Chapter 107

Sayonara, My Sweet Eight Six (さよなら大好きなハチロク, Sayonara Daisuki na Hachi Roku, "Goodbye Beloved Eight-Six") is the one hundred and seventh chapter of Initial D.

Plot
Kyoichi takes the corner, and floors it into the straightaway. Takumi sees Kyoichi leaving him behind, and realises that he has lost. In the same instance, the Eight-Six's engine blows, sending the car into a spin that ends with it stopped in the parking area along the side of the road. Takumi gets out and looks at the now dead Eight-Six. Kyoichi pulls up, and tells Takumi that traditionally a blown engine means that he loses the race, but as he doesn't consider it a race he can forget about it. He says that the Eight-Six looks beyond repair, and that he should scrap it and get a real car, so that they can race again.
