Air Battle (空中戦, Kūchū Sen, "Air Battle") is the one hundred and seventy-first chapter of Initial D.
Plot[]
Takumi remembers Bunta's words, that the second bridge will be tight, but he'll just have to go over the third bridge as fast as he can, and hope that luck is in his favour. Kyoichi is surprised to see the two cars crossing the second bridge side by side. The members of Emperor watch in shock as they take the ramp after the bridge at the same time. Kai realises that his side of the road is covered in leaves. As the two cars touch down, the MR2 spins out and Takumi narrowly avoids a collision. Kyoichi isn't surprised that the leaves were the determining factor, but admits that Takumi had more than just luck on his side.
At the start line, the SpeedStars are told that Takumi won the race, and they celebrate.
