Chapter 061

The End (決着, Ketchaku, "Conclusion") is the sixty-first chapter of Initial D.

Plot
Mako realises that focusing on Takumi has messed up her rhythm, and decides not to look into her mirrors again. Sayuki tells Mako that there's an oncoming car, but that they won't pass it for three turns. Both cars pass the oncoming car, and pick their speed back up again. Sayuki realises Mako is pushing the car too hard, but chooses not to tell her so that she doesn't break her rhythm. Takumi struggles to keep up with the new pace of the SilEighty, and Sayuki realises that he's falling behind. As she puts her attention back to the road ahead of them, she realises that Mako is entering the next corner too hard. The SilEighty spins out, and Sayuki prays the Eight-Six won't hit them.
