Takumi’s job as a tofu delivery boy has turned him into one of the most formidable drivers around. Behind the wheel of his Eight-Six, he’s one with the road-and his life shifts into high gear when the underground street racing world takes notice. Drivers from across the region are lining up for a shot at the new guy. Takumi’s not just focused on winning-he’s out to prove he’s the best.
If you buy a large item at a hardware store in Japan, instead of delivery you can sometimes borrow one of these trucks for free and take your stuff home with the caveat that you've only got 30 minutes to return it, which practically encourages you to drive irresponsibly. I'm not the most experienced driver, but kei trucks are pretty fun to drive compared to some of the other kei vehicles, so I guess the person that translated the vehicle to this game did a great job.
Tell you what, I took this beast for a jaunt round the Monaco F1 track and it's actually one of the funnest lapping experiences I've had in AC. It's fantastic fun
The karting place that I go to uses the exact same thing to fix barriers around the track. And everyone has always wondered how fast it would go around the track. Guess this is the next best thing
My buddy just recently got a Subaru Sambar (the Honda's twin). Fun little truck. Although, in the land of massive SUV's and HORRIBLE drivers it's quite a challenge to not get killed in traffic at times.
I'm quite sure driving slow underpowered cars is a great way to learn the art of conserving momentum. Those skills will add fractions of a second everywhere in a quick car.
im so glad you didnt end this series, there are so many fun cars to lap around this track; never stop this series, its a staple for your channel! also, create a server with cars like this, i love racing low hp boxy cars.
Yo Jimbo, top quality job on the Gran Turismo Oz commentary. Smashing it delivering us a new video whilst flying back business class from the other side of the planet 👍🏽
I sometimes forget that Jimmy does everything in kilometers, I was watching this video thinking "Hmm....that thing's holding 100 up that hill.....Not too horrible".
Jimmy thst is awesome! I own a 1996 Honda acty street van exactly the same just van version over in New Zealand so thst is sick seeing this. Love your work mate
Now that we can safely say that the Norschleife series isn't over, I'd LOVE to see you take the bonkersly mad machine known as the Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo around Nordschleife. Also R8 LMP900 would be glorious to see as well.
All the fast cars in the world can't compete with the difficulties of driving a slow car. It's a completely different world. The X2010 takes concentration and sheer skill. The Honderp K-truck takes a good night sleep and long-term planning. I love it.
Gday Jimmy, looks like a bit of fun 👍🏼 I personally love Driving the Mini Cooper (Original Mini) on Super Soft compond Tyres against N200 Cat. Set on Professional at 30mins Endurance Mode (GT Sport) What a Blast & Challenging. Keep up those great Videos 👍🏼😊
Well done at the GTS World Tour event mate. After doing the car / circuit tours for each race, I reckon it’s time for PD to release the JImmy DLC to go alongside the Hamilton DLC. 😂
I can confirm it is fun to drive, I drove one of those for 4 years, but is was an extended version, and it was a KIA, RWD 2.9 liter 140 bhp diesel with torque for weeks. Once they were cleaning the big roudabout in my city with soapy water and I happenned to be there with my empty Kia... I had fun

12 minute lap with 40 hp is actually insanely fast, lol
For the Nurgberg circuit then yes it is fast
Going through a normal one it is slow
Lol
What the hell. The first time I lapped this map was 11mins and it was with a 500HP sportscar
Made me think of a challenge for Jimmer: What's the slowest or lowest-powered car he could still get around the Nordschleife in the infamous 10 minute time limit?
When your hot lap is so hot it's 273 degrees

18 minutes even :D
Conincidentally, 16 minutes was the laptime of Hans-Joachim "Strietzel" Stuck's first Nordschleife lap in his father's BMW at the age of 11
a lot faster than benz patent
@@turboandy69 actually it was 41 BHP not HP
Pls get it right

As a driver of a brand new 60 hp Skoda Fabia this is highly relevant to me!

I gotta ask...why?
Put a rotary in this, throw on a Rocket Bunny kit and make it the Worthouse Drift team pit truck!!!!
like hoonigan did? :)
I just dscovered the '4 rotor rotary'...Turned my Maz-7 into a monster...On video driving at least....Aawsuuum

FYI: There's a k-car racing series in RL, they're actually pretty quick relatively speaking.
It's Kei. It's a Japanese word, not the English letter
With a CBR 600RR engine in it, it must budge quite well.
They even run Daihatsu Midget IIs!
There’s also an AC “”””””””league””””””””” that races k-boi’s while drinking. They’re pretty competitive cars
@@filmandfirearms K-car is correct too, that's the english version of Kei car, which is the abbreviation of keijidōsha.

Thank God I'm not the only one...lol
I just realized it's barely breaking 60mph on the downhill... Not 100

Hahaha great video Jimmy 😀. You surely beat the understeer party pooper. The arch nemesis of these kinds of speed monters.
This needs to be a channel racing series
I found your channel through drive tribe. I’m so glad I did.
That's a beautiful little thing tbh. Only Honda I've owned was an accord type R in 2001 to 2003 but this little thing looks amazing.
I love that you can have extended debates about what gear to use for each corner.
Absolute fucking legend of a car
Day 1 of me asking for Jimmy to take a *bus* or a *Kart* around the Nordschleife
yess, I was hoping at some point to see him take a bus around Nords...
Jimmy: how fast can you lap the nordschleife with 40bhp?
Me: *notice video length* "not very quickly then"
Hey this has always been a great series
Looks like my mattress and bed delivery van! let’s go mighty delivery truck! 🤣 🛌🚚🏁
Nice to see that you included the source of the mod ;)
Use that old auto union around the old 60's layout of the nordschlife, the track would be pretty close to what it was and it sounds cool to watch.
"Hey guys, lapping the 'schleife in a postage stamp so I can send it... boi here..."
Please never end this series!
Now that we can safely say that the Norschleife series isn't over, I'd LOVE to see you take the bonkersly mad machine known as the Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo around Nordschleife.
Also R8 LMP900 would be glorious to see as well.
Jimmy for real though why would you stop this series? Seems like easy and entertaining content.
Don't stop this series. Plz thank.
YES! Interested in participating with this little thing!
This was a lot like my irl lap of the ring in my 55hp Twingo with my mates, but that was even slower than the Kei truck lmao
I know there are a lot of nordschleiffe videos now but I'd keep watching them if you keep uploading them.
"´so much ground clearance i can stand up and it will drive over me"

YES! Add it to the ascended endurence series.
Nordschleife time: Yes
Doing races with these in a pub lobby would be ridiculously fun
It's 1am on a school night but Jimmy is a religion
An elegant weapon for a tarmac specialist
I think its a nice exercise to really learn the fastest line possible...
I give you a tip. When approaching up hill, be sure to hit lower gear, you will gain more speed and improve the time
12:15! Now I have a nice easy target to beat when I go to the nurburgring later this year.
This is great to learn new circuits.
My local Honda dealer has the mini van version of this vehicle on the lot right now. I soooo want to go buy it!
jimmer is the only person who can refer to things as " trucky boi" without being cringy
definetly need to see a race full of these with the rear tyre pressures at 70psi
Imagine a Honda Acty racing series
I was thinking the same I would see 60 of these destroying Nordschleife and each...
It would be called "Honda Boi Truckass Cup"
*introducing the group z series*
everybody gangsta until Jimmy rolls out the Honda Acty
