Yea! Early update! I am really sorry about that tragic chapter, but every good story must have a tragic scene. I hope this can bright up your mood.


Okay if you are stuck between in the freezing cold weather and a car. You will be more likely choosing the car as an option. But not Fumihiro he much rather be frozen as a Popsicle then ride along with Akagi's White Comet. Riding shotgun of the FC is a very frightening experience, he heard from Keisuke it's The Scariest thing he every done. Much scarier than going on gang fights, riding on his motorcycle without a helmet. The windows that used to see white capped trees are now a white blur. The windshield shows a winding pass that shown a white road and turns just kept coming with or without braking. The FC's accretion is like a flowing river, braking came so suddenly and very late.

"Wait Ryosuke, its daylight won't there be incoming cars? Asked Fumihiro

"What are you talking about? This is my daylight line." Said Ryosuke not bothered by that comment.

At another turn Ryosuke gunned the apex, the g-force pushed Fumihiro deeper into his seat. Sometimes there is no warning when the car will stop, but when Ryosuke finally slow down Fumihiro was breaking cold sweat.

"Not bad for a rotary twin turbo." Muttered Ryosuke as Fumihiro sighed in relieve. The FC quieted down as they drove to Takashi city. They arrived at Family's restaurant; Fumihiro ordered two coffees as a waitress came by to take their orders.

"Hey Fumihiro I been doing some thinking lately. Why don't we make a new racing team?"

Fumihiro who just recovered from his shock from Mt Akagi, quickly turned his attention to Ryosuke.

"Wait you mean….?

"Exactly I find it fun, almost like a game."

"Ryosuke, please give me some hints. I'm lost"

"Okay then, how about a team that is the best in north Kanto.

"Is that even possible? Not that I'm questioning your skills."

"It is very possible, believe me Fumihiro it will become a reality."

"But how do we start?"

"We start by recruiting the exceptional racers in Gunma. Even Keisuke wants to join, but he still needs a car." Fumihiro remain silent as a genus plans his schems for his future team.


Weeks later,

"You do fine Keisuke, just remember not to revved the engine so high and freak the instructor out." Said Ryosuke calmly as Keisuke panicked near the entrance of the main building.

"Calm down! Easy for you to say Aniki! You winged it like it was nothing."

"Listen Keisuke, it's not as hard as you think. Just listen to the instructor and follow his or her's instructions."

"Okay whatever you say Aniki." And with that Keisuke disappeared at the double oak doors of the office building. Ryosuke sighed deeply as stared out in the open. He had complete faith in Keisuke, other than the thought he did burned the old clutch of the FC three times. The burned clutch need to replace, which had taken a week to repair, but otherwise no problem installing the new one. Okay maybe the other time when Keisuke inserted the wrong gear, maybe another one he wasn't paying attention to the tachometer and over revved the FC. Thank god for bucket seats, after 3 times the FC has been stalled he would have a whiplash. After a while Keisuke got the rhyme of shifting, and another problem aroused; they weren't smooth as he hoped.


An hour later of waiting patiently, Keisuke emerged from the double oak doors. He was grinning as he flashed out his lisenes at Ryosuke.

"I did it! You are right Aniki it was easy."

"Well done Keisuke now we can look for a car tomorrow.

"Yeah, I had been thinking what car I should get. Uhm… what car is yours again?" It had taken all of his willpower not to roll his eyes at Keisuke.

"It's a Mazda Infini Rx7, or FC3s for short." Answered Ryosuke as turned the key to ignition, the FC idled quietly as Ryosuke carefully engaged the engine.


The next day both Ryosuke and Keisuke arrived at the same dealership that he himself went. The cars there were more updated since the last time Ryosuke came. At the Honda dealer, it displayed a CR-X. Mitsubishi pulls out a Mitsubishi Starion, Mazda still improving the Mazda RX 7 second generation, and last but not least Nissan GTR R32 shines inside the showroom.

"Whoa, this is huge."

"Yeah I know, so Keisuke where do you want to start?"

They went to the Honda dealership, but Keisuke doesn't like the designs of the new CR-X. Mitsubishi was next but Keisuke still complain about the looks. Ryosuke hoped that Keisuke will make a decision soon; he had to tutor his younger cousin Tsugumi. He nearly had to drag Keisuke to check out the new GTR.

"Okay Keisuke this is the last one. You better hurry up or Tsugumi will come after you."

"Nah what kind harm can she do, blackmail us?"

Ryosuke hoped his life can be saved by the same dealership he gone two years ago. They were greeted by Takashi-san.

"Ah Ryosuke-san came back to see the new Rx 7s?"

"Hai, but it's not me this time, it is my brother Keisuke."

"I honored to meet you Keisuke-kun" said Takashi-san bowing to Keisuke who returned the gesture.

"Same to you too Takashi-san." Said Keisuke

"You're in luck a new shipment of FDs just arrived fresh from the manufactures."

Takashi-san strolled along a long row of Rx7s and select in random as he open the car's bonnet.

"Mazda just improved the FC to an FD from the max speed of 252, the acceleration from 0-60 mph in 4.9 seconds, max torque is about 217 lb-ft and at a rpm of 5000.. It's a Wankel Rotary just like your brother has but this one is powered by a 13B-REW Intercooled Sequential twin turbo. Two rotary you can tune it to supercharger. The layout is still the same Front engine Rear wheel drive, The suspension at the front is an independent, double-wishbone by unequal length upper and lower arms, coil springs, telescopic dampers and anti-roll bar……"


Keisuke could only understand half of the stuff Takashi-san was saying. Ryosuke however understand every single word that he uttered.

"What do you think Keisuke?" Ryosuke asked as Takashi-san had done speaking about the specs of the FD.

"Well it does sounds like a great car to drive…."

"It sure is, especially it's made for turning perfect in corners."

It does look cool compare from the rest of the cars I seen. I hope Aniki could just decipher what all those codes are about. Thought Keisuke examined every angle of the FD.

"I love it Aniki, but can we test drive it?" asked Keisuke

"Of course, we have a demo out in the front." Said Takashi-san as he gestured outside the dealership.

"Great! Aniki you try."

"No thanks Keisuke besides it's going to be your car."


Inside the FD:

"This is great! I loved that rotary sound, just listen to it!"

Keisuke shifted up a gear and the g-force started to his chest. Next to the passenger seat Ryosuke is really please that Keisuke finally chosen a car he likes. After coming back from the test drive Keisuke declared that he wanted the car.

"I love it, I must definitely take it."

Keisuke signed all the papers and paused at the order form. Only one question puzzled him, what colour should his car it be? The colours are midnight blue, pearl white, carbon black and brilliant yellow. He shrugged again and circle "brilliant yellow" he noticed his brother watching him curiosity.

"What? It's flashily isn't it?"

Keisuke watched his brother sighed in annoyance at his childish answer.
