'm gonna run you over.Copy !req
46. Takumi! You came!Copy !req
47. Yeah.Copy !req
48. Sorry, Itsuki... for being late.Copy !req
49. Takumi...!Copy !req
50. A street racer should race
if he's challenged, right?Copy !req
51. Takumi...!Copy !req
52. Wait... don't...Copy !req
53. "Act 9: Battle to the Limit!"Copy !req
54. Jeez, he's young!Copy !req
55. Bet he hasn't even had his
license for more than a year!Copy !req
56. Where'd a kid like this learn his technique?Copy !req
57. I thought for sure I'd be
facing a guy older than me!Copy !req
58. So that's a GT-R...Copy !req
59. It's beyond amazing.
That car's in a class by itself.Copy !req
60. Its driving system combines everything
good about FR and four-wheel drive.Copy !req
61. I'm Nakazato... one of the Night Kids.Copy !req
62. What's your name?Copy !req
63. Takumi Fujiwara.Copy !req
64. I'll remember that.Copy !req
65. What do you say we get started?Copy !req
66. —Who do you think's gonna win?
—Nakazato, of course!
—R32!Copy !req
67. Now you tell meCopy !req
68. that heavy understeer during full throttle
is the better setting if you have skills,Copy !req
69. but if maneuverability is suddenly different,Copy !req
70. don't you think Takumi's going to
panic when he charges into corners?Copy !req
71. Maybe you should've warned him...Copy !req
72. It wouldn't have done any good.Copy !req
73. He's not exactly a driver
who drives with his head.Copy !req
74. What? Then all the more reason to tell him!Copy !req
75. It's all right.Copy !req
76. You don't have to worry.Copy !req
77. See, he might not be too sharp upstairs...Copy !req
78. .. but his body and his senses are finely tuned.Copy !req
79. It's too late to think first and reactCopy !req
80. to the information you feel
on your back through the seat.Copy !req
81. Your arms and legs have to move
unconsciously to control drifting.Copy !req
82. That's why you don't need to worry!Copy !req
83. He has this great sense of knowing
when and how to accelerateCopy !req
84. while the car is drifting.Copy !req
85. So even if the suspension
setting is a little different,Copy !req
86. it won't matter to him in the least.Copy !req
87. He'll make minor adjustmentsCopy !req
88. and just ride it out.Copy !req
89. See, the Eight-Six is a car that trains its driver.Copy !req
90. Here's the goal.Copy !req
91. The road's clear of regular traffic,
so anytime you're ready...Copy !req
92. Iketani! We can go anytime!Copy !req
93. All right!Copy !req
94. I'm gonna start the countdown!Copy !req
95. Start in ten seconds.Copy !req
96. Takumi! I'm counting on you!Copy !req
97. Keisuke...Copy !req
98. We're gonna have the best seats
in the house for tonight's battle!Copy !req
99. Now hop in! They're about to start!Copy !req
100. 5...Copy !req
101. 4... 3...Copy !req
102. 2... 1...Copy !req
103. Go!Copy !req
104. The R32 is ahead!Copy !req
105. Yeah, but Takumi's not too far behind!Copy !req
106. Here they come!Copy !req
107. Get your seat belt on!Copy !req
108. Hey! That's the FC.
Ryosuke Takahashi just dashed out!Copy !req
109. Is he trying to horn in on the race?Copy !req
110. What the hell...? Is it going
to be a three-way super battle?Copy !req
111. Suddenly, it's turned into a
race for the fastest in Gunma!Copy !req
112. The GT-R driver... He's slowing down...Copy !req
113. Is he waiting for me?Copy !req
114. It'd be a waste to lose
him on the straightaway.Copy !req
115. I wanna have a battle here!Copy !req
116. The real starting line comes
as soon as we hit the first corner!Copy !req
117. Hey, look at that!Copy !req
118. Nakazato's easing up on the gas
and waiting for the Eight-Six!Copy !req
119. Hope his overconfidenceCopy !req
120. doesn't end up costing him
in the last half of the race!Copy !req
121. Here they come!Copy !req
122. The first corner... and all
three cars, taking it in a row!Copy !req
123. Wow! Just like Bunta said!Copy !req
124. What the hell...?Copy !req
125. No way, mister!Copy !req
126. Pulling stunts like thatCopy !req
127. ain't gonna get you caught up to me!Copy !req
128. Getting to eyeball it from this close up...Copy !req
129. That drift looks just like a work of art!Copy !req
130. A four-wheel drift in full throttle, and
he's barely applying the countersteer!Copy !req
131. Do you realize how incredible that is?Copy !req
132. He's pushing that Eight-Six to its outer limitsCopy !req
133. and controlling it like it was
his own hands and feet!Copy !req
134. Even I can't control the FC like that!Copy !req
135. It's exciting!Copy !req
136. Yeah, maybe, but little by little,
Nakazato is gaining ground!Copy !req
137. Can the Eight-Six win this one?Copy !req
138. Yes! This is it!Copy !req
139. It's like I can feel the blood
rushing through my veins!Copy !req
140. This is the battle I've been waiting for!Copy !req
141. Ready, boy? I'm really gonna cut loose now!Copy !req
142. Let's see how far you can keep up!Copy !req
143. Hey...Copy !req
144. Something's different...
Something's different with the car!Copy !req
145. Even if I floor the gas,
the car doesn't lose control.Copy !req
146. Does this mean I can step on
the gas sooner than before?Copy !req
147. When I was at work today,
did Dad fiddle with it?Copy !req
148. 'Cause it sure wasn't like thisCopy !req
149. when I made the deliveries this morning!Copy !req
150. Now I get it!Copy !req
151. That's why he was out before!
He was working on this!Copy !req
152. Don't know why...Copy !req
153. But anyway, it does feel
a whole lot better this way!Copy !req
154. Because it doesn't slide too much...
I can push it all the way!Copy !req
155. —Yow!
—Amazing!Copy !req
156. That's some un-freakin'-believable drifting!Copy !req
157. That's the first time I've seen a guy
drift all the way through that corner!Copy !req
158. Yeah, he's nuts!Copy !req
159. He'd never be able to do it if he didn't
have total mastery over his speed!Copy !req
160. What the heck was that?Copy !req
161. That's no kind of drift I've ever seen before!Copy !req
162. Incredible! That's drifting I'll never forget!Copy !req
163. Man, oh, man!Copy !req
164. The Eight-Six is still on the R32's tail!Copy !req
165. He's doing it!Copy !req
166. Looks like Takumi's sticking
right behind the R32!Copy !req
167. Mind-blowing!Copy !req
168. I mean, Nakazato's an ace...Copy !req
169. Line him up with Ryosuke
Takahashi, another superstar,Copy !req
170. and you got a battle royal brewing already!Copy !req
171. And my best friend's racing against
both of 'em? Unbelievable!Copy !req
172. I mean, that is too cool!Copy !req
173. Well, yeah, but...Copy !req
174. Ryosuke Takahashi and his
FC aren't even in the race.Copy !req
175. He's acting more like a third-person witness.Copy !req
176. Right. Takumi's up against Nakazato here.Copy !req
177. His R32 has the Eight-Six at a disadvantage...Copy !req
178. But with Takumi at the wheel,
the Eight Six'll pull through in the end!Copy !req
179. Oh, yeah. Takumi will take it, for sure!Copy !req
180. Right, guys!Copy !req
181. He's creeping further and further away!Copy !req
182. Nakazato's got a big mouth,Copy !req
183. but it looks like he's got
the skill to back it up!Copy !req
184. Look at how he distributes the load,Copy !req
185. subduing the understeer while driving!Copy !req
186. He really knows how to
draw out the GT-R's power.Copy !req
187. Not pretty to look at...Copy !req
188. This is not the time to take it easy.Copy !req
189. Hey, bro...Copy !req
190. Whose side are you on, anyway?Copy !req
191. If the kid loses this one, it's all over!Copy !req
192. The real contest is only about to begin.Copy !req
193. The first half has comparatively
more long straightaways...Copy !req
194. Lots of gentle slopes, too.Copy !req
195. There are lots of
disadvantages for the Eight-Six.Copy !req
196. But the inclines are gonna start
getting rougher right around here.Copy !req
197. Perfect for a downhill
specialist to strut his stuff!Copy !req
198. All right! This kind of low-gear hairpin curveCopy !req
199. is right up the R32's alley!Copy !req
200. All I gotta do is cut my speed
by slamming on the brakes...Copy !req
201. Going downhill, like it or not, the front
wheels still have to bear the load,Copy !req
202. so its weakest point, the pushing
understeer, hardly occurs.Copy !req
203. Furthermore, accelerating from a low gearCopy !req
204. is what this car does better than any other!Copy !req
205. The fastest machine on the racing circuit...Copy !req
206. is the toughest machine even on open roads!Copy !req
207. The R emblem on the rearCopy !req
208. is the legendary symbol for invincibility!Copy !req
209. Can you get close enough to read it?Copy !req
210. Hey, Iketani...Copy !req
211. What?Copy !req
212. I've been thinking.Copy !req
213. 'Till now, I thought TakumiCopy !req
214. was just a unique racerCopy !req
215. who's fast only when he's racing on Akina.Copy !req
216. But if he raced on a different mountain pass,Copy !req
217. how well would he drive?Copy !req
218. Don't you wonder about that?Copy !req
219. Well, sure, I've mulled it over...Copy !req
220. But right now, all I'm thinking
about is the battle at hand!Copy !req
221. Win, Takumi!Copy !req
222. Takumi!Copy !req
223. Oh, man!Copy !req
224. My eyes can't keep up with him!Copy !req
225. Looks like he's finally kicking out the jams!Copy !req
226. His inside tires are gripping the rim of the road!Copy !req
227. This is the one! The trick that I lost to!Copy !req
228. Didn't think I'd ever get
the chance to see it again!Copy !req
229. Ryosuke's stopped with the chatter.Copy !req
230. Meaning there's no time for that now?Copy !req
231. I've ridden shotgun with him tons of times...Copy !req
232. But this is the first time I've
seen him driving like this!Copy !req
233. I've never seen him so serious!Copy !req
234. "Akina Skate Center"Copy !req
235. Getting closer...?Copy !req
236. The Eight-Six is catching up to me?Copy !req
237. Impossible!Copy !req
238. Brilliant! Catching up to me after all that...Copy !req
239. All my prejudices about the
Eight-Six being a 10-year-old carCopy !req
240. have just been blown away!Copy !req
241. It's a first-rate fighting machine!Copy !req
242. Okay, the kid gloves are off!Copy !req
243. Man, this is the best rush I've had in ages!Copy !req
244. In fact, this has gotta be the
hottest road race I've been inCopy !req
245. since getting this car!Copy !req
246. When it comes to hairpin turns,Copy !req
247. he can't match the R32!Copy !req
248. No matter how close the
Eight-Six sticks to the R32,Copy !req
249. the distance between them
always widens after a hairpin!Copy !req
250. Man, that Nakazato's got guts, too...Copy !req
251. Attacking the road like that,
downhill in a heavy-ass R32!Copy !req
252. Wha-What the...?Copy !req
253. The Eight-Six closed the gap
at the high-speed corner?Copy !req
254. Going over 100 kilometers an hour
while doing a four-wheel driftCopy !req
255. close enough to graze the guardrail?Copy !req
256. I don't think any of it has to do
with the car's capabilities!Copy !req
257. That guy... has got a screw loose!Copy !req
258. If he makes one slip-up, he's roadkill for sure!Copy !req
259. But now I understand his secret!Copy !req
260. With a lightweight like the
Eight-Six, if he loses speed once,Copy !req
261. it takes like forever to get it back up again.Copy !req
262. He never lets himself lose a fraction
of speed more than he has to!Copy !req
263. Now I finally get why,Copy !req
264. when I raced against him,Copy !req
265. he could always catch up to me,
no matter how many times I lost him!Copy !req
266. Crap!Copy !req
267. I can't shake him!Copy !req
268. Just the opposite!Copy !req
269. He's hanging on to me for
longer and longer periods!Copy !req
270. The bastard... is tough!Copy !req
271. Nakazato's clearing the guardrail
by a good 20-30 centimeters.Copy !req
272. No matter how fast you are,Copy !req
273. that's about right.Copy !req
274. Yet the Eight-Six's bumperCopy !req
275. is almost close enough
to the rail to make sparks!Copy !req
276. That guy's in a league of his own!Copy !req
277. How? How can he control a drift
with that kind of precision?Copy !req
278. Since I've been steering
hard and using the ABS,Copy !req
279. the load on the front tires has
been a lot heavier than I thought!Copy !req
280. This race is suddenly getting
much more challenging!Copy !req
281. The five hairpins are coming up...Copy !req
282. That's where he left you in the dust.Copy !req
283. And I bet that's gonna be
a key point this time, too.Copy !req
284. An R32 versus an Eight-Six...Copy !req
285. Who would've thought the
battle would be this fierce?Copy !req
286. Both of those cars are
being taken to their limits.Copy !req
287. But which one of them
is gonna take the prize?Copy !req
288. I'm at the hairpins! And I can hear 'em coming!Copy !req
289. My pride says you gotta be wild and toughCopy !req
290. So no one intervenesCopy !req
291. Never stop, I don't want to stopCopy !req
292. Even if you cry because of a sacrificed loveCopy !req
293. Aim for the peak, sweep the winding streetCopy !req
294. Beep beep! The warning chime is so cheap!Copy !req
295. The sheep should clear the roadCopy !req
296. 'Cuz I'm never gonna stop, streak my dreamCopy !req
297. Easy motivation is total stimulationCopy !req
298. You tried to escape,
but anywhere is a safety zoneCopy !req
299. Something is within your grasp
and something is forgottenCopy !req
300. Even if the world ends it will never changeCopy !req
301. Beasty shout, no one can touch youCopy !req
302. Cross over now to the time of an intense dreamCopy !req
303. Rage your dream, split the darknessCopy !req
304. Like a streak to the peakCopy !req
305. Erase the freezing darkness worldwideCopy !req
306. Rage your dream, and open the roadCopy !req
307. Di-ding down, another round never slow downCopy !req
308. A point 01 second knockdownCopy !req
309. Reverberations left behind,
disappear to the next townCopy !req
310. The losers are left in the dustCopy !req
311. Let's ignore the constraints of logicCopy !req
312. 'Cause they're a painCopy !req
313. A streaker runs naked across the streetCopy !req
314. Something they would knowCopy !req
315. Rage your dream,
continue on the unending roadCopy !req
316. Don't look back on your love or your pastCopy !req
317. Go forward and you'll shine brightlyCopy !req
318. Rage your dream, you're living in the nowCopy !req
319. Ryosuke, most expected the R32
to have a great advantage.Copy !req
320. The R32 is 4,640 mm long and 1,720 mm
wide, and weighs a thousand...Copy !req
321. In other words...Copy !req
322. In other words, the R32 is 4,640 mm
long and 1,720 mm wide...Copy !req
323. In other words, traveling
downhill, Takumi might...Copy !req
324. In other words, the R32 is 4,640 mm long and...Copy !req
325. All right already! Next time on Initial D,
"The 5 Consecutive Hairpins"!Copy !req
326. Don't miss it!Copy !req
