Heya /o/ just recently saw this race and thought it was the best so far, I call bullshit on how he lost, but still enjoyed it. What were your thoughts on the race? And what was your favorite race and/or moment in the entire series?
Fuck off wabo busrider shit.

As a driver of an SW20 (turbo), I can see this actually happening. I get slightly worried whenever I see leaves or any water on the road, despite the fact that I've never managed to snap oversteer (even on the track).
This is also my favorite race in all of Initial D.

Favorite is definitely the one against Shingo
>Move your- body, body, body, body, body, body...
That scene where takumi sneaks by the civic being the driven by the top student of the local racing school by turning off his lights.
Gets me everytime.
Also that moment takumis dad helps him out when he blows his engine instead of scolding him. Right in the feels.
the race in the rain from first stage, it's got the best editing and the least overly detailed side character narration dragging the action down. plus the rain itself makes for a great visual setpiece

Second Stage was quite the emotional roller coaster. I'll be honest, I almost cried.

>the style
>the angry Takumi
>the music

I still rewatch the two episodes the fight takes place in from time to time. Absolute perfection, nothing comes close

The whole jumping off ledges to cut corners was neat, but also really dumb
