I run a tofu shop, and you want me to go to Akina Mountain?

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

At the tense moment of the countdown, Fujiwara Takumi listened attentively to the roar of the FC engine, his brows slightly twisted. This power was definitely not the sound that 350 horsepower should make, but more like it was adjusted to a level of about 260 horsepower.

Ryosuke Takahashi put a lot of thought into this competition and made a big modification to the vehicle. Although reducing the power from 350 horsepower to 260 horsepower seems to be a weakening, it makes the car more stable when turning, especially on the Akina Mountain track with many continuous sharp turns. 260 horsepower is the ideal configuration for conquering Akina Mountain.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The roars of 86 and FC came one after another.

At this moment, the FC's tachometer is approaching 5000 rpm!

"Nine thousand revolutions!"

Keisuke Takahashi shouted loudly!

"call out!"

Like an arrow shot from a bow, 86 and FC suddenly rushed out of the starting point.

Ejection starts!

The wind whistled past, and Takahashi Keisuke's hair was blown all over the place.

"Wow!"

The audience around witnessed this scene and were all amazed!

The startup speed is too fast!

There are only a few people who can make such extreme acceleration in an instant according to the countdown rhythm.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Fujiwara Takumi quickly changed gears and stepped on the accelerator.

FC followed closely and completed the gear shift.

At the start, 86 and FC were running side by side.

It's interesting that it only has 150 horsepower, but it can start at the same speed as my 260 horsepower FC." Takahashi Ryosuke was sitting in the FC and was a little surprised by Fujiwara Takumi's amazing starting speed. This was faster than the speed he saw when he watched Fujiwara Takumi racing in the video, which showed that Fujiwara Takumi still had some power left when he was racing.

"It's great, great!"

At the beginning, both sides were evenly matched! "

Koichiro Iketani watched the start and shouted excitedly.

"boom!"

In the short straight sprint, the 86 quickly surpassed the FC.

"Over it! Over-over it!"

Takumi... Takumi actually surpassed Takahashi Ryosuke!

Kenji screamed in disbelief.

"Yeah yeah yeah~"

Takeuchi Itsuki danced with joy.

"Ahhhh!"

"come on!"

"Come on!" The audience around kept shouting and cheering.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

As they passed a bend, the 86 and FC disappeared from the starting point's view.

But this does not affect the viewing of the game at all, because at the top of Akina Mountain, the starting point of the downhill race, there is a huge electronic screen that constantly switches perspectives to capture every moment of 86 and FC.

In addition, loudspeakers were set up at certain intervals throughout the Akina Mountain Tournament, and spectators along the way could listen to the host's commentary on the event through these devices.

This time, the Akina Mountain downhill race between Fujiwara Takumi and Takahashi Ryosuke can be said to be perfectly prepared!

It remains to be seen who will win and who will lose.

Even some underground gambling games began to open, betting on the outcome of Fujiwara Takumi and Takahashi Ryosuke.

Deliberately slowing down and following behind me?

Then just enjoy the baptism of exhaust fumes.

Fujiwara Takumi saw from the rearview mirror that Takahashi Ryosuke's FC suddenly slowed down and followed closely behind him, and he smiled coldly.

With Takahashi Ryosuke's skills and the FC's current 260 horsepower, how could it not exceed the 86 in a straight line? The only possibility is that Takahashi Ryosuke did it on purpose!

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

After pulling away from Fujiwara Takumi, Takahashi Ryosuke stepped on the accelerator and followed closely behind 86.

"Haha, big brother has always been like this. In the most important racing competitions, he always lets his opponent go first, and then overtakes at the crucial moment!"

"Everything goes according to plan!"

"Victory will definitely belong to Big Brother!"

Takahashi Keisuke watched the 86 whizz by, but he felt very calm and kept muttering to himself.

"Buzz!"

Fujiwara Takumi shifted up another gear and the speed soared to 145 kilometers per hour!

We are about to enter the bend!

Fujiwara Takumi turned the steering wheel in advance, shifted to third gear, stepped on the clutch, braked, and stepped on the accelerator.

"Buzz buzz buzz! 9"

"squeak--"

86 did a cool drift.

"squeak--"

FC followed closely behind and also did a beautiful tail swing.

The moment of exiting the corner, Takumi Fujiwara quickly shifted into fourth gear and stepped hard on the accelerator to ensure that the exit speed remained very fast.

Drifting inside! Both of them are not vegetarians!

"Drift inside at the same time!"

"Wow! The first turn is so exciting!"

At this time, the host held a microphone and explained a series of actions of 86 and FC to the scene on the big screen, and his voice was clearly heard by the audience.

"As I remember, Ryosuke Takahashi seldom uses inside drift in competitions. It's rare to see him do it so well!" The host kept praising Ryosuke Takahashi.

Takumi, you have to win it back for me!

"Right, Ikeya-senpai."

Takeuchi Itsuki was not happy when he heard the host praising Takahashi Ryosuke non-stop. He turned to Iketani Koichiro next to him and said,

"what?"

Yes, that's right!

Koichiro Ikedani nodded unconfidently.

"Buzz!"

It was another sharp turn, and Fujiwara Takumi used all his strength to drift through the turn.

Drifting is the fastest way to deal with this kind of sharp curve.

Not negotiable!

It’s really surprising that the tactics used by 86 today are very different from before.

Takahashi Ryosuke followed behind, carefully observing every driving trajectory and technique of the 86, muttering to himself.

"Buzz!"

The speed is rising rapidly.

At this extreme speed, everything around you becomes a blur except the road ahead.

The people watching on the roadside were shocked every time 86 and FC flashed by. They were so fast that before they could see clearly what was happening, 86 and FC had disappeared from their sight.

"Squeak!"

On the high-speed curve, Takumi Fujiwara did another sliding drift.

Ryosuke Takahashi, who was sitting in the FC, felt a little tired.

"That kid 86 is completely transformed tonight, he's much faster than before!" Takahashi Ryosuke followed behind, finding it unbelievable.

The more he watched 86's operations, the more stressed Takahashi Ryosuke felt.

This was different from what Ryosuke Takahashi had expected. He thought that following behind would make 86 feel oppressed and force 86 to make mistakes under the heavy pressure.

But Takahashi Ryosuke was overthinking it. 86 always took perfect routes in every turn. On the contrary, he, who was at the back, felt pressured because of 86's operation.

Fujiwara Takumi, however, looked calm and composed.

Even a little bit want to laugh,

It's rare to meet someone who actively chases tail gas.

In the stabilization phase of the second half of the drift, the steering wheel barely moved, but… the counter-steering force when exiting the corner became smaller. Some of the shortcomings I discovered before have now completely disappeared on the 86! "Watching the 86 take the shortest route to turn every time, Fujiwara Takumi was secretly surprised. If it hadn't been for the 260-horsepower engine, he would have definitely failed today!

A 350-horsepower car is too prone to understeer when accelerating through a corner.

Considering 86's sudden evolution, it seems... I have to adjust the strategy in the computer simulation, but... that's it!"

"The result will not change, I will still be the winner."
