Welcome back. Let's continue the day
0:28
trip. I hope you had time for a hot
0:30
drink to warm your boats. And for this
0:32
part, we have some cool classics. Some
0:35
real motoring heritage on display. Well,
0:38
there's no need for me to say anymore.
0:47
You know the drill. Stay together for
0:49
the best experience. Don't get lost. Oh,
0:52
and remember to take photos.
0:55
We are going past the Hiroaki Castle.
0:58
This Hiroyama style castle was
0:59
construction complete in 1611, a long
1:04
Right now though, the castle is a very
1:06
popular tourist destination for those
1:08
seeking this type of traditional stone
1:10
and wood architecture. With the high
1:13
density of cherry blossom trees, you
1:15
have to visit in the springtime when
1:17
it's at its most respplendant.
1:19
Continuing our classic theme for this
1:21
day trip, I've switched genres slightly.
1:23
You are all driving some form of classic
1:28
Whether it's the absolutely monstrous
1:30
Quattro or the Nibble 205, pair them
1:33
with a driver and co-driver and you can
1:35
straighten out any road.
2:02
We have multiple surface changes off
2:04
this route from loose surfaces to grippy
2:06
asphalt. Make sure you're dialed in
2:09
before you put your foot down.
2:27
Okay, day trippers, we have our most
2:29
technical road section ahead. Have fun,
2:31
but keep to the road at all times.
2:51
Now, let me guess why you're all here.
2:54
We've all seen Initial D, and as a
2:56
result, we've all wanted to spend some
2:57
time on Mount Hina in some sort of
2:59
iconic car. As long as it's capable of
3:02
handling the snaking turns.
3:04
I don't know about you, but if I see a
3:07
retro classic, I always stop and have a
3:09
look. Soak in the nostalgia.
3:12
That nostalgia coupled with Malhadina
3:15
might be the ultimate driving experience
3:16
here in Japan. Look at us. Come on. One
3:21
of the most iconic cars among us is the
3:23
Ford Escort RS1800 Mark II, dominating
3:27
rally across the world between 1975 and
3:33
In 1979, it had even more success,
3:36
outperforming the rest of the teams by
3:38
an insurmountable margin during the
3:40
world's most prestigious rally
3:42
competition. You are good to speed up a
3:44
bit on this section. We have some long
3:46
straits and sweeping corners to enjoy.
3:49
You come to Mayagal's day trips for two
3:51
things, the best cars and epic views.
3:54
Now you're driving cool cars and just
3:58
taking that view. I aim to deliver.
4:33
All right, we brought you some retro
