History
Nakazato makes a deal with Ryosuke Takahashi that they will race against each other if the latter beat all the downhill racers in Gunma. He later arrives at the gas station to challenge Itsuki Tachibana to a race and arrives in Akina for their duel. Itsuki tries to defend his title but is embarrassed thoroughly and crashes his Nissan Silvia S13. Nakazato is later defeated in an impromptu race by Takumi Fujiwara while the latter was delivering tofu in the morning. Nakazato then begins to challenge Takumi to a race and should Takumi win, he will keep the AE86. Although Nakazato has a slight advantage over the corners, Takumi overtakes him and wins the race.

Nakazato later appeared with Ryosuke Takahashi to pick Takumi up for their race against Kyoichi Sudo. He and the rest of the NightKids later watched Takumi race Ryosuke and Sudo and cheered when Takumi won.
