On the Zhenming Mountain Road.

Just when Sousuke Araki's thoughts drifted away, the two cars that rushed out of the starting point one after the other had ushered in the first corner.

Taichi Shashima immediately stomped on the accelerator, turned the steering wheel frantically, and hit the brakes at the same time.

The RX-10, with its nose on the inside of the corner, started the corner with a very standard drift.

Brake drift.

This is the driving skill that Taichi Shashima has honed on this mountain road for many years, and is as proficient as breathing.

He grew up in Gunma Prefecture since he was a child. From the age of 13, his father put a glass of beer in the middle of the driver's seat every day, and let him cross this mountain road in the early morning to deliver sausages to the restaurant.

If the beer spilled or the sausage broke, he would be tortured by "broken sausage" when he returned home when he was young, so this mountain road was as familiar to him as his own home.

For racing competitions such as F1, although it is slightly less enjoyable to walk around the corners, it is indeed a more efficient and stable cornering method than drifting, but...

On a track like Harunayama, where the whole body turns 180 degrees, the only way to corner is to drift.

Drift, also known as tail drift, is a side-slip driving method in which the front wheels maintain grip and the rear wheels lose grip.

For a two-wheeled locomotive, especially a light locomotive such as the XJR4000, it is extremely unstable and almost impossible to incorporate into routine operations.

Drifting a two-wheeled locomotive, whether the center of gravity is out of balance, or one of the front and rear wheels slips, will lead to extremely terrible results.

Just now, he specially saw that the XJR4000 only used cheap tires, not the front and rear wheels with different grips that were equipped to create a difference in rotational torque.

When the speed of the locomotive rises, the front of the locomotive is difficult to steer. If you do not use drift but ordinary bending, you will inevitably lose a lot of kinetic energy.

Just when Taichi Shashima thought that the other party would lose speed due to cornering and be overtaken by his handsome drifter...

The XJR4000 in front began to sprint into the corner at a faster speed.

"With such an increase in speed, is that guy going to hit the guardrail directly?"

Just when he thought so, Araki Sousuke fell down in the direction of the inward bend, as if he had crashed due to an operation error...

With this rather abrupt fall, the "Sengoku Samurai" skimmed the curve in front of him by sticking to the ground at an extreme distance, and disappeared from the sight of the RX-10.

"What?!! Can bending be done to this extent?"

Taichi Shashima looked at the scene in surprise and almost made a mistake.

Using the headlights, he could clearly see that at that moment, Araki Sousuke's knees and elbows were only no more than five centimeters from the ground.

Bending is a very basic cornering skill for motorcycles.

However, basic does not mean easy to master.

Like Araki Sosuke's extreme high-speed bending, in addition to the correct bending route and precise control of the accelerator and brake, it also requires strong physical fitness and control ability to maintain the balance of the forces on all sides of the locomotive. At the same time, it avoids accidents caused by friction with the ground.

Is this guy hiding the Hulk inside his body?

……

"Brother Araki is fine... After all, he hasn't run down this road for almost three years after that incident."

On the top of the mountain, Kenjiro nervously looked at the vanishing taillights in the distance.

"Don't worry, Brother Araki, but he's the only one who has matched Brother Kosaka's record."

Ichimoto Miyako, who was putting an ice pack on his face, looked up at the starry sky above his head, and seemed not at all worried about the result of the match.

"Hmph, you are so naive to use that old Yamaha to still want to win Taichi Shashima's RX-10..."

Jin Shanzhang, who was beside him, heard the two talking and chuckled disdainfully.

Taichi Shashima is a god-level driver dug by the trio with great effort. He dominates the order of the underground car race and the betting handicap with his amazing driving skills.

"The one who took the lead in the first corner was... XJR4000?! He didn't decelerate at all. With the minimum cornering and extreme touchdown, he maintained a fairly high cornering speed..."

At the same time, a message from the first corner came from the walkie-talkie on the side.

Jin Shanzhang's expression suddenly changed.

Normally, the first corner would be enough for Taichi Shashima to shake off his opponent.

"Your Excellency may not know that a few years ago, there was a popular saying in Harunayama..."

Ichimoto Palace leaned against the railing and looked up at the sky.

Hearing his words, Kenjiro seemed to remember something, and he answered with tears in his eyes: "From the moment he leaned over, the game is over."

Brother Araki, is the only one who inherited "death sticking to the ground" from that person.

……

"The second and third bends are U-shaped reverse chain bends. I see how you can press..."

On the downhill, Taichi Shashima bit the XJR4000 from behind.

He failed to pass the opponent in the first corner, because he underestimated the enemy.

But for the victory of the game, he is determined to win.

After all, his RX-10 uses the latest turbocharged three-rotor engine technology, with two electric motors to provide power to the front axle, with a combined total output of up to 1030 horsepower.

No matter how good the technology is, it also needs powerful hardware to play.

On the straight road, the RX-10 is like a cheetah waiting for its prey in the grass, biting tightly on the XJR4000 in front of it.

As soon as he enters the outside of the corner, he will rely on the high speed to run in parallel with the opponent, and in the next reverse corner, when the inside and outside are reversed, he will use the advantage of the inside to successfully overtake.

This is a technique called counter-passing.

Facing the consecutive bends ahead, the RX-10 swings its head slightly after a skilled drift, and immediately enters the second bend with a reverse drift.

Inertial drift.

However, even though he relied on the perfect operation to rush out of that chain of corners, he found that the opponent's taillights had disappeared in the next corner.

Because of that XJR4000, just now, with the terrifying cornering skills of being infinitely close to the ground, it passed the chain of reverse curves with almost no deceleration.

"How is that possible?!! How could he be faster than me by continuously turning in the opposite direction... That guy can actually use the technique of shifting the center of gravity to such an extreme?"

This reminded him of a nickname he heard on Mount Haruna many years ago ~lightnovelpub.net~.

"Invisible taillights".

"If that's the case, let's decide on a straight line."

Taichi Shashima gritted his teeth, and with the high speed of the RX-10, he soon saw the opponent's taillights again on the straight ahead.

"I'm catching up again... After all, is the performance gap too big?"

Seeing the rapidly approaching headlights in the rearview mirror, Sousuke Araki sighed slightly.

XJR4000, as a four-cylinder **** car born in the 1990s, is famous for its explosive sound waves and refreshing power.

Although Sosuke Araki's XJR4000 has undergone many explosive changes over the years, in front of the latest RX-10, it can only be called a "retro sports model", and it is at a complete disadvantage in terms of performance. Appears to be weak.

"Hmph, let me show you that in this fast-paced era, slow-burning classic cars also have their own charm."

With that in mind, Sousuke Araki took his eyes off the rearview mirror and focused on the road ahead.
