The unexpected rain was so fierce that within half a minute the spectators who did not wear rain gear were drowned, and it also greatly affected the two drivers who officially entered the fighting stage.

It was originally a dark mountain road with only a few street lights. Even if the wiper was turned on in time and the frequency was adjusted to the highest frequency, the visibility was still pitifully low in the pouring rain.

The faint light from the headlights was like a candle flickering in the wind.

But even if Ryosuke Takahashi didn't deliberately raise his eyes to look at such a tiny bit of light, he could clearly catch it through the rearview mirror from the corner of his eye.

Things got really tricky.

Clearly aware of this, Ryosuke Takahashi frowned slightly.

Even his younger brother Keisuke, who drove by instinct, could guess that this heavy rain, which was absolutely unexpected, would have a great impact on his plan.

that's the truth.

The distance he dragged out by taking full advantage of the horsepower in the early stage has been used to compensate for the time lost in the difference in cornering speed between the two cars.

The time of being caught up by 86 came sooner than he imagined.

There are very few long straight roads in Akinayama. If the distance between the two cars is lost before entering the five consecutive hairpin turns, he will definitely be overtaken by Fujiwara Takumi.

In his original plan, it wasn't that there was no last chance.

The route he took was based on gripping the ground and supplemented by drifting, and he was still in his own rhythm.

Under the premise that the horsepower has been reduced, he has successfully maintained tire grip that can compete with the lighter 86.

As long as the tires can hold up, he may be able to seize the opportunity at the R-shaped compound bend after five consecutive hairpin turns and launch the only counterattack.

It happened to be raining heavily.

Takahashi Ryosuke bent his lower lip helplessly.

There is absolutely no driver in the world who really likes to drive in the rain, which symbolizes danger and the unknown.

But it is undeniable that there are always some drivers who are better at driving in the rain, or can gain certain advantages through the rain.

Clear raindrops falling on tarmac covered in thin gravel are slightly better than flat, smooth roads, but they can still change the road conditions drastically.

Just like brushing on the road with a water-containing brush, the road surface is covered with a thick layer of water film.

The water absorbed by the potholes is the culprit that can easily cause the vehicle to lose control.

If you only drive at a low speed, the water that cannot be squeezed and splashed from both sides of the tire will be squeezed into the grooves on the surface of the tire.The higher the vehicle speed, the more difficult it is for water to drain through the squeeze grooves.

Until the critical value is reached, some water that cannot be discharged in time remains on the contact surface between the tire and the road, causing the so-called slippery state as if the tire is floating on the water, which is also the fatal situation that drivers are most afraid of.

Once in such a horrible situation, even experienced professional drivers can do extremely limited remedial measures.

In addition to this extreme situation, the reduced ground adhesion due to the presence of rain alone is enough to cause headaches for drivers.

To make matters worse, Ryosuke Takahashi could clearly feel that the wrists holding the steering wheel had to be more careful and exert more force to perform fine manipulations due to the sudden intensified sway of the car body.

This is also impossible.

In heavy rain, a car with high horsepower will definitely sway more severely than a car with low horsepower.At the same time, the tires that are not suitable for this kind of weather, especially the grip of the front wheels, are also losing at an extremely fast speed.

The 86 advantage that Qiu Mingshan took because of the horsepower in the front section is going to be returned with the profit.

Realizing this, Ryosuke Takahashi couldn't help laughing.

Of course, in this downpour, the most unfavorable condition for the 86 behind is the water mist splashed by the FC driving at high speed.

Even though he couldn't see the specific situation behind, Takahashi Ryosuke had no doubts that the 86 at this time was like walking on a night road with the lights off, and it was difficult to see the road ahead clearly through just two lights.

If it was another driver, he would definitely feel instinctive fear and reduce his speed.

But... this is Qiu Ming.

Takahashi Ryosuke thought calmly.

Such unfavorable factors are nothing to Takumi Fujiwara, who has been running on Mt.

Fujiwara Takumi really doesn't like rainy days.

You can't drive too fast in rainy days, and you can't be too arbitrary when drifting, because the grip of the tires will become very untrustworthy, and you may not be able to go where you want to go obediently.

If he accidentally crashes the car, he will definitely be beaten by his father's fist.

Although the current father probably wouldn't beat him up anymore, he would definitely laugh at him for a long, long time.

Takumi Fujiwara had a mess of thoughts in his head, but he was not nervous.

——The impact of rainy days on him is indeed much smaller than that on Takahashi Ryosuke.

It is undeniable that on slippery rainy roads, the car is more prone to unexpected and dangerous movements.The sharply reduced ground adhesion will force the turning speed to decrease, and the braking distance will increase accordingly.

A skilled driver will concentrate on making subtle quick adjustments to situations that may arise anytime and anywhere and require emergency corrections.

But Takumi is familiar with the Akina road in addition to his driving skills that are difficult for ordinary people.

Although such a heavy rain is far more difficult than a clear night, but after so many years of running, he does have a lot of experience in dealing with it.

"There is no way, let's use that trick."

Takumi thought in embarrassment.

Originally, after experiencing the race with Mr. Sudo Keiichi, he tried his best to avoid taking advantage of his advantages as a local driver, but directly confronted with his strength.

However, in rainy days, the tire grip is not reliable at all, and considering the need to overtake at five consecutive hairpin turns, he still had to use it.

——Five consecutive hairpin turns.

Those spectators who didn't care about other things and just used their arms to cover the rainwater to prevent it from dripping into their eyes and affecting their eyesight had just seen the two cars fighting fiercely and saw a shocking scene.

Affected by the increasingly intense rain, FC has been forced to brake early.

As if completely abandoning the common sense that "in order to ensure that the wheels do not die violently on wet roads that suddenly become slippery, the acceleration should be reduced and the braking time should be increased", AE86 directly ignored the negative effects of the rain film on the ground. I can't believe the terrifying speed from the inside to the corner!

"It's too reluctant, it's impossible to do it in rainy days!"

"The speed is too fast, isn't the 86 driver crazy!"

"Quick, run away!"

"Turning into the corner at this speed, it is impossible for him to defend the inside line!"

The audience screamed and ran in all directions.

Coupled with the endless "cracking" noise of the rain, they completely missed the important scene of occupying the inside line and directly accelerating past the FC in front, causing the right front wheel and right rear wheel to fall into the drain on the right side of the curve.

"what?"

Takahashi Ryosuke, whose body was a little behind, vaguely caught a clue, and opened his eyes wide in surprise.

After confirming that the car body would be pulled by the ditch and would not be thrown outwards due to high speed and skidding, Takumi stepped on the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal alternately with his incredibly flexible feet, and completed it in just 0.5 seconds A difficult action beyond human comprehension.

The grip of the high-speed tires reached its limit, and the rear wheels began to spin. In the mist of water vapor, he adjusted the force of the accelerator pedal in a blink of an eye, so that he could just slide to the best speed. The car on the exit line completed the turn.

Almost feeling the moment when the tire grip recovered through the pedals, he increased the force on the accelerator and exited the corner calmly.

Of course, Fujiwara Takumi cannot ignore the danger of rainy weather. Compared with the usual cornering speed of at least 115km/h, he has dropped to the most confident early 100s for safety reasons.

He knew very well that in fact, both the angle and the position of the tail flick were slightly different from those on the dry road.

Since it is not normal road conditions, naturally it is not the best route.It can only be used according to local conditions to find a new route suitable for this amount of rainwater.

Even so, it seemed to the audience that it all happened too fast, too fast.

One moment they were still fleeing in fear of the 86 that entered the corner at super high speed in the rain like suicide. The next moment, they saw the black and white car flicking at a creepy speed. As if he didn't feel the effect of centrifugal force, he kept on the inside all the time.

The inside line has an absolute advantage, especially when it is rainy and the traditional outside-in-out route cannot be used to cut in.

Before they could react, 86 had lightly surpassed FC and galloped towards the second corner.

It's like a magician who has finished his performance. After performing magic that seems to ignore the laws of physics with ease, he ruthlessly leaves the audience who are still immersed in shock.

"How...how is it possible?" The RedSuns team member guarding here couldn't help shouting: "With that speed, how could it not be thrown out of the inside!"

The rest of the audience woke up from the silence one after another, and heatedly discussed it.

Perhaps it is that 86 has an unbelievably fascinating and unbelievably strong attraction, coupled with the perfect drift, only the viewers can't help watching it go away with awe.

FC following behind is still eye-catching—it's just that at this time, everyone's eyes on its back are more bewildered and puzzled.

No one knew that the FC driver couldn't help but relax the moment he was overtaken from his frowning.

--it is ready.

Takahashi Ryosuke sighed in relief.

He has tried his best, even if he loses, it's okay.

He saw it clearly: Takumi Fujiwara was more than just a diamond-talented driver.

More like a light.

A ray of brilliance, bright and dazzling, faster than lightning, a light that symbolizes infinite possibilities.

Thinking of this, Takahashi Ryosuke couldn't help smiling.

Such light is worth pursuing with endless time and energy.

"FC has been surpassed!"

"The impact of the rainy weather is too great. Even someone as skilled as Ryosuke Takahashi struggled against it, but what happened to that 86?"

"How did you turn that corner just now? With such a high speed, it stands to reason that he would be thrown out!"

"Damn it, I really want him to perform it again!"

"In this rainy day, even ordinary driving is scary to me, don't the two of them have any fear at all?!"

"It's so nonsense, I can't understand it at all"

"It's really hard for me to accept the possibility that Takahashi Ryosuke will lose... What kind of existence is Akina's 86!"

"I really want to sit in his co-pilot once and see for myself how he runs. Such amazing skills, sitting on it must be like riding a roller coaster, which makes people's hearts tighten."

"Just looking at it makes me feel suffocated. It's unimaginable to dare to corner at such a high speed even in rainy days."

"It was so shocking. My heart is still beating wildly. I have never been so nervous when I dated my girlfriend for the first time."

"What's the name of Akina's 86 driver? No matter who he is, I'm already in love with his running style"

"Takahashi Ryosuke is indeed very strong, but at least in terms of Akina's cornering skills, it should not be at the same level."

"The home and away factors may affect it. After all, Ryosuke Takahashi has only been here for a week."

——"Really," Keisuke Takahashi on the top of the mountain got the news that his elder brother was surpassed by 86, his expression was calm beyond everyone's expectations: "I see."

At the same time, the RedSuns players who heard the content on the intercom fell into an extremely sad silence.

Such an atmosphere was too heavy, and even Akina SpeedStars, who was supposed to be crazy about it, was infected, with a dignified expression, not knowing what to say.

After all, Ryosuke Takahashi is not only the captain of RedSuns, but also the recognized leader of mountain racers in North Kanto.

"Qisuke," Shi Hao said with a dazed expression, "Ryosuke... really lost?"

The invincible Akagi White Comet was really defeated on the small Qiuming Mountain?

Even in the past few days, Shi Hao has seen Fujiwara Takumi's amazing running style several times, but he still cannot accept the shattering of the myth of invincibility.

"Probably. With this rain, the strategy of counterattacking at the final R-shaped compound corner may not be effective."

Perhaps it was because of the strong sense of uneasiness when the heavy rain just fell, and Keisuke Takahashi, who had suffered from that kind of suffering, had miraculously calmed down.

Even he was surprised at his current mood, which could be called relaxed: "Brother must have expected it."

After an extremely long minute, the final result of the game came from the bottom of the mountain.

——Akina's AE86 won an undoubted victory with an absolute advantage of 6 seconds.
