Every car race battle in this scene uses the Eurobeat music as the soundtrack. Eurobeat is the best music to accompany you when driving. This soundtrack from this anime scene always makes me smile when driving and reminds me of the anime scene it came from.

Episode Context

Pure, undiluted racing adrenaline from start to finish. Battle Stage 2 is a feature-length compilation that strips away exposition and character drama to deliver nothing but the white-knuckle touge showdowns of Project D's campaign. Expect relentless pacing. Takumi Fujiwara and Keisuke Takahashi tear through mountain passes back-to-back with upgraded CGI that makes every drift, gutter run, and hairpin feel visceral. The iconic Eurobeat soundtrack drives the energy to near-exhausting heights. This isn't a narrative experience; it's a celebration of Initial D's racing identity built for purists who want the battles concentrated and uninterrupted. The real draw beyond the compilation format: two previously un-animated battles featuring Keisuke against fresh opponents, delivering genuinely new high-stakes content that fans of the manga have been waiting to see brought to life.
