With not the best of starting off, Kiki-Jiki noticed that Saiga was right up beside him. With a smile, he shined his teeth to her "Ki~shi~shi~shi"

Nia Ueda

Okay, easy. Easy. She was just making sure she knew how to use the vehicle properly before speeding off. After all... she didn't want to lose control and crash. Safety first, was it? Though...she could almost imagine Nito, shaking his head and urging her on. And she could even imagine herself saying 'B-but Nito...' with a whine. Ah! But...enough about that. She needed to focus on the race right now. She could see the silver haired girl and the challenger were serious, already speeding off, getting out of her sight. The others, well...they were taking things easier, right? Perhaps...this wasn't such a serious business? At least...she was enjoying the air on her face.

Saiga Giriko, Jo(shu) Michieru,
Saiga chuckled a bit louder as she took off from the starting line with a decent lead, looking behind her.
"Come on Shu, keep up!" she called back to him, as she came up tot the bridge. She had spent so long the last race trailing because of him, so it was only right that she get a little revenge on him this time.
Jo(shu) was off to a bit of a shaky start from how he took off, but he kept driving forward, coming onto the bridge.
"Alright...Nice and steady." he called to himself, as he continued to drive along, getting his bike steady. He had a bit of trouble trying not to fall over from revving it up, but he could make up the gap in no time. He just had to catch up to her, and give her a piece of his mind.
"Darting off like that....."

[Arena Emperor]

Haruto Mashiba, Dashing Rogue and Mysterious Fool
"...The silence echoes through me, like the voices of the ones I've lost. It's better to live with their whispers than with nothing at all..."

Thinking about it now, actually playing 'Danger Zone' might have been more appropriate given his excitable shout back at the first post, but he didn't really give it any more thought than that. His bike was roaring through the streets, the speed bike's powerful motor humming as he flew along the paths of the Iwatodai section of the race towards the Moonlight Bridge...there was a section that he could really appreciate...just straight road, weaving through competition and traffic, a beautiful view on the horizon. One of these day's he'd like to take Noelle on a ride across this bridge, but first, he'd have to convince her to actually let him get her on the back of his bike. He could already imagine her turning her nose up at riding along with him; still, she was an adventurous and energetic girl. He had a feeling he could get to her eventually, and then his 'Up-Close-and-Personal Plan' would be comp-oh! Right, the race. He was really riding through the Danger Zone right now, and it was going to get even harder to win once some of the opponents really kicked things into gear. There were some heavily-modded bikes running right now, and his was pretty simply a Pochi-Modded, Matsu-Class Speed Bike. He hoped to give the thing a few more upgrades sooner, rather than later, though...

"Hey Maverick!" Haruto called out energetically towards the dyed-haired rocker that had challenged him at the outset of the race. If his hunch was correct, he'd get the reference immediately and this would end up being even more fun than he'd expected, "I got the NEED...!"

"GOYIOTAAAAAAAH~!" Zorc shouted out as he was racing quite smoothly. Not too fast, but not terribly slow either. As he was motoring through, he looked at all the rest of the people racing, and gave them all the polite solo salute.

[Kai Hiwatari#1]

Eiji "Gin" Mishima

Gin smirked as he pulled ahead of the pack, and even the guy who'd started the race. Still, Mashiba was a fun figure, and when he called out to Gin, the member of Nix couldn't help but smirk and glance into his rear view. "...the need for SPEED!" Gin called back knowingly, though he worried that the guy had just mistakenly called himself Goose. Did that mean that he intended to bite it further down the race? And if they were Maverick and Goose, he couldn't help but think there was the unfortunate implication that that made Nix Ice Man...and Ice Man, while a legend in his own right, would never be as cool as the fearsome team, street-grinding machine! "Looks like the Queen is two steps behind today." Gin remarked, burning across the Moonlight Bridge. It was a place of danger...but also a golden opportunity for early victory.

Minori Koroko

A-aah! No, wait! This was going too fast! It kind of reminded her of her rides with Ame on Sleipnir...And she definitely loathed those. But...at least...she was still in control of the bike. T-that was good, right?

Kisa

After the initial burn of her engine (and the long trail of flame behind it), Kisa continued to keep her eyes focused on the track ahead. There was plenty of track to enjoy, after all, and she had every intention of enjoying the race to the fullest.

Tezuka Rembrii, Forgetful Junior, And Tatsumaki Kikai, Tech-savvy Senior
Tezuka was off....To a shaky start. His engine stalled a bit, and he was too busy trying to play the race safe as he barely inched out of the gate. One could probably get off the bike and Run faster than he was going....Though, he had to be safe.
Tats glanced as he watched the silver haired girl rocket out, with the practiced speed of a professional...and the other boy stalled, and staggered to try to drive at all.
"Hey..You okay?" he called back as he slowed down, trying to make sure he didn't spin out and crash. Yeah, it was a race, but it wasn't a race to the death. It was just in good fun, right?
Either way...let's keep it up. he told himself as he kept driving, moving along, but stealing glances behind him to make sure the boy wasn't..you know, dead.
