Whilst Hiro sits back and licks his wounds, maybe we should let him take a step back and just chill in his bedroom with a magazine.

What wise mechanical advice does Hoku have for us today?


: The length of the part of the piston that touches the piston is called the bore.


: This is called a stroke.



Interesting. Hiro is no stranger to the stroke, as evidenced earlier with the Cool Girl video.

Actually, speaking of which, is there anything new to order from the magazine?





A power pendant, huh? Is this jewellery? I wonder if we can use it on a date, or maybe it's a talisman that protects against giant rats, or I could wear it for better luck when racing. At 20,000 yen, how could we lose?


: Well then. Let's call right away.


:phoneb:… Bring bring….



:phoneb: … Bring bring….



:phone:Yes? Holiday shopping.



: I want a Kuon Pendant. It was on the MoshiMoshi magazine.



I double translated the word ‘Kuon’ and it came up as ‘Eternity’ - An Eternity Pendant? Are we going to propose to that girl we gave the bear to?


:phone:It's a gold pendant. Name of the guest, please tell me?



: Hiro-san.


:phone:Okay, in about a week we will deliver it to you. Thank you very much.



: This is fine. I hope it arrives soon!



Well. I guess we’ve got something to look forward to.

At this point I probably should remind everyone that this is a car racing game.
