Too bad he spilled his cup of water.

[@theunknown-cg2de]

lol

[@user-fm6im2nq1k]

gh3ttoduCanada XDXD That just made my day

[@Vectrex4Life]

To people complaining about the physics: Initial D doesn't aim for complete realism. In fact it's one of the more realistic arcade racer series out there, I own a pair of Version 2 machines and it's a perfect mix of realism and fast arcade fun. The Cruis'n series and the Fast and Furious series for example, are completely unrealistic with their backflipping cars and shit. Initial D is much more hardcore and takes a while to get great times like the one in this video. It's as close as it gets without being a simulator and overly slow. Sadly American arcades really only have the more childish racers and Americans have turned their noses to Initial D. SEGA stopped exporting the series after Version 4 because most American gamers suck at the series and didn't like that it takes time to be good at it. The last time there was a major arcade racing simulator, it was SEGA's Ferrari F355 Challenge 1 and 2 from 1999 and 2000. Sadly the damn truth is that 90% of arcade racers have come to incredibly unrealistic physics, but Initial D is at least hardcore in the competative time attack department.

[@BayAreaRushHour]

I'll be honest I wasn't a big fan of the initial d arcade stages after 3. I haven't tried 5 tho but 4 and 6 were much more arcade like, easier to pick up cuz of the driftier physics, and 8 I have to resist the temptation to crank the wheel like in 3 cuz that game really punishes you for turning at more than a 90 degree angle. 3 I thought was the right amount of realism mixed with its arcade physics. But yeah I'm always disappointed when I walk into an arcade and the only thing they've got is those fast n furious games where you pump the gas twice to do a wheelie and backflip, and taking turns is as simple as turning the wheel

[@thegamingcouch6865]

It’s nice of your to mention Sega F355. I have a twin F355 machine and it is a lovely machine to own. I used to play that game as a child and thought it was wayyyy to hard. Now I have mastered it and love it. KUDO for the shout out

[@linkery]

Funny how people complain of arcade physics on a actual arcade game

[@Arexion5293]

Bunta would be proud.

[@cristianflores1588]

Arexion5293 Nah, he’ll be just be impressed about it but not amused.

[@GarethHall]

Wow, that was impressive.

[@treebush]

Doesn't matter the physic is not real initial d is a game that you still need to be skilled at obviously people who complain have not played initial d

[@Leonx25]

I second this

[@quechus13]

And yet no one here can say he is better nor has proof that he is. The game isn't supposed to be realistic, its supposed to be challenging.

[@Indraroh]

Holy hell the autism of the people in these comments "Durr its not realistic, go play this Bore Simulator instead."

[@RNLee]

and that wasn't even the top score.

[@joshuapetricka]

because i already have the top score with spec99 card yo. this was my other card./////

[@abdulka2991]

joshua petricka fucken beast.

[@jaku86]

joshua petricka but can you do it without spilling any water from the cup :D

[@Jukka58]

joshua petricka yo

[@ThexDynastxQueen]

I know who I'm hiring for my -getaway car-...err I mean carpool.

[@bossness284]

may i ask how you did that?

[@ThexDynastxQueen]

***** For strikethrough you put a - directly at the beginning and the end of the words you wanna strike out. - like this - (just without the spaces) -demo-

[@tj3219]

You da MVP Dynast Queen

[@crimes]

This was hypnotic...

[@penyuwan]

Its like playing flappy bird without crashing.

[@jacketsj]

I do NOT want this guy driving me around.

[@fronkus123]

I do. It would be the funnest thing ever.

[@keeganfirecloak4695]

I do

[@greentea_vsrg]

Woah! Unrealistic physics in an arcade game? No fucking way!

[@edwinlim7729]

You can actually do that in real life bruhh

[@Jdawg0529]

And they call this dude.... Drift King.

[@casperd2100]

+Jdawg Drift Kings don't make mistakes. Too bad you normies don't get to see pro players in Japan.

[@joshuapetricka]

+casperd2100 those people live and breathe ID haha but im glad we alteast have a jdm cab here to run on. the US has no times near japan or Malaysia.

[@EZmoneh]

This guy can rob banks and no one would catch him. Ever.

[@SamMarsh04]

Except if there's a helicopter...

[@RNLee]

not true. notice there was no cars involved in that run he just did. :T

[@ownleetulende8650]

Notice he did not break the record

[@SevenFootPelican]

The drifting physics are so cartoon-ish, it can almost be summed as being perfect.

[@zockbaybe7410]

doesn't matter. hes still fuckin great.

[@Magniton1]

so? Your point is?...

[@EscortSportage]

no body roll

[@fronkus123]

This game is an arcade game. Not a sim. Also it’s a game based off an anime. You need to get your head screwed on tighter if you think this should be more realistic. Also it takes lots of practice to be good like this so I don’t see the point your trying to make.

[@tommyshommy]

Idk why the replies to this are so salty, he was saying the game is good and like the anime

[@loismen15]

The thing is...he didn't brake the record. wtf It would take me twice as much time to finish that race.

[@jamiebrown2844]

The thing is...that is his record!

[@fhfffhfhffffhfhfourt]

absolutely incredible.

[@bryanyeoh8641]

Driving school ethics in arcade games. You are truly a magnificient driver.

[@GoSuFear]

But can he see why kids love the taste of cinnamon toast crunch?

[@HB_Iamthedanger]

Awesome skill.

[@Ne0nZombie]

If someone put this on a 10-hour loop, I'd probably end up watching all of it. That was strangely mesmerizing, lol.

[@PhilippLange]

This brings a tear to my eye.

[@xShinobiii]

But.... But... You cant drift like that in todays video games =(. One drift and youre in Africa.

[@juusukun]

What? Playing today's games you can't be decent without drifting...

[@juusukun]

Also the game is only 3 years old!

[@xShinobiii]

Justin Smith Yah, but I said u cant drift like that in any good driving game.

[@MrHouseMusic619]

xShinobiii Yeah, I play a lot of Forza 5 and Forza is the closest game that I've played compared to real life driving. The physics in that game in the video aren't that far off, but the video makes you seem like your are going much faster than you really are. He was only going about 65 MPH according to the speedometer.

[@Yykba1]

MrHouseMusic619 try race07 if you want realistic physics.

[@BlackWolf42-]

Josh, you have brought great honor to UC Davis. Thank You

[@Aleric204]

I forgot to breathe for a few seconds because i was so amazed at his skill

[@hannibalkills1214]

Guys, why the fuck are you expecting 'realism' from an _arcade game_ based on an _anime_?

[@jhj22]

MAN! What a fun was it to watch :D

[@Waffle4569]

Give that man a fucking cookie god dammit.

[@marleycameron531]

I played this at derpycon 2016! It was intense!

[@amazingman63]

I get the feeling you've played this game before

[@tact1calbanana388]

amazingman63 DEJA VU!

[@eaglekiller23]

Mesmerizing...That is some of the best driving I've ever seen

[@wheelstandpro]

Wow! All the guys at wheelstandpro r way impressed with skills like this! Nice one!

[@Nightwing160000]

That was awesome!

[@quinnpd]

Congratulations, you have been accepted into Video Game High School!!!

[@KevinoftheCosmos]

Admirable.

[@czarny090]

I thought Asians can't drive.

[@ralphmiranda2077]

BlackDog well, virtually speaking... 😉

[@jaxtbate6558]

BlackDog denial can be an ugry thing young grashopper. :)

[@Zack8007]

[@chase14000]

Made in Japan, dumbass.

[@aidididham4681]

That was dopee bro

[@GameflashC]

Never mind the gameplay ! Did anyone else notice how steady the camera mans hands were :O?

[@jongdg]

That is the most impressive example of video game driving I have ever seen.

[@SpektreProxy]

Its like watching the anime ahhhh the memories, Mad skills btw

[@javiernajera9004]

drifiting game too strong

[@vatsalsharma2299]

you sir are a true champion

[@trickySK]

[@rtrgrl78]

Awesome, I need that machine in my life right now.

[@elev84u]

[@TheSantaofSantas]

Insane skill and memory going on there.

[@RyuusanFT86]

I found one of these at scandia by my house in california. Out of all the places in USA, Scandia

[@RyuusanFT86]

Can someone PLEASE tell me where to get blank 6AA cards!?

[@halo34jess117]

+遥七瀬（天使） My best guess for you is to contact the company which makes this arcade

[@RyuusanFT86]

halo34jess117 Thank you

[@kail1660]

Lol scandia sucked when I went!

[@AJplaysgames8907]

They have a AS6 machine in sunsplash now

[@thelocaluk]

Insane skillz

[@GaavWoW]

Ur sick bro

[@kingdarunia053]

Oh... you used the AE86. That just just adds to the awesomeness.

[@HassyGaming]

it would be interesting to see him go up that course

[@jonathanwilliams8016]

This game looks awesome!!

[@itscowfoot]

The force is strong with this one

[@jcassokh]

Absolute beast.

[@minoruiwasa8181]

素晴らしい！

[@ValentineC137]

I like this guy's choice of map

[@odeball22]

holy shit

[@Glepthegreendude]

My dad and I fucking love this game, always play it when we go to conventions.

[@ksiarmy100able]

Takumi is that you? or is it Bunta ?

[@LordRazer3]

It's neither and the only person I can think of it being is Itsuki.

[@captaindragon133]

Bunta was top score

[@nicolasjamesrosario318]

Ryousuke

[@javierstrive3356]

Maybe Shinigami

[@jimkont]

Some say he wears a hat upside down, and that he owns half a goat. All we know is he's called the Stig!

[@mohdhadif2911]

WOW You are truly pro racer in this arcade game although i was very noob at this arcade game..

[@singgeul8865]

I always love this games JDM styles

[@HenrikBgelundLavstsen]

if this wasn't a driving game i would say you gaming skill level in this game would be: asian

[@brodobroggins]

The Japanese are actually pretty good drivers for the most part. Getting a drivers license is much harder in Japan than in the states and there is also a racing scene in Japan.

[@SnackPatrol]

Haha, nice.

[@aiPriori]

Scroto Saggins True, I think this stereotype stuck during Generation X (60's-80's) when flocks of immigrants moved into America. Back in this era, most Asian countries were a lot more rural, and most people never driven a car so it was very much a new thing to learn. According to the statistics by NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), people of Asian ethnicity are involved in 50% overall less motor accidents (fatal and non-fatal) compared to other ethnicities in America. From personal experience, most wrecks I've seen are usually old folks, valley girls on their cell phones, or wanksters who lean their seat back all the way with no control of their cars.

[@ThePrototypev9]

Asian is too broad when referring to video games. Korean would better fit. Asians as a whole are more stereotyped for maths.

[@kevinmiller9851]

Really impressive driving. Josh is a regular Takumi Fujiwara. I sure wish that there were courses like this in every racing game. I'm looking at you, Assetto Corsa.

[@grayel]

That was fucking awesome! I don't think I blinked once...

[@OvercomingInstincts13]

impressive!

[@liqiuicity]

Holy shit, I'm about to play Initial D 6 from Arcade Stage version 3 and I'm scared none of the methods I use will work haha. I can tell this is actually legit drifting now, and I'm just so astonished at the fact you downshifted to 2 on some turns. I'm used to TST drifting where you do a 4-5 downshift into a feint lol

[@Alexandahls]

Freakin' sick!

[@Nihiliste-]

CRAZY level.

[@rezahaziq7486]

Wow a magician

[@RelaxedKoi]

Fuck me. I'm still a noob. My Skyline isn't even there yet :'( I can't believe my local arcade took out this game GAHHH.

[@arguemental]

skills man!

[@Andi-er7uf]

Very realistic driving ;-)

[@TheAMOTVBrunei]

Level: Master

[@tubularLeah]

Speedy Speed Boy, Gasoline's Burnin'~! and I thought I was good at ID4

[@snusmumriken232]

respect!!

[@AkihoSiNtheOriginal]

this guys a god.

[@benjaminzer]

This game as an arcade racer isn't easy. You have to twist the steering to the extreme really early just to enter a hairpin. I found the newer Arcade Stage's handling much easier and more believable

[@73dustpan]

Never saw this game in the states

[@lin2k4]

Bunta would be proud

[@yuri64]

insane!

[@Nintendrew]

Woah.

[@shawnpowell4618]

This looks a lot like me going to work in the morning time.. Absolutely no use of breaks till I'm there.. :0)

[@XradicalD]

Sweet driving, but I wouldn't get in his car, constant heart attacks.

[@golem2154]

XradicalD now you know how Bunta's friend feels

[@marcferrer1442]

Iketani passed out on the 3rd corner, too

[@larryshere2422]

Flawless O_O

[@themrkinhos1]

this was cool

[@kurthunter6011]

He is so good

[@SajalKMitra]

Congrats! your video has been featured on #Kotaku

[@Oo2k10]

He was in the zone.

[@Andrew-gh6lm]

Man, ridiculous good, I have played this game and it was very hard, for me at least.

[@TheDarknessCamel]

If you look at the reflection on the screen you can kinda make out that it's a ranga with an afro playing.

[@Oualouidji]

Very popular video! Too bad I never play any Initial D games, as a fan of the manga... I would like to play it one day. I can't judge the difficulty of the game, it looks cool though!
