Synopsis:

In a near-future world where electric vehicles are commonplace, the competitive spirit of combustion engine racing endures through the MFG series. This online spectacle draws millions to follow aspiring drivers vying for a coveted spot among the Godly Fifteen and a substantial monetary reward. Kanata Rivington, adopting the alias "Kanata Katagiri," enters the tournament with a vintage Toyota 86 GT, a deliberate choice contrasting sharply with the advanced vehicles of his peers.

Driven by a personal quest to find his father, Kanata approaches the MFG not as a championship pursuit, but as a means to an end. Guidance from a seasoned racer offers strategic advantages, yet Kanata remains focused on uncovering his family's past. His unique driving style unexpectedly generates attention within the racing community, echoing the techniques of a legendary figure from MFG history, hinting at deeper connections and mysteries within the competition. The series explores themes of legacy, personal ambition, and the enduring appeal of classic motorsport in a rapidly evolving technological landscape.
