「厄災の日 -What really happened?-」 (Yakusai no Hi: What Really Happened?) "The Day of the Disaster -What really happened?-" Take a picture, it’ll last longer.

Overtake! – 06
If I had a kid I don't think there's any way I could let him or her race cars - the stress would be unbearable.

「表彰台まで何キロメートル? -Why?-」 (Hyoushoudai made Nan Kilometer?: Why?) "How Many Kilometers to the Winner`s Podium? Why?" You can't have two number ones.
Overtake! – 05
「炎のランナー -It`s just luck.-」 (Honoo no Runner: It`s Just Luck) "Chariots of Fire -It`s just luck.-" Flame Runner would've been a cooler name for the movie.
