| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I guess Nobu never got over the crash from his first ride on a go-kart ;) doesn't look like he's practiced at all also, what does all this roadwork and muscle training have to do with becoming faster in a go-kart? |
jacobpaige said: also, what does all this roadwork and muscle training have to do with becoming faster in a go-kart? Haha, then am glad they showed it so people will understand. Being a race driver isn't just jumping in the car and going. When you drive for many laps you need stamina and power, you have to be in a good physical condition. They are in an endurance after all. Capeta may not need much because his body is getting trained by the driving he does everyday but Nobu wasn't driving all this time and he needs to get his body in some shape. I imagine the girl ether has a good condition(she seems to be in a tennis club) or she won't go for many laps. Kart isn't much but of course as you rise to faster categories you need to be more and more trained because your body has to endure more g forces and pressure, F1 drivers not only drive but have physical trainers that basically become like family with the hours they spend with them. They train almost everyday for quite a few hours so they can be on top form. Without it their body won't last the distance and especially the neck needs a lot of training because it takes the g forces from the changing directions. A normal person can't do more than 10 laps in an F1 car and he won't even be going close to as fast as an F1 driver would. If his in bad condition he might reach his limit even after 4-5 laps. |
| Sports = requires good physical condition Like Monad said, you can't just jump in a car and go in higher levels. I suppose Nobu hasn't been training much and is more on the technical side. But they can't afford the hospital fees! Aren't they broke? o_o |
| Even with the sponsorship, things are really tough, I guess it wasn't enough. It seems like the race will ha have to wait for Capeta since Shige has collapsed at work, even Nobu is coming down with fever. Naomi is actually a nice kid. |
