Suddenly a low tone sound of an exhaust can be heard. Hiroki and Michiko are surprised by the sound.
Michiko: What’s that?
Hiroki: Yeah I hear it too…
The sound is heard again but this time it gets louder.
Michiko: Hiroki, what is that sound?
She turns to look at Hiroki who is grinning. He starts to chuckle.
Michiko: Hiroki?!
Hiroki: Strap yourself in babe…it’s comin...
Michiko: What is?
The noise gets louder and louder. Michiko looks into the rearview mirror and a pair of lights show up. A silver R33 comes up from behind and speeds past them.
Hiroki: Whoa! A silver R33!
Michiko: An R33?
Hiroki (annoyed): It’s a Skyline…
Michiko: What’s a Skyline?
Hiroki: Jeez! It’s a Nissan okay? A Nissan Skyline GT-R!
Michiko: Sorry…What’s his problem? He didn’t have to yell at me…
Suddenly another sound is heard.
Michiko: Is that another car? It has a high pitch sound to it; not like the last car that passed us.
From behind, another pair of lights is visible. Michiko slowly looks at the rearview and sees the car.
Michiko: It’s white like a cloud but it almost seems transparent like a ghost.
The car moves to the left of the Aristo and Michiko gets a look at the driver’s side of the car. As the car moves past, the rear shows the make.
Michiko: RX-7 Savanna GT-X…
Hiroki: N-No way…
Michiko: What’s wrong Hiroki?
Michiko looks at Hiroki. His face has completely changed. Fear is now struck in his face.
Michiko: Hiroki, what’s the matter?
Hiroki: I-It's him...
Michiko: Huh?
Hiroki: T-That’s the…P-Phantom…
Michiko: The Phantom?
Hiroki: He’s the one I told you about. The white colored RX-7…it really is true…he really is here…
Hiroki grips his steering wheel and puts his hand on the shifter. A slow grin emerges on his face.
Hiroki: He’s the one I’ve been looking for! The legendary Phantom of the Streets! The FC Phantom!
He shifts out of 4th gear and into 2nd. The Aristo pulls forward and increases its speed. Michiko is thrown back in her seat.
Michiko: Hiroki, what are you doing?!
Hiroki: Racing babe! Now be quiet and watch this!
He slams the accelerator and the Aristo gains speed.
Hiroki: I’m going to win tonight! This is what I trained for! My Aristo will become the fastest in Wangan! I’ll become a legend!!!
Michiko holds on to her seatbelt as Hiroki attempts to follow the R33 and the FC. He manages to catch up to the FC and flashes his lights. A scene is shown inside the FC where the driver’s face is covered except for his mouth area.
FC driver: An Aristo…he wants in on this race?
Scene cuts to Hiroki.
Hiroki: Come on, don’t deny my challenge. Let me race with you; I’ll show you what my car can do.
Scene cuts back to the FC driver.
FC Driver: (smile) All right; we’ll let you play for a while.
The FC driver flashes his lights to the R33.
R33 Driver: You’re really going to let this amateur in on our race? (Sigh) I was hoping to take you on myself tonight.
The R33 and FC slow down to allow the Aristo in on the race.
Michiko: What’s going on? Are we actually in a race?
Hiroki: Don’t worry babe. I won’t lose; not tonight…
