When Iketani got his s13 back and started practicing again Shingo shows up and bumps his car a couple of times. The last bump almost claiming him and his car's lives. The next day hanging with Takumi and the gang at the top of Mt. Akina Shingo shows up. Now here's the scenario- Shingo gets out of his eg6 and starts talking his smack. Do you take the high road like Iketani or do you take the low road and teach Shingo a lesson. Me. Personally. I would have to teach Shingo a lesson. You just don't mess with my car let alone my life. Sorry pal but its time to shut you up! [ Post made via Mobile Device ] |

Ikitani should have drove by and yelled "sucks to be you" instead of stopping to help. but then again shows how cool iketani is to stop and help the guy even after what shingo did. One thing that bugs me is how Iketani never seems to improve his skills yet is the leader of the speed stars. even on Akina, their local turf. |

I'd still call him an asshole once or twice during the first official meeting, but that's just my temper |

But I would have just left Shingo on the side of the street after he crashed his car. He's a jerk that looks out for no one but himself and he will do whatever it takes to get what he wants even if it is at the cost of others. If I was in Iketani's situation and I knew that he was the guy who almost caused me to wreck my car again then I would do nothing to help him. In fact I would roll by and laugh at his sorry butt because karma got him good. But alas, we are in the Initial D universe where everyone is nice to each other and there is an unspoken racer's code that is followed. Iketani is a good kid and he definitely did what was right... even if he did help out a dirty stinkin cheater... |

Him leaving Shingo on the side of the road will be quite out of character for him |

LOL I'm sure he learned not to use that technique in races anymore after his wreck. But I definitely wouldn't stop to help him out. [ Post made via Mobile Device ] |
