Itsuki Takeuchi with AE85
Itsuki, Takumi best friend who had been friend for long time. He does not have a good drivng skill as Takumi but his dream is to be a reacer. He start to drive when is he 18 years old, so by the experience Itsuki is the begenner who is learning in the first level.
The worst driver in the Akani 'SpeedStar' who could get into this team by putting 'SpeedStar' icon on AE86 without tell the onwer of the car.

Shingo Shoji with EG6 Civic
Bad driver who race Takumi in dead math Tape. By his skill he is the top chart of 'Night Kids' but the choise to practice to in math Tape in downhill even in regular math his uphill is the best in 'Night Kids' but he likes to beat others in the bad ways more, so he race in Takumi at Akina and hit AE86 by purpose
By his car, is car is a good car with the high power of engine that can go on the uphill easily and the weight that can have an fest drift. But he choise to use his car to his other to make an acciden.
Kyoichi Sudo, Evo III CE9A
He is the team leader and driving ace of the Lancer Evolution-only 'Emperor' team from Gunma but the reason that he lost to Takumi because Ryosuke let Takumi trick Kyocichi to let him think Takumi is slower than he suppose to be. He is also one of the best driver in the series.
He is also a graduate of the racing school, the Todo School, despite having no prior-hinted connections to the institute: his Evo III is a stark contrast to the FWD Hondas the students use, and Sudo uses no Spoon Sports parts on his vehicle. He reject to use one of the best car in the serise from the Todo School.
