In a battle for touge victory, the rear wheel drive competitors Mazda RX-7 and Honda S2000 fight for poll position. The sun is high, and the path is shaded with trees. Intermittent blasts of shade and sun create a challenging course for the drivers. Twists and turns of the road at various cambers combined with the vision impairment do not slow down the JDM gods. Equipped with the best parts money can buy, both vehicles swiftly take the mountain pass course with style and extreme speed.

The Honda S2000 is the same vehicle we discussed before. Modified for touge with suspension and performance modifications, the Honda S2000 is difficult competition for the RX-7. Both vehicles feature high RPM power bands and extreme rear wheel drive handling. Who will victor in this mountain road battle? Only the clock will tell, and it's up to the best of JDM drivers to determine the overall outcome. Touge is a dangerous form of racing, one wrong move and it could mean death!

Touge places the drivers in a unique competition of two passes, and compares times to determine a winner. Hang on to your mouse, this is one wild ride! Notice how the drivers speed through the road regardless of random blinding sun and shade, wild corners, and deathly cliffs should they loose traction. The word "touge" means mountain pass. To race through a mountain pass, is the ultimate in street style racing. However, touge is a sanctioned event held on a closed road and never performed openly on public roads! The ultimate test of drivers, touge!
