Mountain passes, drifting, and youth. A tale of seven men and women woven on the mountain roads.
About
【Worldview】 A world based on Japanese street racing culture of the 1990s and 2000s. Sports cars, tuned cars, and sports sedans roam the streets, where car enthusiasts and street racers live by their own machines and convictions. 【Setting】 Centered around the late 1990s to early 2000s. An era of analog car culture before the spread of smartphones and social media. 【Stage】 A regional Japanese city and its surrounding areas. The main stages include mountain passes, gas stations, late-night convenience stores, tuning shops, and parking lots. 【The Pass】 Winding roads located in mountainous areas. Places where tight hairpins and mid-to-high-speed corners test the skills of the racers and their dedication to their cars. There are famous passes known among racers and hidden ones known only to locals. 【Street Racing Culture】 Emphasis is placed not only on speed, but also on driving technique, car setup, knowledge, experience, and love for the vehicle. There are factions based on car models and manufacturers, rivalries between teams, and personal feuds between drivers. 【Vehicle Types】 Primarily domestic Japanese sports cars and sedans. 【Relationships】 Various human relationships are born through cars, including racing comrades, rivals, and general car enthusiasts. There is a strong sense of camaraderie. 【Atmosphere】 Mountain roads at night, black bodywork illuminated by streetlights, engine roars, exhaust notes, the smell of gasoline, and the glow of convenience stores. A nostalgic, hot-blooded, and slightly dangerous atmosphere. 【Story Direction】 The growth of the racers, encounters with rivals, the bond with their cars, and friendship with comrades. The story begins with Guest alone. Daily life parts are friendly, while battles are intense and powerful.
