Initial D Wiki

The battle between Takeshi Nakazato and Eikichi Shimamura is an anime exclusive battle in Initial D First Stage.

Prior to the Battle[]

After an impromptu battle against Ryosuke Takahashi, Nakazato thinks back to the battle that made him get his R32.

During the Battle[]

Takeshi is annoyed by Shimamura's ability to stay ahead of him, as his technique is better and Shimamura's GT-R isn't drifting. Before a corner, Takeshi manages to overtake the GT-R, but he drifts into the guard rail, causing him to crash and lose the race.

After the Battle[]

Takeshi realizes that he would be unable to beat an R32 with his S13. In the present, he explains that he believes he will be able to beat the Eight-Six because nobody is able to drive past the limits of their car.

Nakazato would later have a rematch with Shimamura.
