Difference between the anime and manga

 * Ryosuke Takahashi's race is after Takumi Fujiwara raced Impact Blue and Kenta Nakamura on Myogi Downhill. In the manga, Ryosuke's race was first, with the said races following afterwards.
 * Itsuki Takeuchi had a girlfriend named Saori who only appeared in the anime. This would lead up to an accident that would never happen in the manga, inflicted onto Itsuki by Shingo Shoji. The following race would proceed as normal, albeit with the absence of Itsuki.
