"Will the Akagi Red Suns burn brightest? After two white-knuckle races against Takeshi Nakazato and Shingo Shoji of the Myogi Night Kids, Takumi is faced with a challenge from none other than the “White Comet”—Ryosuke Takahashi. Ryosuke has been observing Takumi’s extraordinary driving skills and fine-tuning his Mazda FC3S RX-7 to face Takumi’s Trueno Eight-Six. Will pure instinct be enough to overcome theoretical prowess? Moreover, a challenge is starting to brew beyond Mount Akina, on twisty roads in the Usui Pass that Takumi has never drifted on before. And will this challenge prove that Takumi is just a regular driver on unfamiliar roads?"
