Male Car: Honda Civic Type R EK9 (Late Model) (Yellow) Team: Todo School A student of the Todo School and their downhill representative. He excels at braking, applying the brakes at the perfect timing during every cornering sequence. However, he lost to Takumi Fujiwara due to putting too much strain on his tires. His skills are sharp enough to genuinely intimidate Takumi. "I can't stand that flashy, superficial attitude... I want to show those guys that there are plenty of people out there who are truly fast."

Female Car: Mazda RX-7 Type R (FD3S) (Black) Team: Saitama Northwest Area Alliance Her skills are solid, but she lost to her first love, Keisuke Takahashi, after a mistake in her accelerator work during the battle against Project D. She has yandere tendencies and takes the liberty of calling Keisuke "Darling." "I don't have anyone but my Darling...!!"

Male Car: Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 (Black) Team: Myogi NightKids A highly skilled GT-R driver on public roads, but he frequently causes accidents requiring bodywork repairs when things get serious. In his battle against Keisuke, he was overtaken on a corner during a limit-pushing uphill climb. In his fight against Takumi, the weight of his car proved to be his downfall, leading to a crash. "The emblem on the rear side stands for the R of the Undefeated Legend!"

Female Car: Nissan SilEighty (Impact Blue) Team: Impact Blue Famous alongside her partner Sayuki for being the fastest on Usui. Known as the fastest woman on the Usui Pass. She lost to Takumi after spinning out during their battle. She also easily defeated the Emperor's scouts and the Altezza duo. "I won't leave any regrets. I'm betting it all on my pride as the fastest on Usui Pass!"

Male Car: Nissan S14 Silvia (Early Model) (Orange) Team: Akagi RedSuns (later Project D) The number three of the famous RedSuns led by the Takahashi brothers, and his skills are genuine. He prefers racing in the rain. He fought Takumi on the downhill at Myogi but was easily pulled away. He is Keisuke Takahashi's disciple. "As long as it rains, my Q's can pull away from even turbo cars!"

Male Car: Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 (Metallic Black) Team: None Due to a past grudge involving a woman and Ryosuke Takahashi, the heroine Kaori died. To make Ryosuke realize it was their shared responsibility, he tries to force Ryosuke into a crash at Hakone. Ultimately, the weight of his car works against him, and he is saved by Ryosuke and Ryuji Ikeda, who was spectating. "Kaori's suicide... is the responsibility of both of us!! Don't you forget it, Ryosuke... I won't allow you to forget!!!"

Male Car: Mazda NA Roadster (Red) Team: Seven Star Leaf The fastest downhill racer on Tochigi's Momiji Line. He borrowed money from his girlfriend for his car to challenge the battle. However, Takumi performed a shortcut over a gutter without a lid during the race; when Tohru tried to mimic the move after being overtaken, he crashed. "It doesn't have to be a full-tune engine... being a street racer is a matter of heart, isn't it?"

Male Car: Nissan S15 Silvia (Blue) Team: Spiral Zero The highly provocative number two of the team, following Ryuji Ikeda. During the battle against Project D, he raced Takumi on the downhill at Nanamagari. Just as he thought he had cornered Takumi using his car's superior performance, he was effortlessly left behind at the consecutive hairpins due to the gap in their techniques. "I'll just keep the pressure on from behind and bully him... following is definitely the winning strategy."

Male Car: Honda S2000 (Blue) Team: Purple Shadow He managed to leave Takumi behind on the Tsukuba line, but lost after spinning out due to falling ill mid-race. His skills are superior to those of Project D. "No matter how much technique you acquire, if you think 'this is enough,' it becomes difficult to even maintain that state." "Unless you are constantly looking up and continuing to put in effort, you cannot transition to a higher level of skill." "I believe that is what it means to 'master the way.'"

Male Car: Toyota AE86 Levin (White) Team: None (later Saitama Northwest Area Alliance) He fought Takumi at Shomaru Pass in the same model 86 but lost. Later, he fought Keisuke in the Project D battle but lost after losing concentration and spinning out. "The fastest guy on the pass is the coolest. You're pretty slick, man...!!" "Isn't it a better drama if the guy who's broke but works hard wins?! It's no fun if I'm the one losing!"
