## Plot[edit]

Ryo Sawada, the main protagonist of the series began racing after his graduation. Ryo lives with his father, Takashi Sawada, since Ryo's parents were divorced when he was young. Ryo bought a MND-Ntr (Nissan Silvia S15) to start his racing career, alongside Chang and his Levia (Subaru Impreza WRX STI GRB), also with a new love interest, Yuu and her F/Drake (Mazda RX-7 FD3S).

As Ryo races, he encounters Kamisaka, known as the Silver Dragon, Fei Long known as the Wyvern, and other characters such as Daimon, Rio, Bogarde, Itsuki, Urasawa, Cheimin, Tiger etc.

When Ryo grew up in excitement in racing, he began to run out of cash, so he challenges Kimura, a Trading Company Manager who gives any parts to racers who defeated him, but if they lose, they could never race again. However, Ryo is hired after defeating Kimura, but Ryo still feels flustered, as in the next race, Yuu challenged Ryo and Chang to a race. Ryo and Yuu started a Love Relationship since that race.

At a parking lot, Ryo saw Yuu looking a little depressed, telling Ryo about Rio, Yuu's friend whose boyfriend died in a racing accident. Ryo challenges Rio to a race to tell her that Racing should be fun, and Rio began to feel another thing after the race. The next day, Daimon (a.k.a. the Big Magnum), a fierce racer of the Red Lotuses Racing Team challenges Ryo and Yuu to a race. After having defeated Daimon, Ryo is told by Daimon to challenge Kamisaka the Silver Dragon, but at the race, Ryo is losing and his car crashed. Afterwards, Kamisaka began to realize that Ryo is Takashi's son, which gets to Ryo's mind.

Ryo and his friends went to Tokyo to race again and face the Silver Dragon. In order to defeat Kamisaka, Ryo races against Urasawa the Emperor and Itsuki the Natural Born Kid. Ryo defeats Kamisaka and Kamisaka finally realized that Ryo is Takashi's son. As everyone watches the race, Fei Long the Wyvern and his APS-ri (Nissan GT-R R35) chased the two racers, and Kamisaka is defeated, so Ryo defeats Fei Long afterwards.

Ryo however was not satisfied, and in the aftermath, his MND-Ntr was stolen, as well as Kamisaka's car, so the gang went to china, while Kamisaka visits Takashi, Ryo's father for a talk. As the group arrived in China, Urasawa arrived and gave Ryo a GD-rc (Hennessey Venom GT or Lotus Exige) to race against Bogarde from USA. The winner gets information from a Chinese Supermodel Cheimin all about Fei Long. Somehow, Chang met his brother Xun to race him and Ryo, and Cheimin met her brother Fang to race. After that, a major racing event of Japan vs China began, starting with Cheimin and Yuu participating in a race.

The event continues to Beijing, where Ryo, Chang, and the rest of the crew met other racers like Tsao, Tiger, Chen, Liu, and Lee. The event also continues back at Osaka and Tokyo, where Ryo and Yuu have another race, Kimura gets challenged by Daimon, Ryo races against a newly revived Rio, and Bogarde challenges Both Rio, and Yuu in order to get love from them. He failed, and at this point, Yuu still loves Ryo, although when Cheimin arrives at Tokyo, she will become closer to Ryo, and Rio and Daimon will probably fell in love at the end. In some of the races, Kamisaka returns with his GR022 (Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X).

The event soon comes to an end when Chang also challenges racers as he grew up racing like Ryo, Cheimin and Fang reunite as siblings, and Ryo aims to race Fei Long again, by racing his own father at first. As Ryo and Fei Long developed more racing experience, the two decided to have another race. At the final race, Ryo saw the full reincarnation of his rival, Fei Long, who now realized that Racing should be fun, and the duo finally made their race once and for all.
