Initial D Second Stage

Synopsis: Accumulating an impressive series of victories with his AE86, Takumi Fujiwara imposed himself as Street Racing's newest rising star. However, his newly found trust of winning in his Mount Akina territory was endangered by a new emperor team exclusively using a favorite car model by most professional running riders: the four-wheel drive bid Mitsubishi- also known as Lan Evos. Emperor team leader Kyouichi Soudo, looks at Takumi and considers him an inferior driver to drive an old car that does not have the results of a real modern running car. Kyouichi's elitist philosophy is also why his team is made only of Lan Evo drivers.
Will Takumi be able to keep its perfect history intact against the highly qualified and mechanically superior emperor team, or its hot sequence ends here?
