Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Spectator
Ah Shu was on the side, and there was no way to interject. He couldn't understand the communication between Iketani and Takeuchi Shu, but he could feel that the friendship between the two of them seemed to be better than he imagined.
The game is about to begin.
Iketani walks towards his S13, and Ah Shu and Takeuchi Shu, who are bystanders, can only watch him, but they can't help much.
Before departure, it is the members of RedSuns who act as the ones who call the shots.
Takeuchi's current position can clearly see the two cars, both of which are located on the starting line. Iketani's S13 is on the left, and Keisuke Takahashi's RX7 is on the right, and the two cars are parked side by side, both in a state of ignition.
His gaze turned to the man in the RedSuns camp who seemed to have confessed to Keisuke Takahashi before.
An emaciated figure, a delicate and handsome face, wearing a casual suit, looks like a Sven figure. It should be the leader of RedSuns, the number one person in Akagi, Ryosuke Takahashi!
It's really the same as the image in the comics.
And that feels very direct!
Ryosuke Takahashi didn't drive his own car, he stood near the starting point, drinking a can of drink, and stood there watching the game with ease, seemingly not worried about his brother's victory or loss.
Confident, calm.
As a driver, or the same kind of driver, Takeuchi Shu captured the temperament of a good driver from this man. It can be said that his existence is another opponent in the world of the initial D, in addition to Takuha, who makes him feel refreshed!
Ryosuke Takahashi didn't notice himself.
He stood there alone, in a different world from the entourage who were keen on the game.
One thought of coming into this world myself. I have seen Fujiwara Takumi and Takahashi Ryosuke successively, these former idols, and I feel that I have fulfilled my dream in this life.
If you can play a real game with them.
Then this dream, it's too enjoyable.
"Uncle, what are you looking at?" Ah Shu looked at Wu Neixiu's distraction and asked out loud.
Takeuchi Xiu shook his head slightly, looked at the two cars that were in the preparation stage for starting, and said to Ah Shu, "It's nothing. It's time to start soon. ”
"Hmm." Ah Shu held his breath and looked at the RedSuns members who had already counted the seconds.
The two cars were in the state of ignition, and they had already entered the preparatory stage of being ready to go at any time, and from the whispering engine sound and the subtle body shaking, you could feel that they were holding back their full power.
Takeuchi Shu is not as excited as Ah Shu, he is used to seeing races, and deep down, he is analyzing the data of the start of the two cars.
Iketani's S13 should suffer at this very critical moment of starting.
After all, the RX7 is stronger in terms of power output, and Keisuke Takahashi, a perennial drag racer, is also very good at running in an instant.
So although Takeuchi Xiu didn't want to agree, he was already sure in his heart.
In the state of Keisuke Takahashi's infallibility, Iketani's S13 will be in a backward state as soon as it starts.
As the RedSuns members raised their voices, they finally shouted the word "go" from their throats.
The two cars are like wild horses, and in an instant, with the sound of steaming engines, they quickly rushed out of the starting line!
At the foot of Mt. Akina, all the car players who watched the race were boiling, and everyone cheered and cheered for the riders they supported. Among them, the loudest voices are the members of Speedstars who support Iketani!
Although the preparation before the start is not as professional as that of the RedSuns, when it comes to cheering, they are the local drivers who will not lose out to provocative outsiders.
Iketani's name was shouted together, and even Ah Shu, who was next to Takeuchi Hide, also blended in.
That's the atmosphere of the game!
This is the blood that drag racing gives to men.
The two cars started and when they rushed out of twenty or thirty meters, the winner and loser were already decided.
Takeuchi Shu saw it at a glance.
The white shadow, that is, Iketani's S13, was instantly pulled away by the RX7 by half a parking space, and was in a backward position.
And that's to be expected. The disadvantage of horsepower, which will be apparent at the beginning, is a fate that cannot be changed.
"How can this be, come on, Iketani-senpai!" Ah Shu shouted loudly.
Takeuchi didn't pay attention to him, his eyes were firmly fixed on the two cars that rushed out of the starting line and were trying their best to fight for the advantage.
Like him, Ryosuke Takahashi, who was standing not far away, put down the drink can in his hand, and stared intently at the miniature of the two cars and the halo of the tail lights left behind.
The speed of the car was very fast, almost a few seconds away, and the two cars disappeared from the end of sight.
Ah Shu was a little nervous, he watched this kind of drag racing race for the first time, and saw that Ikeya was behind in the starting stage, and his face was a little ugly. He came here to support Iketani, and of course he didn't want to see his seniors close to him lose this game.
All the shouts and cheers fell silent.
At this time, the walkie-talkie in the hand of a RedSuns member rang, making everyone who had lost their goal regain their spirits.
"The two cars were driving on a straight mountain road, and now it was Keisuke's RX7 in the lead, followed by the S13. The two cars were moving at high speeds, maintaining a distance of half a body. ”
The sound of the walkie-talkie was clear and loud enough for everyone present to hear.
Takeuchi Shu listened carefully, knowing that this was RedSuns' pre-arranged manpower at various mountain road nodes in Akinayama in advance to broadcast the live broadcast of the game, so that all the spectators who were waiting for the results could be informed of the news as soon as possible.
Akinayama is an uphill acceleration course at the beginning of the mountain road, which is a beginner's map for a long drive.
In Takeuchi's view, the uphill test is the torqueness of the car, and this straight-line acceleration is suitable for those vehicles with high horsepower output to find the leading edge in the early stage. Keisuke Takahashi is not good at following, he is used to pressing people with momentum, and he will choose to choose at the first time, widen the gap between the two cars, and be in the leading position.
Therefore, the S13 is bound to be suppressed by the momentum of the RX7 after the start is behind.
After running countless times on the mountain road of Akinayama, Takeuchi Shu looked at the majestic peaks under the night, and the winding road was dotted with street lamps.
He knew that the current Iketani should be very tormented.
He used to be a newcomer, and he suffered from this taste.
When the opponent is ahead, it creates invisible pressure. And constantly pulling away will increase the pressure. If you are a driver with a fragile heart, there is a possibility of collapse at any time.
Takeuchi clenched his fists.
"Ikeya, remember what I said, and keep your heart steady."
He is not an immortal, and he has no way to convey his thoughts.
So at this time, I just hope that Iketani can really hold on.
I haven't forgotten what I have explained.
