Is gripping truly king in racing? That is what Takeshi Nakazoto of the Myogi Night Kids wants to prove with his GT-R against Takumi Fujiwara’s specially tuned Trueno Eight-Six.

This omnibus edition includes volumes 3 and 4.

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? Contains a new translation of Initial D Vol. 5-6.
