Wangan Midnight: C1 Runner

By the 2010's, the Japanese racing scene is largely off the street and has moved onto the circuit thanks to heightened police enforcement. Most tuners from the old era have moved on from it, becoming everyday mechanics.
Shinji Ogishima is a rising automotive journalist who aspires to revive the tuning magazine, GT Cars, in the modern era.
While doing so, he encounters Nob Setoguchi. A young street racing rascal driving an FD RX-7. Who, despite being good behind the wheel, doesn't know anything technical about cars, driving, or journalism. And so Nob begins his journey as a budding car enthusiast with the revived GT Cars.
