Before Takumi races Nobuhiko, Ryosuke's told Takumi to let him keep up until the first hairpin, but let's be honest, Takumi could just pull away after the first few turns, so why bother letting him keep up? Nobuhiko literally thought up a way to almost counter Takumi by choosing a Cappuccino against him for the next downhill battle. That makes absolutely no sense to Ryosuke's advice as it just made Takumi to be disadvantaged. [ Post made via Mobile Device ] |

Ryosuke saw through Nobuhiko & felt that after defeating a Pro driver, Takumi was starting to get cocky & laxing back to his old self without anyone to challenge him. He feared that he would gradually become complacent & start thinking he's the hot silver king of The mountain Top. ♪ Ryosuke wanted Takumi to be challenged because if he hadn't showed Nobuhiko his driving style & technique ... Nobuhiko would have never been able to come-up with a formidable opponent like the Rally Driver Capuccino in a Rain battle. → Ryosuke's advice was no advice at all. Rather a slap at Takumi Fujiwara mister King of the Asphalt Fight's face to ground his cocky-ass & make him realize a smaller/slower opponent such as himself ~ can and is capable of killing his AE86 ... → Because the higher One goes the harder One falls ~ and Ryosuke didn't want Takumi to fall & break like humpty dumpty whence he's at the Pro level ... in front of the whole World to see. → Because Ryosuke loves Takumi ... and Takumi was too naive ~ too blind for him to ever that see ~ This post has been edited by xiao on Feb 18 2017, 11:32 AM |
