How sick would it be if in O7 he brings out the 20b N/A yellow Aspara Drink yellow Widebody FD JGTC beast? Or the Red 20b (the Porsche kit) Super G(reddy) 7.

yeah, they have that pale green/yellow 20b FD. It is a track car though, and IIRC, runs about the same time as the blue FD around tsukuba.

They weigh about the same, share the same 50/50 distribution. For a car that shares the same abilities and less hp keeping up with an FD, i'd say it has better handling and an amazing driver.

Haha, your joking right? Maybe the highway yes but not the circuit. Ive never even heard of a supra having a record for one given time at Tsukuba, have you?

Would you ask for a rematch if you were in a road race and missed a gear? I didn't think so....

I think they should have Potatoe sack races in a round robin style on consecutive saturdays till a winner is announced.

the amuse s2k also has a built 2.3L engine.

at the end they said the amemiya fd was faster, but during the "sudden death" the tires lost some traction. they said both the s2k and fd had great braking, cornering, and traction. it all comes down to power at that point (which is why the fd was a bit faster). so thats why they decided to give the trophy to both amuse and re amemiya.

i have this volume of hot version on its way to me from japan, cant wait to watch it on my new 55'' 1080p tv

No,I want a rematch because it was a tie.
