That was done intentionally, the real Japanese name was "Shutokou Battle" and Shutokou is a slightly different way of saying "Shuto Kōsoku Dōro" which translates to "Metropolitan Expressway". Basically, in the original title of the game, the entire point of the game was to race on a recreated version of the Tokyo expressway system as inspired by the car culture surrounding it in the 90's.
Well, there is a group of modders who remodeled it and you can drive majority of the Shuto expressway now in Assetto Corsa. Incredibly detailed. I recognized every corner on the video. Even the starting place, that is Tatsumi parking area.
Makes me think that the people who work for toll gates in this place must have quite the time watching these midnight races every now and then ever since.
rotary doesnt use pistons, it uses a triangle that spins, its hard to explain without showing you, but since the only moving part is the rotor (the triangle) they can spin to amazingly high rpm's resulting in gobs of highend power, the only downside is they run a bit hot and get horrible gas mileage.
what you just witnessed was lift oversteer. deceleration through a corner shifted enough weight forward to cause the rear tires to reach their limit of traction, thus kicking out the rear
the thing that i like about it is that even during the race, the still use signal when they meet with car that not involve in the race. good driving attitude.
The US government took away these cars for a reason. People who are buying GT-R's, etc are repeating the same mistake as the ones who are to blame for the recall years back.
Its so weird seeing the cars rear wheels not slip after any slight degree of a turn like in maximum tune. But god damn did they accurately recreate the map!
Why is everyone complaining about the driving? These guys know what they are doing, i bet half the people who complain about the driving are to scared to even try this.
its the ideal way o shift in a rotary idiots in a rotary the drive shaft is actualy spinning way faster then the engine if he where to shift nomally the clutch acually drops the revs 2-3k and in a turbo its to keep that spool in the key area to where no lag occurs at all
I dont care what none of u say drag racing suck's and I literaly mean it sucks this kills drag this is what I CALL REAL STREET RACING highway is way better
@@Felix-ix3qe are totally different, the touge it's more technical and the power isn't that important while in the highways... Top speed and balls of steel ( well at all racing)
The footage and the audio are not synced. You can hear him coasting while the footage shows him blasting down straights. And you can hear them mashing the throttle while driving slowly around tighter turns... What!?
And they still behave better than some other street racers... Like from Germany. Some think all that matters is power. But no: You gotta be one with the car or else you'll hit a pedestrian!
Why is everybody here trying to sound smart rotary this rotary that. Just watch the video, enjoy it, and move on. I know none of you have driven a car at this speed in any streets in the US. So quit criticizing the driver with the shifting. If the car makes sounds when shifting gears it aint your problem. Its his car his money and he's enjoying driving it. Just appreciate.
DJ Haze no he’s just shifting frequently, my guess is this RX-7 isn’t turbocharged and because rotary engines deliver peak power at high rpm, he’s constantly needing to change gear to get the most out of his engine
id say its way more illegal to do this in japan lmao we’re lucky to have 65mph limits (that people barely adhere to, definitely not in the south where its 85 or get crushed) while japan has like barely even 50mph limits
Its the first japanese vid ive seen someone grannyshifting and waiting for the other cars. The other vids guys are WOT and who ever touch the brake pedal is a rotten egg lol.
Why can't there be a game like this. A modern one. Not Import Tuner Challenge or FNF but a GT or Forza feel but on open roads.. =( (not horizon......that was shit...)
Well The Crew might be what we want, however im sceptical about it, i haven't got a Key for Beta from Ubisoft :(. It might be a good game if they won't fuck up handling by making it another arcade...
So mostly everybody here commenting never heard of double clutching??? People saying he doesn't know how to shift... Your all being laughed at. Go back to your virtual world of racing lol
Nah mate he's definitely shifting like a spastic: Hear him change down one too many gears, realize he's just about on the redline and shift up against straight away. Hear him search for a gear. Hear him change down and engine brake MID CORNER. He doesn't have a clue.
Dicksand Ballsnshit totally agree. WTF is with that. It's actually dangerous and more likely to cause himself an accident. I thought there was more gear shifts in F&F civics but dang I was wrong 😂
@@dicksandballsnshit3856 Completely agree with you lol, Brian must've thought Dom was talking to him in F&F hahaha. "Granny shifting not double clutching like you should" Double clutching would never be done in that sort of spastic manner, and if done properly wouldn't even be that noticeable.
Would it be possible to use your video, and do some sort of commentary over it, I have a couple of videos up on my channel, if you would like to take a look before coming to a decision
that sounds like either a Subaru motor (horizontal) or a honda (longitudinal) rotary blocks are oval and tiny, they go from 1.3 to 2.6 liters. theyre awesome engines once you master them, they love high rpms. they just take alot of time to get them perfect@LoveThatBass921
You can tell this FD and R32 drivers are good friends by the way they drive together haha. Wish I was there!
Wangan man!
A man of culture, i see you everywhere in the comments of these type of videos

With this video you can see how accurate the Assetto Corsa SRP mod is 😱
is the hashiriya server on fivem accurate too?
@@twixxtro idk

Holy shit

God... It's crazy how Tokyo Xtreme Racer series almost made the map spot on. hahaha
Andrew Luebker it was based on the C1 Shuto racers of the 80s/90s there also 6 films based on it I have them you can find some on here too

I dont criticize his shifting cause every up or downshift sounds as crazy as the car, so I like it!! Thank god for these kind of earporn videos :D

He just be having fun lol
In a rotary car in order to keep up you need to pretty much keep the revs high.
Ah reliable cars and a masterpiece of a highway quality.
My man just called an FD a reliable car lmao
@@Ondra_rx7 it is
@@sethalexis6741 as far as i know the rotary engine isnt

Hi Jimmer
Earliest comment of the strat expert recorded on UA-cam
Jimmy Broadbent jimmer
ello jimmr
Oh boi a jimmer comment from ancient times
finally something filmed with a good camera
Watching fast and furious like "nobody changes gears that often"
Meanwhile this dude can't stay in a gear for more than 3 seconds.
He has to though. Way too much traffic for staying in gear and keeping up with someone else.
It doesn't matter that's it's rotary, anyone that drives c1 this well, in any car, knows his/her shit and makes the video so much better to watch.
Makes me think that the people who work for toll gates in this place must have quite the time watching these midnight races every now and then ever since.
Bet there's a bet on who wins
im glad to see that there are so many experts in youtube!

4:32 does his rear end kick out on lift there? damn wish they didn't cut there :/
That’s what it looks like to me and on a bend like that at speed probably
what you just witnessed was lift oversteer. deceleration through a corner shifted enough weight forward to cause the rear tires to reach their limit of traction, thus kicking out the rear
Damn i didn't even notice, but yeah the rear did kick out
It looked like he was going straight to the wall
Yep, I was looking for this comment. If it wasn't a crash he spinned out
the thing that i like about it is that even during the race, the still use signal when they meet with car that not involve in the race. good driving attitude.
I miss this era of Japanese cars. Im glad they brought the GTR to the USA, now bring back the Supra and the RX7!!!
The US government took away these cars for a reason. People who are buying GT-R's, etc are repeating the same mistake as the ones who are to blame for the recall years back.
Fumxe elaborate on that?
the supra and RX-7 were released in america though, and the new GTR cant really be put in the same category as the Skyline GTR's.
The GT-R is classified as a supercar since it can challenge any luxury exotic head to head.
Yes
くっそ心地いいサウンド👍
I miss ripping down the parkway when corona first started :(
Now that Corona is over, you can do it again!
I could watch this for hours. Wish it was longer to fall asleep to.

You can hear him coasting while the footage shows him blasting down straights.
And you can hear them mashing the throttle while driving slowly around tighter turns...
What!?
I’d rather have skilled drivers racing our highways instead on average drivers texting and road raging over a pass.
Awesome old footage
This is route 9 loop, not exactly C1
The yellow rx 7 is the same one I saw in japan so u was going to tokyo disney land at night while we were driving I saw the rx 7 and a supra raceing
lol the happy rotary blip when he saw the other rx7s
Why 2000s flew so fast...
just got reccomend to me and I am not complaining
The down shift makes me hard 🤣 this is so awesome
And they still behave better than some other street racers... Like from Germany. Some think all that matters is power. But no: You gotta be one with the car or else you'll hit a pedestrian!
意味のないダブルアクセルやめろよ！
Rotary = best sounding engine
You can tell you have done way too much simracing when you can recognize every corner yet never driven the real thing.

which dvd is this from? i own the neweramedia dvds and this isnt it on im sure? also google doesnt find a dvd for 'Japanese power edition 1'

And most of it isn't shifting, a lot of the time it is his foot coming off the gas and than stepping on it again.

Wangan dreaming.
Why so many shifts? Were you not able to bring it to the top RPMs?
Rotary for life
めっちゃシフト変えるね。
It's just lke the video game!
look it up on youtube rotary engine the rx 8 has an engine like that.
This might be a dumb question but is the driver in the rx7 double clutching when he upshifts? It sounds like he's rev matching.
DJ Haze no he’s just shifting frequently, my guess is this RX-7 isn’t turbocharged and because rotary engines deliver peak power at high rpm, he’s constantly needing to change gear to get the most out of his engine
@@unknowntm3856 Dude what are you talking about? All FD's come fitted with Hitachi HT-12 sequential ceramic twin turbos from the factory.
YeSS, some times he does Rev on upshifts. I don't know about RX7 but on old race cars was common to help you to change gears.
