The roadster guy is the most realistic street racer in the series. Needs to borrow money for tires, girlfriend hates him and his stupid car, wipes out from overdriving
Honestly, I'm actually curious what some of the other racers in the show do for work, like I know the Takahashi brothers come from a rich family but what about Nakazato how does he afford his r32 lol
@@bri12345ification in the beginning you get crazy, spending all the money you got. That's basically Nakazato story. He is started from scratch, and climbed his way to the top.
9:51 I've had some people I've shown this to ask me, so I'll say it here in case anyone else is wondering. The reason why he lifts his hands off the steering wheel isn't just him "giving up" or "falling into despair", though it kind of sort of is. The real reason is that at such speeds and angle, the impact of a potential crash can quickly and powerfully twist the steering wheel, so holding onto it might lead to additional hand/finger/wrist injury. If you've ever hit something in a car or watched onboard footage of F1 crashes (as those tend to be more powerful) you'll know. In the last moment, he realizes he can't avoid a crash at that point, so he decides that since he's already going to go up in the air, might as well minimize potential injury. So yes, he does "give up" at that point, but not simply for dramatic effect.
I don’t know if this is on purpose but this is very technically accurate. A first or second generation miata has almost no suspension travel at the rear. Even without being lowered the bump stops account for most of your rear suspension spring effect. By comparison an AE86 has a solid rear axle, like a pickup truck. So it has a lot more suspension travel to do funky weight shifting tricks. This is a bad thing for handling, but works great in a cartoon for doing crazy party tricks :)
@@thevictoryoverhimself7298 Miata is better for gripping. Obviously it’s a drift show but in a real touge race the miata would win. Plus his GF probably bought him cheap tires lol

Toru is my role model. Imagine the kind of rizz this man has to have in order to not only constantly ignore his girlfriend to race his Miata, but also to convince her to buy him new tires as they are mid conversion about how he races his Miata too much and doesn't spend enough time with her. I have already crashed my Miata, now I just just need to get a girlfriend and convince her to buy me racecar parts 😤
Or probably wouldn’t let Miata pass him. Who knows if your opponent could do the same as you do or not, if you have done it first time. You still wouldn’t want your opponent to pass you.
@@Lampstand1 That's not the point. The point is that Tohru got lucky otherwise...his girlfriend, soon wife, would have regretted saying such harsh words...
To anyone who is about to bash the creator for naming the title "wrong", you're the one who's wrong. In Japan, the NA6CE was sold as the "Eunos Roadster" during 1989 up until 1997, while it was marketed as the "Mazda MX-5" and "Mazda Miata" in the rest of the world and the United States respectively. Get your facts right before commenting anything that could be potentially disrespectful.
@@JamilmariamX If you think getting out correct information out is mean then idk what fucking world you live in lol. There were some nasty comments being pretty harsh toward the video poster because of the title.
I watched to original TV series back when its first aired. this overtake moment still giving me goosebumps and had the similar badass feeling like the first stage AE86 vs R32 gutter overtake.
@@Kago446 nope, the scene here was to shine a light on the achilles heel of more advanced suspension configuration like the NA6C's multilink setup against the AE86 traditional mcpherson strut type's behaviour when without load. While multilink and double wishbone design were optimized for all four corners of tyres to gain the maximum contact patch(theoretically more traction) at all times through passive toe and camber gain by allowing more axis articulation, both the the double wishbone and multilink were designed to operate on inside out flipped version of caster's leverage, the textbook tuning of these suspension configuration have always been 1.5x rebound compared to compression, so the natural behaviour of the wheel on the MX-5 inherently goes down, pushes the wheel towards the ground on a inner camber arc when there's zero suspension load, as opposed to the AE86's strut just hanging there, relying on weight transfer clearing the huge gap for a fraction of seconds. The fact that most top level AE86 tuning houses were still running weld-on coilovers on chopped short stroke strut bodies(limited suspension travel) due to the lack of 2-way adjustable coilovers for this archaic platform also does not help the MX-5's case much either. Also the AE86 has live axle rear end, there's basically no suspension, the same reason why S197 runs into crowds all the time and drifter favours cars with obselete suspension like these for drifting, doing the one thing that a working suspension is not suppose to do: breaking traction out of incompetence.
Correct me if I’m wrong but Takumi kept his foot on the gas, transferring the weight to the rear which made the front light enough to “glide” through the ditch. Tohru probably thought it was a magic trick and tried to copy it without knowing how, his heavy front then fell into the ditch.
I think Toru is the most realistic street racer in the series just like Iketani, Kenji and Itsuki. I mean not all street racer at that time is a old money or rich af and have daddy's money just like our duo rotary boi. Yeah i know Takumi also is not that rich but Bunta have good connection to some people at motorsport like Keiichi Tsuchiya and Masashi (the guy who helped Bunta to installed the 4AGE Silvertop at second stage) so he can perfectly built that AE86 and yeah.. How many yen he did spend for those tires and of course its not a cheap tire..
I used to wach it and my dad told me that the 86 changed the suspension in the chassis to do the complete opposite of the gutter run but the mx5 can’t do it
Who on earth drives blindly in the dark without lights to recognize the line while focusing on his rival's movement No one would DARE to do that unlike Takumi who uses his opponents headlights to show the line for him. Toru never bothered doing that since his mind is in disarray on what he just witnessed and to everyone that isnt like takumi, a VERY DUMB THING TO DO in a race. Blind attack is the same thing as using the Gutter run, Like what Nakazato said "Simple but stupid" because no one with common sense would do this in a street race at high speed. People like Tak are built different in driving sense.
Me going please land up right when the Miata flipped so he wouldn't get folded. Don't know if Tohru's Miata has a rollbar because without one rolling = death in those which is my biggest fear in mine when I start power sliding really should get one or I might not be lucky like him.
@@LukeMM95 they never say that the car isn’t tuned, and from the sound of the Roadster it makes sounds like Individual throttle bodies, so im assuming it is tuned.
Ngl, id hate myself in this Miata driver's shoes. Imagine your girl gets you the car(kinda looks that way from flashback) and helps you fund the build and you wreck it trying to match up skills by doing somethi g you dont understand and possibly dying. Bruh.
In my opinion i think that the crash is ridiculous and absolutely breaks the laws of physics, and the driver is completely unharmed after the crash, and before you tell me "but no one was harm in inital d" ill remind you, Iketani crashed and hit he's head pretty badly and hes silvia was destroyed, itsuki got very injured and had to be hospitalized and shingo broke he's arm and hes car gets very damage. I think that it would have been more shocking if he got injured pretty badly or worst, would have died, because that would have been a incredible opportunity to show that besides the eurobeat, the adrenaline, the cars and skills, we should never forget the risk at the time of racing and doing a small mistake could cost you a horrible injury or worst, your life and this is why i consider this race kinda ridiculous and a waste of potential to show that togue although fun is very risky and dangerous
