Do anyone have information on Shuto Kousoku trial

Do anyone have any background or information on the Shuto Kousoku Trial series?

Ever even heard of it?

[Rezz]

Shuto Kousoku Trial meas "Metropolitan High-Speed Trial"... I think it's a series of movies from the late 80's early 90's where these young guys try to beat records set by an F1 driver on a section of city highway.

I've never seen them, but I had a student fill me in on these videos when he found out I liked cars.

They got away with that? Nutty!

Id love to see that though.

I heard about these ages ago and tracked them down.

First bought Shuto Kousoku Trial MAX, which is kind alike an add-on and a stand alone movie, whcih I am guessing is the latest. I know this one through and through, main car is R33 GT-R and it races or other featred race cars r the JZA70 & JZA80 Supra, MR2 SW20, Z32 300ZX, NSX, and has Keiichi Tsuchiya in it, I luv it.

Its about racing challenges on the jap highways, kinda like the PS2 game, Tokyo Extreme Racer.....

Now then I bouth the series, Shuto Kousoku Trial 1-5.

Watched PART 1 and has an old skyline in it, forget the model, as I am no a skyline knowitall, one older than the R31 I think, its a classic though.....And this one is about beating the times set by F1 racer Nakajima. No racing challenges, obvously the oldest, and a bit boring.

I am to watch the rest as they were just delivered a day ago, I breezed through Part 2, and it has Keiichi Tsuchiya in it, different cast, so I dare say the story does nto link on from part one, and it seems it revolved around an R32 GT-R, but once again like PART1 and unlike MAX, it seems a bit boring.

However MAX is sooo not boring and kills Fast and the Furious and even Legend Of Speed (then again I am a honky movie fan to a degree).

Ill fill in more lata

Ordered Trial 2 and 3 was some nice R32 trackclips with Keichi and some other driver,but that was all .:band:

Not worth spending money, even they are cheap.
