Round 3 of the MFG competition is heating up on the final race day at the Peninsula Manazuru track. Despite starting at the very front of the pack, MFG rookie Kanata Katagiri has difficulty getting the most out of his Toyota 86 GT due to an injury unknown to his competitors. Falling further behind, Kanata finds himself in a desperate situation that only stirs up unwanted memories. At the head of the race, a vicious battle takes place between the two top drivers in the competition—Michael Beckenbauer and Kouki Sawatari—for the first spot on the podium. Given their aggressive and absurd driving, anyone daring to surpass either of them will have to match their level of pride until the very end. But when all hope seems lost for Kanata, a legendary competitive spirit awakens within him, and it may just push him to overcome his physical limitations and climb back to the top.
