Takumi Fujiwara receives a formal challenge from Ryousuke Takahashi, the head of the Akagi Red Suns, after spending the summer racing against some of Gunma's greatest racers. Despite his unwillingness to participate in the sport, Takumi can't help but be delighted to face the former "White Comet of Akagi." In preparation for the clash, Ryousuke downgrades his vehicle, jeopardizing his dignity and racing career. Will Takumi and his panda-colored Toyota AE86 be able to surpass Ryousuke's Mazda RX-7 FC for the title of fastest racer in Gunma?
