Takumi Fujiwara spends a lot of time behind the wheel. His tofu delivery job sends him racing down the treacherous roads of Mount Akina, and without even realizing it, Takumi has mastered racing techniques that take most drivers a lifetime to learn. Of course, none of his friends realize this. They’re all too busy watching the Akina Speed Stars, the local street racing team. When the legendary Red Suns show up to challenge the Speed Stars, the rival team obsesses over a phantom car, the Trueno Eight-Six, seen racing through the mountain roads. Who is the driver, and will they take on the dangerous challenge?
Remember me? Relive Takumi Fujiwara's journey from tofu delivery boy to street-racing legend in an all-new, large-sized, 2-in-1 print edition of the series that made Japanese street racing into a worldwide phenomenon.

Will the Akagi Red Suns burn brightest? After two white-knuckle races against Takeshi Nakazato and Shingo Shoji of the Myogi Night Kids, Takumi is faced with a challenge from none other than the "White Comet"--Ryosuke Takahashi. Ryosuke has been observing Takumi's extraordinary driving skills and fine-tuning his Mazda FC3S RX-7 to face Takumi's Trueno Eight-Six. Will pure instinct be enough to overcome theoretical prowess? Moreover, a challenge is starting to brew beyond Mount Akina, on twisty roads in the Usui Pass that Takumi has never drifted on before. And will this challenge prove that Takumi is just a regular driver on unfamiliar roads?
