Shingo Shoji is a member of the Night Kids who drives a red Honda Civic SiR-II (EG-6). Shingo races dangerously&mdash;he will nudge his rival&#039;s car in order to make the other driver lose control. He doesn&#039;t find plain downhill races any fun, preferring to race under a mutual handicap he calls the Duct Tape Death Match. He detests Takeshi Nakazato because he believes that he is unfit to be leader of the Night Kids, a position that Shingo openly covets. In terms of racing ability, Shingo is the second best driver on the Night Kids team. He is also a childhood friend of Impact Blue&#039;s navigator, Sayuki.    Source: Wikipedia

Because of this, racing groups from all over the Gunma prefecture issue challenges to Takumi to see if he really has what it takes to be a road legend.

Following his victory over RedSuns leader Ryosuke Takahashi, AE86 driver Takumi Fujiwara is challenged by the Lancer EVO-based "Emperor," a group known for taking decals of racing teams they defeat, cutting them up and placing them on their cars like a fighter plane kill board. Takumi's undefeated streak is on the line as his AE86 is virtually no match against the more powerful and more agile four-wheel-drive EVOs of the Emperor team.
