So get a load of this, right.

It's Tokyo Reverse, a 2 lap Classic race. I'm in my Hommage, armed with a Nitro-Starter and Tuning Kit. One of my opponents is in a SLK SE, about 25 rank points higher, going triple-boosted. All the other racers are in low to mid-end A-Class cars.

Unfazed, I accept the challenge. The race starts with me knocking down the SLK SE and doing the whole 1st lap without a hitch, but by the start of the 2nd lap the SLK SE has caught up. I then start drifting left and right to allow the SLK SE to pass, but it has other ideas.

No doubt it wants revenge for what I did to it earlier. We drift side by side until clearing the Rainbow Bridge, at which point the SLK SE is right on my ass and ready to execute an attack from behind. My Nitro bar is almost empty, and it seems all hope is lost ... for a moment.

But surprise, surprise, a troll in a Sesto is heading straight for us, coming from up ahead. I could potentially become the filling in that 3-car sandwich pile-up, but somehow Ultra Instinct reflexes kick in and I dodge the Sesto at the very last second (on that wide stretch of road before you reach the Mall), resulting in the Sesto running straight into the SLK SE that was right behind me.

Both cars end up wrecked, and I book it away from the scene like a boss and win the race.

Was that pure luck, or what?!
