183 00:16:24,300 --> 00:16:26,000 Y-Yes... 184 00:16:28,200 --> 00:016:32,000 How long has it been since we'd started driving on this road? 185 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,500 When he was entering primary school... 186 00:16:36,500 --> 00:16:39,000 Nearly ten years ago. 187 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:45,700 I was working at a hot spring in Hakone that could only be reached through the mountains. 188 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,800 So I drove up that pass every day, 189 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,500 taking Shinji along. 190 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:09,200 It's not surprising that Shinji has this road memorised so well. 191 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:10,700 I see. 192 00:17:12,500 --> 00:17:16,500 It's true that he had an exceptionally good memory, 193 00:17:16,500 --> 00:17:20,000 but he was not studying and his grades were not that good. 194 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:26,000 He had a high IQ, so it surprised his teacher too. 195 00:17:28,500 --> 00:17:33,000 It's likely, that his spatial cognitive ability is particularly high. 196 00:17:33,900 --> 00:17:37,800 When did Shinji-kun start handling the steering wheel on his own? 197 00:17:38,500 --> 00:17:39,000 Well... 198 00:17:39,700 --> 00:17:40,400 That is... 199 00:17:41,500 --> 00:17:43,800 When he wasn't very old. 200 00:17:44,500 --> 00:17:47,300 In fifth or sixth grade of primary school. 201 00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:48,400 Oh!? 202 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,500 Hey, you... 203 00:17:51,500 --> 00:17:53,500 Were you out of your mind? 204 00:17:54,500 --> 00:17:58,000 It was caused by his kindness. 205 00:17:59,100 --> 00:18:01,900 A single woman with her child... 206 00:18:01,900 --> 00:18:04,500 It was a time of never ceasing anxiety. 207 00:18:06,300 --> 00:18:11,900 He just couldn't watch me trying not to fall asleep while driving. 208 00:18:19,100 --> 00:18:25,000 I still clearly remember how surprising his handling was when he started driving for the first time. 209 00:18:30,700 --> 00:18:37,000 Since I was driving in the heavy traffic of Ohyasawa, he was only driving at night. 210 00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:40,500 I see. 211 00:18:41,100 --> 00:18:44,000 So this is the reason he became so fast on the downhill. 212 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:50,050 Now it has become clear what is supporting Shinji-kun's speed. 213 00:18:50,700 --> 00:18:54,000 He memorized the course like he was playing a game. 214 00:19:14,500 --> 00:19:20,500 That steering technique was born as the result of a hard repetition training, 215 00:19:20,500 --> 00:19:22,200 it's like an art. 216 00:19:23,700 --> 00:19:25,200 Why is he this fast? 217 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaking of taking it as a game, I remember something else too. 218 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,700 He was always handling the steering wheel with joy. 219 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:49,400 That was my late husband's treasured car. 220 00:19:52,500 --> 00:19:58,000 I was influenced by my husband who was a rally driver, hence I also have some knowledge regarding techniques. 221 00:020:00,500 --> 00:20:05,000 I have not given Shinji instructions, not even any sort of advice. 223 00:20:06,500 --> 00:20:09,300 His driving is completely self-taught, 224 00:20:09,300 --> 00:20:11,400 it is not supported by theories at all. 225 00:20:12,100 --> 00:20:13,000 A natural. 226 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,000 He must have been born with a gift. 227 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,200 I've always been watching him, so I realised... 228 00:20:21,100 --> 00:20:24,500 His basic principle of driving is not braking. 229 00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:26,000 Not braking? 230 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:33,500 To drive without unnecessary braking for as long as possible, that was a game for him. 231 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,100 Although as a driving technique it's nonsense, 232 00:20:39,100 --> 00:20:42,800 he was not aiming for speed at all, 233 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,500 but at not releasing the accelerator. 234 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,800 Using the momentum on the slope... 235 00:20:50,900 --> 00:20:55,500 With steering management only, he found a smooth line to follow. 236 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:05,000 When he was the one driving, I really slept well. 237 00:21:07,500 --> 00:21:08,600 We're home. 238 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:09,500 Mom! 239 00:21:10,500 --> 00:21:11,400 We're already home. 240 00:21:14,050 --> 00:21:15,000 Did you sleep well? 241 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,000 I was trying not to wake you up while driving. 242 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,500 I've made it again! 243 00:21:25,750 --> 00:21:27,100 He's so kind. 244 00:21:28,350 --> 00:21:31,300 Since you recently opened his eyes Hojo-san, 245 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,800 he's now able to rely on technique and theories for sure, 246 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,600 only his intuition of not braking isn't going to change. 247 00:21:42,300 --> 00:21:47,000 He's not a clumsy driver on Hakone indeed. 248 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:52,040 But the only reason for that is that he knows every corner of this road. 249 00:21:55,120 --> 00:22:00,300 It's only that his body remembers the highest speeds he can take them at. 250 00:22:01,410 --> 00:22:05,360 As a result he takes the countless corners one-by-one. 251 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:14,650 His understanding of the limits differs from what other drivers have. 252 00:22:21,700 --> 00:22:24,970 In that case there's no need to worry any more. 253 00:22:26,120 --> 00:22:29,480 Shinji-kun will do a great job like always. 254 00:22:30,650 --> 00:22:34,160 He has that special something that you just can't explain. 255 00:22:46,050 --> 00:22:48,200 When it comes to driving fast on the downhill, 256 00:22:48,850 --> 00:22:51,550 the engine's horse-power makes little difference. 257 00:22:52,290 --> 00:22:54,170 Keeping it simple, on the descending inclines 258 00:22:54,590 --> 00:22:58,200 a car with 100 hp will accelerate like one with 150 hp. 259 00:23:00,300 --> 00:23:05,280 And like that your opponent's 200 hp also becomes 300 hp. 260 00:23:05,790 --> 00:23:09,900 But that means nothing on the downhill. 261 00:23:10,810 --> 00:23:13,600 What's important is the balance between lightness and footwork. 262 00:23:14,380 --> 00:23:20,280 When it came to Fujiwara's consecutive victories on Akina, he covered for the powerlessness of the 86 and beat everything. 263 00:23:21,260 --> 00:23:24,180 Including my EG6 and your R32. 264 00:23:24,690 --> 00:23:30,020 Even the Takahashi brothers who were said to be the fastest in Gunma back then lost. 265 00:23:31,330 --> 00:23:33,560 But something is different this time. 266 00:23:34,260 --> 00:23:37,970 Back then Fujiwara always had an ace up his sleeve, 267 00:23:39,060 --> 00:23:43,530 but this time it seems to be in his opponent's hands. 268 00:23:44,350 --> 00:23:48,530 To think that the final race is a showdown between 86s... 269 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,770 What an ironic twist of fate. 270 00:23:59,330 --> 00:24:00,840 What about him? 271 00:24:01,790 --> 00:24:06,510 That brat from Sidewinder has a strong dangerous aura indeed, 272 00:24:07,310 --> 00:24:11,640 but Fujiwara has the piled up experience from last year that's helped him so far. 273 00:24:13,250 --> 00:24:14,990 There's something beyond theory. 274 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:21,080 He has a miraculous power to make an opening and break through in a cornered situation. 275 00:24:21,740 --> 00:24:23,440 Something like that exists. 276 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,740 The legend of Fujiwara Takumi isn't going to end here. 277 00:24:39,870 --> 00:24:40,720 Why is this? 278 00:24:44,370 --> 00:24:48,500 I can follow him in tight corners, but something is a bit different. 279 00:24:49,490 --> 00:24:51,410 It's an 86 like mine, so why? 280 00:24:58,020 --> 00:24:59,470 I can't keep up in corners! 281 00:25:01,770 --> 00:25:04,140 I've never seen anything like this before. 282 00:06:23,250 --> 00:06:28,000 NATURAL
