Page 28 — English translation

After a brief turbo lesson, Drift Samurai headed straight onto the circuit. For comparison, he first drove Drift Tengoku's boosted Cefiro, then Matsuoka's HKS Skyline. The Cefiro is certainly not slow—it once qualified in the D1 Grand Prix—but the 400-horsepower car was faster still! Samurai, let's add power to the Cefiro next time and enter D1 again!

Drift Samurai

Experience 400 horsepower!

...in impact...

A clear difference...

Swap!

Hard drifting at Ebisu South Course

Driven in almost the same conditions

Drift Tengoku Cefiro

It exits the final corner in second gear and takes time to reach the third-gear shift. The clutch-kick point consequently moves farther down the straight, delaying the moment it gets sideways. With insufficient power, the angle also starts to diminish...

It lacks impact

First-corner entry: it goes sideways earlier, drifts farther, and carries more speed along the straight!

Approach to the infield hairpin

Easily reaches it in one drift from corner four! More tire smoke, too!

Speed is sluggish as well!
