Riding the Strongest FD (最強のFD乗り, Saikyō no FD Nori, "Strongest FD Driver") is the two hundred and sixth chapter of Initial D.
Plot[]
Atsuro gloats about having more horsepower than Keisuke, and doesn't believe he can overtake him before the end of the first run. Keisuke is unimpressed by Atsuro's driving, as while he's pushing his car on the straights, his cornering is poor.
At the start line, Fumihiro relays to Ryosuke that Keisuke hasn't made his move yet, but Ryosuke tells him that he will eventually. He explains that he's had Keisuke study some racing theory, and his improvement is noticeable. He doesn't think Atsuro stands a chance.
Atsuro is confident that if he continues the way he is, he'll remain ahead of Keisuke. As the pair leave a corner, Keisuke is able to speed up, and easily passes Atsuro, leaving him confused and in shock.
