Tokyo Extreme Racer (Shutokou Highway Battle) on Sega’s Dreamcast. Those were the days (and nights).

Word! I got unbelievably far in that game with an AE86 by having to block and run the competition into things in pretty much every race. Hey.. winning is winning.

Yeah - I’m honestly not sure that there was any other way to win that race. 

You just had to get the R34 fully maxed out, then ram him into a wall at the start of a long straight, then reach top speed before he caught up. At least that’s how I did it on the Dreamcast version.

Steering wheel lock just needs a fuse pulled. CSC can be avoided/delayed with higher temp fluid. Stock oil cooling isn’t an issue for street driving and if you’re tracking, an oil cooler is your first mod anyway.

Every car has failure points. The platform is almost 20 years old, the VQ is bulletproof, and consumables

Really? I’ve owned 3. In between I owned a 12 wrx hatch I bought and happily took a $7k loss on it to get back in a G37. WRX was complete plastic and felt flimsy above 80 and in the corners.

a couple of Popeye’s around me were recently permanently closed for health code violations

I’ll always love that car in a “so bad it’s good” sorta way.

Good thing this has 6?

Three is the correct number of spokes.

You sir, get a star for that.

Make. It. Stop.

You will never hear me argue about Lewis’s incredible talent, ability, and success as he is truly one of the sports greatest.

Tow points, jack points, winch points, and damage protection for low energy impacts (like leaning into a tree)

never played the games.. but love the lore.
