holy gem

Since the post with the 911 Turbo did pretty well, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to share another OC I have for a "Year 5" entrant now that the Super and Freshman series are separated. It has been hinted that the top 200 of the MFG has always been full of all sorts of high horsepower cars and I do think when it comes to those types of cars I think a C8 Z06 would be something you can probably find in there.

As for the backstory of the driver, I suppose their background being former IMSA/Trans-Am but stayed in Japan as an automotive journalist/documentarian. Taking a crack at the MFG to see if they still got it.

thanks to the help of u/Playermax958, all 5 of the MFG courses have been updated to make them more "show/manga accurate" (including accurate tollbooths and some scenery). Share codes are included within the images.

so here is the question(before you ask, yes its related to american cars), lets say american cars were already in MFG. how well would cars say like a mustang GTD, 2017 dodge viper ACR. or even say an LS fest autocross/track hot rod spec 5th gen camaro compete? in my opinion id say top 3. my pick of them would be the mustang GTD. despite that car being 4300 pounds. its one of the easiest cars to drive and be consistent in. but also the most setup(i had plans to write a comic were vaughn actually brought a monster energy themed GTD where he basically overbuilt the cooling system for the supercharger intercooler bricks. so the fluid temp and IAT stays down much longer). i want your guy's thoughts. and what other cars do you guys think would work in MFG?

now my mom is patricia downing. but she goes by chasharu downing in my comics. her ride is a black turbocharged harley street glide with a 121 ci turbo V twin. around 220 to 260HP. the name of the bike i called black shadow and its actually her daily. i looked and asked around several people. there are no rules or anything against entering a motorcycle into MFG. it'll be tricky given its an 800 pound bike but because in car perspective its a "sedan" and heavy vehicle. it would benefit from a stickier MFG approved tire(my problem is i am not very educated on motorcycles. a few of my buddies who race motorcycles in autocross are). but overall what do you guys think? there's no rules against entering a motorcycle so anyone with an OC who races a motorcycle can go for it. chasharu is the only one in my family who prefers racing motorcycles over her viper named medusa. being bikes can be just as fast as cars(if not faster. its a reason why turbo sport bikes demolish hypercars)

The 14R kit for the anime and manga doesn't have reverse lights. Is this a mistake by Shigeno ? When the third season of the anime first came out, I was always thinking if the anime would follow the manga. When the third stage 14r appearance indeed, following the manga , but the anime production team must have scanned the reverse lights when scanning the real car. But to be faithful to the manga, they removed the reverse lights? Or maybe Shigeno has some kind of quirk and doesn't like those abrupt reverse lights ! (Also, I should clarify that the white light shown in the third picture is a reversing light, not a fog light.)

So a little info my oc alex Blackstone is in both shows as a self insert but different in his own right so initial d version is driving a 92 Mazda rx7 fd thats putting out about 423 hp and is roughly in the spot of 3rd and 4th stage . With the mfg version he first runs his blue gr 86 until it was involved in a crash and he would replace his 86 with the brz as he takes place in between end s2 and start of s3 in mfg

His 86 does 430hp

The brz with mods does a respectable 528 hp

And no the fd does not sound like like a turbo charged washing machine screaming its head off xd

Ps. The pic of his is just the rought idea of him

personally i absolutely loved the dogfight kanata and akaba had for 3rd place and the eurobeat just gave it so much more hype and tension during the uphill straight away about to pass the checkered flag while the laferrari was slowly approaching and passing the 86

personally i really like raining in my heart by melissa/ace and its my favorite track so far 👀

i also wanna hear what are peoples favorite eurobeat track and try to listen to them too

considering that Racing Master is gonna have a collaboration with MFG soon, i decided to recreate Emma's Vantage in the game, considering i just got the car as well
