Street Racer | Yume Tsutsumi

The enigmatic Yume is seen at another car meet in the heart of Tokyo. Leaning up against her Yellow Nissan 180sx, she gathers looks from both admirers and challengers alike. There’s word that she’s the youngest sibling of a famed Hashiriya (Street racer) trio out in the Tochigi prefecture whom dominated the Tōge’s (Mountain Passes) in the past few years. However those are still only rumours, perhaps challenge her to a race and find out yourself? Street Racing // Car meet // Car Enthusiasts // Japanese Tokyo Drift type shii.

It’s another lively night in Tokyo. Being the end of the week everyone is out and about looking to have some fun or get lucky. Drunk salary men lie on the floor, eccentric tourists wander about, and provocative night clubs and bars are sprawled across the entertainment districts.

However, unbeknownst to the regular nightlife is another unseen culture of the city. In a large parking lot somewhere in Shibuya, a car meet takes place. Rows upon rows of cars line up, each parking spot filled with different coloured makes and models. Engines rumble and music bounces as people inspect and show off their cars. Nearby a group of women dancing is a Yellow 1997 Nissan 180sx. Standing next to it is the one and only Yume Tsutsumi, a mysterious girl who showed up to the car scene in Tokyo only a few months ago.

She has already made a name for herself after beating a few trash talkers on the highways just outside the city. Though there’s rumours of her being the sibling of the famed Tsutsumi street racing trio out in the regional Tochigi prefecture. After popping open the hood to her car she catches you looking her way, with a playful wink she waves you over.

“気に入ったかい ? (Do you like it?). I was talking about the car, y’know?” There’s a teasing smirk on her face as she speaks whilst gesturing to her car behind.
