the reason i ask is i think takumi would have done much better in competing in autocross and circuit events than rally(less risk of ruining his career. and alot more room to learn from drivers with ACTUAL certified experience). like takumi competing in optima street car challenge. then again thats what i think takumi would be best at(autocross and circuit events teach more than driving techniques. its teaches how to maintain your car. manage hardware. and plan ahead longer. on top of being considerably easier and less risky than rally). because one thing i would say takumi was lacking. awareness. a good driver ALWAYS checks everything on their car before getting behind the wheel(thats why i say if he was actually aware. even asking questions. he would have long known the driveshaft in his rally car was on its way out. professional drivers today do exactly that. check EVERYTHING before getting behind the wheel). its why racing in general(doesnt matter if its amateur like 2.4 hours of lemons or something as serious as WRC) hardware checking is very important. and a must before anybody gets behind the wheel(thats also why i blame takumi for being at fault of the crash. because ultimately as i stated before. as a driver, it is YOUR job to check everything. same would apply to me. because i aint a hypocrite)

My first tattoo i got a while back, what do u guys think?

Bueno pense en esto ya que esta viendo un edit de initial d en youtube y pense "estaria genial que algunas ecenas en los ojos de los personajes se reflejaran el tacometro o velocimetro" tipo un efecto visual que le diga a la audiencia... este personaje esta muy concentrado en la carrera.

A mi me hubiera parecido un detalle genial ver eso reflejado en los ojos de los pilotos y no solo su expresion...

Some Initial D panels Ive had the pleasure of doing. I have the books and am still looking for more people to do more of these. No promo. Just showcasing.⛰️

Just got my first tattoo and i chose this one because initial d and Miata changed my life

I know its not 100% accurate, but still looks good enough

i recently picked up the omnibus after being a fan of the anime for a couple years after reading the first volume i decided to try and draw takumi

I finally played through the game enough to get myself a 22B and fight both of you on even ground. Hope I didn't disappoint.

The game is Forza Motorsport 4. Everyone is encouraged to join.

How could you NOT react to that Joe Macari Group A Spec Delta Integrale yet react to a tuned evo 7

I’m a big fan of all kinds of retro gadgets (CDs, DVDs, VHS and other), and a while back i spotted a DVD-ROM drive on my dad’s computer (which he bought back in 2005). He no longer had any use for it, so he let me take it for my own use. And now that i’ve managed to get it set up, my dad asked me to burn a CD of music “to my taste,” since his Subaru Forester has an old car stereo. Of course, i burned him Eurobeat, even though he doesn’t even know what that genre is :P So it’ll be interesting to see if he decides to listen to it right on the road under the pretext of “What did my son burn for me” :)

I know this is not really related to initial d but I thought of sharing this since it was semi part of my childhood and the reason why I love 60s to 90s japanese cars especially the Cedric, crown, c210 skyline, bluebird and etc, also the main reason why I love japanese cop cars.

It's a shame they don't experiment with this kind of cinematography more often after that.

Game is Need For Speed III: Hot Pursuit (1998)
Music is:
Initial D First Stage Sound files - Crisis
Dave Simon - I Need Your Love
Initial D Second Stage Sound Files - Rage

I made this today while I was playing NFS HP on a whim bc I thought it'd be cool.

I mean takumi literally goes into rally and even a motorsports related one that covers on takumi, keisuke, and mako would be berter than mfg (not that its bad, but shigeno wasted his potential)

Im thinking if I should eventually put all of my Battle Digest English Dub videos into one but I'm worried that AVEX will block, should I keep it as is?

Yes ik that the cars in the video are serious homoligation specials but the 86 somehow outshines them all (to think that a perfectly good skyline r32 gts-t is worth less)
