Somebody left a comment on a "Bat Country" audio video on YouTube about a misheard lyric ad I had to do something about it.

I released a video showcasing the process of me drawing a comicbook-style covers for chapter 6 of my series Circuit C!

Having defeated Keith Tarkovsky, Thomas and his good friend Natalie enjoy a fancy Sunday drive.

Cole Ives (19) (leader) / Nissan 300ZX (Z32) Cole is the fun-loving and optimistic of the six, having co-founded the team with his main man Kenneth and two of their classmates in their final year of high school. His late dad is the main reason for his hyper fixation on racing as a child, having seen IMSA videos on his laptop every day and driving around in an old Nissan he would later inherit. He's more often than not the first one to step up to any rival team even if his crew don't end up winning.

Kenneth Barlow (19) / Nissan 300ZX (Z31) Kenneth is a bit more level-headed, and likely a darker-skinned, older version of Thomas despite being Cole's 'Itsuki Takeuchi' the way Kenji from the Akina Speed Stars was for Koichiro Iketani in Initial D. Aside from Initial D, which is likely the reason he got big into tuner cars in general, he is a huge weeb. Those spectacles and Uchiha Clan shirt should tell you everything you need to know about him.

Cody Jensen (19) / Nissan 350Z (Z33) Cody joined/formed the Speed Stars with Cole and Kenneth having known those two from their high school days together in their junior year. He's a bit quick-witted with a snarky jab or two or a corny (or even dirty) joke and easily enthused, displaying unwavering loyalty to the team even when some of the rest are skeptical of their abilities. Aside from mechanical work as a profession, he's also very good with a skateboard. Currently, he's in community college where he met somebody who got into cars through the same anime and manga that captivated him (no, it's not Initial D) and they, according to him, 'kinda never stopped talking'. 

Terrence "Terry" Stewart (20) / Nissan 200SX (S12) Terrence is the oldest member of the Speed Stars, having joined to become one of the original foursome that stayed as such until about early 2018. Another Initial D fanboy, Terrence displays the same interest in Japanese tuner cars, moreso specializing in drifting (much like somebody else on this team that owns a Nissan S-chassis vehicle) after having watched the original Pluspy tapes featuring Keiichi Tsuchiya that inspired the racing manga/anime franchise. In fact, the only reason he bought a Nissan 200SX (S12) was because he wanted to combine his love for Nissans with his love for the hero car of Initial D; by buying the car that was made to rival said hero car. He can smell trouble at times, but like the other dudes he loves the team even if he considers calling it quits from time to time.

Bruce Jeter (19) / Nissan 240SX 'Onevia' (S13) Bruce is your average black anime enjoyer, but he got into drifting after playing the Noise Bomb organization events in Need For Speed: Prostreet in the seventh grade after having watched the entirety of the first Naruto series a year prior. He learned about the 'Sil80' upon looking into the Need For Speed (2015) game when it released and wondered about how an S13 Nissan Silvia body would look with the front end of the 180SX (RPS13). Lucky for him, he somehow came around a used USDM Nissan Silvia with a 240SX (RPS13) front end, slapped some Nismo LMGT4 rims from his hard-earned pizza delivery money, and started sliding it around Sears Point Raceway (before eventually coming across Kenneth and Terrence at a track day). He's most likely to be seen in something that spells street and swagger, with a little bit of "I grew up with this."
