Joyful Racing.
Racing isn’t always just about speed and performance. It’s also about fun and style, friendship and freedom. Japan’s vintage racers are celebrating precisely this spirit of racing. In the metropolis of Tokyo, Joy Lewis meets customizer Daisuke Mukasa and his Curry Speed Club. She rides her R nineT Racer through the megacity and heads out to lonely mountain roads near Mount Fuji and a vintage motorcycle race at Fuji Speedway.

Tokyo is justifiably touted as the secret capital of the world. That’s because the megacity has much more to offer than temples and tamagotchi. Vintage lover Joy Lewis hits the streets of Japan on her R nineT Racer. Her tour takes in garishly lit skyscrapers, urban motorways and narrow alleyways as she discovers the sights of this lifestyle metropolis and meets Tokyo’s renowned customizers and vintage racers.
