Episode Eighteen (Clip Three)

----('Night of Fire' starts playing)----

The rain started pouring on the course. Water was covering Ryoichi's windshield as he frown in frustration.

"Rain. Why can't you wait until the end of the race till you fall?!" He mumbled angrily. "My tyres are exhausted from all that braking and I still got a few more hairpins to go." He thought to himself as he slammed the brakes into another hairpin. The calipers screamed as it held the brake disc tightly.

Ryoichi turned his car into the hairpin. Gripping the whole way as he placed his foot in the throttle upon exit. The Agera Rs V8 screaming away.

The next hairpin came, the Yakuza heir counter steered. The Agera R turning a little off Ryoichi's preferred line due to the tyres wearing off.

"He he he, but that Skyline is definitely way at the back if me. All I have to is clear these annoying hairpins and then I'll be........."

The repeatedly flashes on Ryoichi's rear view mirror shock his thoughts halfway.

"No! It can't be!!" Ryoichi cried as he glanced at his side view mirrors and saw the R34s powerful headlights tailgating behind. 

"WHAT THE HELL!!" Ryoichi yelled as he widen his eyes. "IMPOSSIBLE! I'M DRIVING A FREAKING HYPERCAR HERE FOR GODSAKE!!!"

He furiously pushed the gas and speeded away. But then he needed to brake a few seconds later to clear a hairpin.

JL: *sharpen his eyes*

(Beat drops)

The dark blue hair downshifted and flicked the steering wheel. He then pulled the handbrake and stepped on the gas so hard to slide his R34 sideways out of the corner and perfectly executing a ultra drift with water skidding out from his rear tyres.

"Crap!!" Ryoichi sneered as the R34 was closing in. He then attacked another corner by entering from the inside and then exiting from the outside line, trying desperately to shake his GT-R opponent as they went downhill.

JL continued to attack the corners with great entry and exit speed. The Skyline GT-R braked drifted into a corner and recovered. Then a tight hairpin was closing in. JL stepped on the brake, cutting his speed and then yanking the E-brakes as he attacked the corner drifting, he was successfully able to chew at the bright red Koenigsegg's bumper.

"Damn, the rain isn't making things any better for me either. I can slide uncontrollably at any time due to these wet conditions." The Yakuza heir thought as his Koenigsegg did a little wheelspin upon exiting a curve due to the wet surface of the road. "But in just one more corner and I'm done with this stupid section and onto high speed one!! That's where I'll dominate you R34!!!"

The Koenigsegg slowed and took off around the last hairpin. Zooming off into the straights. Behind the R34 braked as it's anti lag system roared and performed an arc drift around the hairpin.

JL stomped the gas pedal as soon as he came out of the corner behind the Agera R. The R34 souring behind it. 

"The high speed section started!" JL exclaimed in his thoughts. "Come on Dax, let's win this!!!"

"Yeah!!" The R34 agreed as it accelerated after a roar of the misfiring system. Both cars flew down the mountain at breakneck speeds as the rainwater fell on them. 

Ryoichi glanced at his rear view mirror. "Is that all the so called 'Godzilla' has got?! HERE'S HOW A REAL PERFORMANCE CAR TEAR DOWN THESE STRAIGHTS!!!"

The candy red Koenigsegg Agera R was going at speeds JL had never seen. Ryoichi was constantly pressing the gas at it's full potential as the pistons of the Swedish engine pounded hard back and forth as Yoshi raged out. Soaring down the mountain at a shocking speed of 330km/h!! JL watched and struggled to stay ahead as the hypercar began to leave his GT-R behind.

But due to that quick paced straight. Ryoichi reached the next hairpin in only a matter of seconds. He braked causing more stress to be applied to his front tyres and cleared the corner, grunting his teeth as the Agera R understeered and was millimeters away from the guardrail.

JL entered the corner by executing another feint drift. Steering towards the outside before throwing his grip into the normal corning direction and pressing the gas. The GT-R came out of the corner 5 seconds faster than the Agera R and was closing in.

The crowd stationed behind the guardrail of the corner widen their eyes and dropped their jaws after both racers past the hairpin at such a speed as the rain poured down on them.

"That Koenigsegg is going way beyond it's normal corning speed. Ryoichi must be insane to drive at deadly speeds like that!!" A crowd member wailed, having to see Ryoichi race before.

"Yeah, but his opponent in that Skyline is still sticking behind his bumper like superglue! I'm surprised that he could still keep up with Ryoichi after that first straight which he always gains a huge lead from his opponents." Another member of the crowd observed and shared his thoughts.

"Are you kidding?! Do you know who Ryoichi is up against?! That's Ng Jiang Lin from The Order of Elements!!" A female spectator wailed as the cars disappeared into another corner.

After the next hairpin, Ryoichi floored it on the second longest straight of the course. Using it to his advantage to gain a lead from the GT-R.

"Dang, if he keeps pushing his car like that, then either his tyres would stall out and he'll be done for." JL thought as he saw the Koenigsegg pulling away from his wet windshield.

"But the racer's kick I'm having right now by chasing this Agera R is great! I haven't felt this adrenaline rush for a long time!!" He then clutched and switched to fourth gear immediately.

"I'm at KILLER SPEEDS!! So how in the world is he still behind me?!" Ryoichi wailed as the two front headlights of the GT-R never left his rear view mirror since the consecutive hairpins. 

The anger boiled inside him. Much like how his father, the Yakuza mob boss would when he enrage.

"THAT'S IT!!!" Ryoichi yelled furiously. "I'M GONNA BEAT YOU OR I'LL DIE TRYING!!!!" The Yakuza heir then pushed in all his Agera R could take to the max.

His mind only had one goal. That is to win, no matter what.

"HOLY CRAP!" JL exclaimed, seeing Yoshi rage.

"I can't let this keep up," JL told himself. "I have to be in the lead to stop the crazy dude from accelerating any further. It's for his own good!"

The two cars passed a group of spectators behind the guardrail, who were in shock of how fast the cars flew past them in front.

"Amazing, I think their going faster than that bright yellow FD and that red 350Z that battled here many years ago." A crowd member cried.

"Yeah! They're going at madman speeds!!!"

JL clutched and shifted into his last gear as the exhaust backfires and turbo whistles, pushing all his 450 horses into his four wheels. The Z-Tuned Skyline was closing the gap. His NISMO racing tyres, spinning furiously over the asphalt of the mountainous roads.

"Almost there......" JL mentally told himself.

The next hairpin came. A two lane U-bend left. Ryoichi tried to brake as late as possible and hogged the inside line not letting the R34 pass him.

The blue hair saw this but he went for the outside line at full throttle........

Ryoichi smiled gingerly. "Try to pass me now!! Even though this hairpin is big enough, I clearly have the better----"

"なん だと?! NAN DATO (WHAT THE HECK?!!!)" Ryoichi yelled in disbelief as he saw the GT-R passing him from the outside quickly.

JL dropped his right rear tyre on the gutter of the right bank of the curve and rode through it like a roller coaster all the way. He passed the Koenigsegg smoothly without any contact.

Ryoichi: "IT CAN'T BE!!!"

The R34 pulled away gaining the lead as it's misfiring system activates again before turning into another corner drifting.

"I can't believe what I'm seeing!!" A staff member, live streaming the scene wailed.

Louis and the team saw the R34 overtake the Agera R during the corner on the live stream. Zendrick was still shocked about the sudden turn of events, knowing his predictions have been blown to bits by just a change of climate.

"It's already over." The hoodie concluded. "We won."

Ryoichi widen his eyes in seeing the GT-R in front of him. "No! No! It can't be!!"

The R34s misfiring system roared once again. JL clutched and power shifted up a gear as he made a two second gap between them.

"He pulled a hell of a move there! Damn it! I let my guard down!!" Ryoichi sneered bitterly.

"But I still have a chance at beating this dude! This straight is were I'll change things with my high horsepower!!" He flicked the shift pedals and accelerated. Pushing his Koenigsegg beyond it's limits to chase the less powerful R34 on the straights.

But all of a sudden............

*EEEEEE!!!!*

His front tyres got caught in a puddle of water and slipped. The red Agera R began to spin uncontrollably.

Ryoichi stomped the brakes for the last desperate time and managed to stop his vehicle right before slamming into the guardrail.

"I lost......." He wailed at his own language as his Koenigsegg stopped in the middle of the road.

JL and his R34 continued to soared down the mountain at a high speed with it's blue aura of a shark emitting through the night.

"Yeah!!!" The blue hair celebrated as he raised his fist, punching the air from his opened window.
