Description: |
Taira Capeta was a 4th grader boy. He had lost his mother when he had been very little. Although he pretended to be tough in front of his father, actually he felt lonely. One day, his father brought junk parts home from his workplace and made a racing kart. Soon, they went to a circuit to drive the kart. However, Capeta found that its frame was bent and it could hardly run straight. But, with his technique he managed the kart. Furthermore, he followed soon after the fast kart and he could nearly leave it behind. The driver in the kart was Minamoto Naomi, the champion of the East Japan Junior Kart. Looking at their chase, Naomi’s mother, Minamoto Nanako, advised Capeta to take part in the official race.
This manga won the Kodansha Manga Award for shōnen in 2005. |

Watch the Anime. this was originally picked up at volume 11 because that is around the end of the Anime. Then someone decided to go back and do the anime volumes too... The anime doesn't differ much from the manga until the end of it from what I've seen.
moar pls!
Guys i picked this manga back but theres a huge gap after v8c4 what should i do?
Holy shit, this manga is so friggin good, Capeta is not overheated, he's playing mind games, I'm sure
Thank you Deadbeat Scans for the chapter! I was surprised to see it in my list. But what a cliffhanger! Now I can't wait for the next one
Finallyyyy Deadbeat Scans HAS COME BACK with more capeta! As always, Capeta is Excellent. Minamoto being jealous of Capeta's friends is kind of interesting. Capeta and minamoto, each envious of what the other has lol.
Excellent chapter. Thank you for the hard work DeadBeat - Scans
WHEN IS THE NEW CHAPTER COMING UP?DOES ANY ONE HAVE A CLUE.
It's great to finally see the moment that Capeta's rival first truly acknowledged him.
Like, obviously that guy always knew in his heart that Capeta had what it took, but here he's left speechless even with his pride (which usually influences even his internal monologues, when Capeta is involved).
Yes!!!!! Thank you Deadbeat Scans for this chapter! I know nothing about racing, but the realism to this who manga from the racing to the teams, is just awesome.
Woo Hoo! New Capeta chapter!!! I laughed soooomany times during this chapter. Takemori's struggle was awesome. Even at this point in his career, Capeta has financing issues. such is life, but really a great chapter though. Thanks Deadbeat Scans
Thank you for the fast release! It should be my first post in years of reading here :-)
Capeta really rejected sponsors for his team? I only remember he didn't want to switch to Autohouse in the beginning. What sponsors did he reject?
Deadbeat-Scans coming through in the clutch! That was much quicker than I was hoping for, and a great end to the chapter!
More or less knew that would be his decision. After all, he's still the same Capeta that rejected sponsorship for his carting team for years
Thanks for the Chapter! Such a Cliffhanger Ending though! I can't wait to see the next chapter.
THAT CLIFFHANGERRRRR!!!
But THANKS for the UPDATE DEADBEAT SCANS!! MERRY CHRISTMAS and A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU!!(granted that all of you celebrate these holidays.)
Merry Xmas, Deadbeat scans, thank so much TAT the cliff hangers
Merry delayed christmas deadbeat.. hohoho!!! Thanks for the chapter..
Hey someone2040, you mis-uploaded this as volume 21 pt 2 (a second copy) instead of volume 22 pt 2.
Edit: I see you fixed it, thanks.
Thank you for the new chapter! It is always worth the wait even with cliffhangers!!
Unexpected Capeta Chapter is Awesome! Made a Good day even better, but 40 pages never seemed so short!
