![]() In a corner, Sakai makes a false brake, causing Keisuke to lift his foot from the pedal and making his turbo lag. Sakai starts the battle in the lead, maintaining his lead for a majority of the race, amazing Keisuke and onlookers with his speed and skills. Project D's next opponents were the students of the Todo School, with Keisuke being put up against Smiley Sakai. Project D had set course records for both the uphill and downhill of the Momiji Line. Although Kawai had more power on the straightaways, Keisuke's superior cornering lead to him gaining the lead and winning. One of the first teams they go up against is the Momiji Line based team Seven Star Leaf, with Keisuke being put up against Atsuro Kawai. After the battle ends early due to a crashed car in the road, the two vow to race each other again in the future.Īfter the dissolution of the RedSuns by Ryosuke, Keisuke joins his new team, Project D, as one of its "Double Aces" alongside Takumi Fujiwara. Keisuke later faced solo racer Wataru Akiyama on Akagi, initially turning Wataru away, he is forced to defend himself after he initiates an impromptu battle. Keisuke faced Seiji Iwaki of Emperor on Akagi, although this battle is shown only in Battle Stage.The battle was mostly Keisuke following Seiji until Keisuke performs a tactic similar to how Takumi did against Nakazato, feinting to the outside and overtaking on the inside (However, Keisuke did not use the gutter run.) Akagi's course record was shattered. Nakazato manages to maintain his lead throughout the race, however, through a combination of Nakazato's R32 losing grip in its tires and the rain that had began halfway into the race, Keisuke was able to overtake on the outside. Weeks later, after Ryosuke's defeat against Takumi, the RedSuns make their way out to Myogi for the battle. The two of them decide to have a rematch when the RedSuns head to Myogi. With Keisuke embarrassed and the RedSuns' plans halted, Ryosuke plans to battle the Eight-Six himself in order to reclaim their honor.īefore the battle between Ryosuke and Takumi, Keisuke enters an impromptu battle with Takeshi Nakazato of the Myogi NightKids on Akina. Keisuke is then overtaken by Takumi when he performs a gutter run in the 5 consecutive hairpins near the end of the course. The race begins, and even though the Eight-Six is technically inferior to the FD, it manages to keep up with him throughout the whole course, falling behind on the straightaways but catching up again in the corners. This car is revealed to be the Eight-Six that had beaten Keisuke, driven by Takumi Fujiwara, and not his father Bunta, like Iketani had previously believed. On the night of the SpeedStars battle, Keisuke is originally set up to go against Kenji, due to Iketani being injured, however this race is delayed due to a traffic car heading up the mountain. Keisuke talks to Koichiro Iketani at the gas station he works at, asking him to pass on a challenge to the "Phantom Eight-Six". ![]() ![]() Keisuke vows revenge against the Eight-Six, spending the days up until the battle with the SpeedStars searching for the car on Akina. The two engage in an impromptu battle with the Eight-Six performing a perfect Inertia Drift, shocking Keisuke and causing him to spin out. Despite this, Ryosuke wishes for Keisuke to race, as he would easily be able to set a record that the locals will be unable to beat for years.ĭeciding to head home to Akagi, Keisuke is confronted on his way down Akina by a Panda coloured AE86. Ryosuke notes that even though the SpeedStars have some decent racers, even some of the worse racers in the RedSuns would be able to beat them. ![]() Akina, the RedSuns challenge the local team, the Akina SpeedStars, to a battle. Keisuke became the second fastest racer of the RedSuns with his RX-7 FD3S, only being beat by his brother and his RX-7 FC3S. The RedSuns proved themselves as the fastest team on Akagi, aiming to become the fastest racers in all of Gunma, and later, the whole of the Kanto plain. Originally part of a bōsōzoku gang, Keisuke Takahashi left that life behind to join his brother Ryosuke's racing team: the Akagi RedSuns. ![]()
