IGPX Episode 4: The Ghost
Original Japanese title: Under the Name of the Emperor
After the stunning victory against Team Black Egg, Team Satomi takes a little time off to prepare for the next race against last year's IG-1 champions Team Velshtein. Takeshi bumps into Cunningham, but will knowing Cunningham a little more give Takeshi the ability to beat him? And how will Team Satomi really match up against the entire Team Velshtein once out on the track? This episode features a closer look at the IGPX race track, and Sir Hamgra -- leader of Team Velshtein.
