I'm going there quickly
So don't worry anymore
To save you, because I love you
A mysterious uneasiness
An SOS from you
I kept feeling it since last night
A sudden storm is blocking your way
I saw a visual of it
Lover or miracles
You can't look down on it. Even time would...
...bring new waves
I'm going there right now
So just stay there
Always keep the dream you have
You can do it
I'm going there quickly
So don't worry anymore
To save you, because I love you
Sugo Asurada, a racing team that's aiming for the World Grand Prix...
...took up the challenge at the Fujioka Qualifier...
...with their newly developed Cyber Formula machine, the Asurada GSX.
Their driver is 14 year old, Hayato Kazami...
...who has no experience in Cyber Formula racing.
Hayato showed amazing technique, by using his motorcycle racing experience...
...at a critical moment in the race.
He barely passed the time trials by finishing in last place.
However, F-3 champion, Naoki Shinjyo demonstrated his genius driving skill...
...during his debut Cyber Formula race, by taking the pole position.
He showed his outstanding abilities there, as everyone had expected.
And now...
I can't believe it.
This place will become a battlefield in a few hours.
Good morning, boy.
Did you come here to feel the morning winds on the day of the race?
Me too, I always wake up early on the day of the race.
You're on the Aoi team.
I saw the Asurada GSX.
That machine seems to have immeasurable possibilities.
But unfortunately, the driver is...
The driver is what?
I think your skill can't even pull out 1/100 of the Asurada's full potential.
It seems more likely that the Asurada helped your driving.
That's what I think so far.
W...wait a minute!
I think Naoki Shinjyo will make up realize the severe difference...
...between genius and ordinary.
The Final Race of the Fujioka Grand Prix
The Final Race of the Fujioka Grand Prix. The Final Race of the Fujioka Grand Prix
Hello to all motor sports fans in Japan.
The time to start the final race of the Fujioka Qualifier is getting close.
Loaded with the super technology of the navigation cyber system...
...these dream racing machines are set for a battle-royal.
The top three teams who win the Fujioka Qualifier...
...will earn the right to attend the All Japan Grand Prix.
This is the heated final race that puts all their ambitions on the line.
Standing on the track is the #1 candidate to win the championship...
...Naoki Shinjyo.
Asuka, how's the temperature?!
18 degrees!
He humidity?!
48 percent!
Miki! Make the settings stiff!
OK!
Pei! How's the rear wing?
Perfect!
Shinsuke, how's the cyber system running?
No problems.
It's very energetic.
I have a winning feeling today. It's just the intuition of a mechanic.
I'm also shaking with excitement.
We're always exhilarated before a race.
Now the signal for the machines to take formation has started!
I glorious passport to the All Japan Grand Prix...
...will go to the top three teams.
Which team will actually get it?
The excitement is building up here at the Fujioka Circuit!
Nobody's gonna tell me that Asurada helped me win!
How's it going?
Asurada calculated the chances of Hayato finishing the race...
...as only 7 percent.
7 percent.
Yes, but I understand.
It's one and a half-hour long race with maximum forces of 4.5 G's.
It's impossible for a beginner to complete the race.
Now, the 24 machines are lined up on the grid.
The distance for one lap is 8.398 kilometers , with a total of 44 laps.
Who will survive this long and harsh battle?
The green flag is waved. The red signal is on.
And now... it's blue!
The pole position car, Superion, has jumped out!
It immediately grabs the first corner!
I got them beat!
Uh-oh!
The very last car, #24, the Asurada, already seems to be having trouble.
Hayato.
Wha...what's going on?
Don't panic. You shifted up too early. Turn up the engine.
I know!
It's too quick. Shift down.
Damn it! I wasn't expecting this.
Damn you!
The Asurada is struggling. Although, I can't blame it.
The driver is only 14 years old and this is his first race.
What is it?
It's just a burden on the course.
Hayato is doing worse than in the trial race.
He's just trying too hard!
Steer back into position. The rear body is drifting.
I know! Just be quiet for a while!
You're great!
This is funny.
It's just like a circus.
Cool down Hayato!
Stupid idiot!
Hayato, don't make a fuss all by yourself!
This is everybody's race, including Asurada, driver and the mechanics.
Everybody's race.
Left spoon 40 R. Shift down.
I got it!
The Superion is on top now.
It's already entered the second lap.
The Raikana and Rames are both following it tightly.
Don't underestimate me, Shinjyo!
I won't let you go!
Ah, the Rames is turning into the inner track!
No good! It's spinning! He's quickly out of the race!
I'm not the same as him.
Both cars have gone into the backstretch and are now entering...
...Illusion Straight, where the high speed changes the scenery into an illusion.
Do you really want to see the illusion that much?
There it goes! 423 kilometers!
It...it can't be! What's the maximum speed of his car?
Everybody is no longer following him.
Shinjyo has been running ahead of everybody since the opening lap.
I guess the winner has already been decided.
Heh, I'll just keep this up.
As expected, the Superion has been setting fastest lap time with every lap.
Now it's going into the ninth lap.
In last place are Spirit and Asurada, the car which had trouble at the start line.
These 2 cars have been left out of the race.
I can get out from last place if I pass that.
Just wait for the chance.
Breaking mistake. Go.
I won't let a kid beat me!
He's blocking the way! Watch out!
That's mean! How can he do that?!
He's being stubborn!
Asurada, are you just warming up over there?
In the top car, Shinjyo has already caught up with the Asurada...
...which is one lap behind.
Get out! You're in my way!
Damn it!
Hayato, don't give up!
What's he thinking?
Everybody knows that a car, 1 lap behind, gives the course to the top car.
I don't have time to deal with you jerks!
You bastard!
Damn it!
Future Grand Prix Cyber Formula
What a surprise!
The Asurada, Spirit, and Superion all ran off the course, together!
Shinjyo!
I can't turn on the engine!
Is the Asurada out of the race?
Top leader Shinjyo is also not moving. Is he out of the race, too?!
This is stupid.
Asurada, please help me!
That is my purpose.
Sub-battery system on. Engine will turn on in 2 seconds.
I got it.
Please turn on!
Now, select the #1 switch to on.
This is amazing! The Asurada came back!
He did it!
Hayato, this is incredible!
Harry up! It's time for us to work!
Hayato, get into the pit!
Can Shinjyo get out?
Damn it!
The Raikana has now become top car during these events.
The other machines are also passing the Superion, one by one.
And the Asurada has entered the pit.
I'll show you what professional skill is, Hayato.
Go!
Hang on Hayato!
Go! Go!
The Superion has entered the pit!
It takes a little more time to adjust the front suspension.
Please do it quickly.
I can't lose the victory because of this kind of a mistake.
The last place car, Asurada, just passed the control line.
Now Shinjyo's Superion has fallen into last place.
We still have a chance.
Everybody's now paying attention to Shinjyo.
Can he get out of this bad situation?
He starts out forcefully!
Superion is approaching the Asurada!
I don't have time to play with you!
I won't let you pass me, ever!
The Superion has moved out from the slipstream!
Now it's lined up with the Asurada.
Hayato, stop it!
You don't have the ability to take the maximum speed G-forces, yet.
The Asurada won't give up! It's still accelerating!
Now the Asurada and Superion are both driving at 445 kilometers per hour!
They are reaching their top speeds and entering the deadly 600 R!
I'll get this!
They're taking an incredible 4.5 side-G's all over their bodies!
This is assuredly called a "death drive"!
Got to hold on!
Asurada, can you input the data of Superion's course line?
I'll follow him with the same course.
You need the same physical strength and technique that Sinjyo has for that.
I can't beat him if I don't do it!
Hurry up!
Let's try it.
Let's go!
You are doing great, Hayato!
Hayato, hang on!
Asurada, how is it coming?
OK. This data is well worth inputting.
Can you follow along with me?
This takes tremendous skill of driving! Can I follow him to the finish like this?
Fujioka Qualifier
The car that's following Shinjyo's machine so tightly is pretty good!
Who is it?
The Asurada's racer, who is following Naoki Shinjyo tightly, is Hayato Kazami.
He's only 14, but since he's a substitute racer, we don't have any data on him.
Hayato Kazami?
Hey, find out something about him!
Hayato!
The Superion and Asurada have completely overtaken the other cars.
Both have leaped into tenth place with only 9 more laps to go.
At 14 years old...
...Hayato Kazami has marvelous concentration, skill and tenacity.
Shinjyo's Superion has finally caught up to the top group, and is now in range.
Hayato, what's wrong?!
Hayato, what's going on! Answer me!
He is about to faint!
That doesn't surprise me. He's been fighting with tremendous G's.
This is his limit.
Hayato.
Hyato, what are you doing?
Hayato, hang on!
I have to drive.
The Superion has finally caught up with the Raikana!
But it's now letting the Superion pass!
Uh-oh! The Rabam is in trouble and is out of the race!
Now amazingly, the Asurada has moved up into fifth place!
Hayato!
One more lap!
If I could pass those two cars...
If he can pass...
...it's third place.
Now it's the final lap!
I can't pass.
This one hour and forty minute battle is finally getting to the climax.
They're at the last high speed corner! It's the deadly 600 R!
The Asurada is falling behind.
Hyato!
Hayato!
Oh-no! Emilio is...
Breaking mistake. 0.26 second loss.
Can I go?!
Possibility of success is 27.8 percent. You have to make your own judgement.
The Asurada has lunged out! It's trying to overtake!
Which one will get the checkered flag?! Raikana or Superion?!
Superion!
In first place is Superion! Second place is Raikana!
Who will take third place, Auval or Asurada?!
They crossed the finish at the same time! Which one got third place?!
We're waiting for who won third place! The third place goes to...
Here it is! Asurada wins with just a 0.002 second difference!
-We did it! We did it! -We got third place!
What happened to the Asurada?
It spun into the sand trap right after he crossed the finish line.
Hayato!
Congratulations on your victory, Shinjyo.
Although, I had some awkward situations.
Because of those situations, it seems like you gave the boy some courage.
Hayato!
The reason a human's eyes...
...are not on their back is...
...because we live facing forward
Because we have a mission...
...believe each other
When I stop working...
...and look up at the blue sky...
...believe each other
Your smile becomes my emotional support
Because there are hard times now...
...tomorrow will shine bright
So, I'm not going to regret...
... the goal I had chosen
Now run the wind
Someday we're winners
