Dash! Yonkuro[]
Kinjirou Sabu and his Solitude (Before upgrade).
Originally appeared as Solitude (ソリチュード), the car was created using the design left by Genkuro Hinomaru. The car has the reaction control gyros in which stabilizes the car and even allows it to jump on water surface. In some ways, it is a sister car to Momotaro's Crimson Glory.
Later, Kinjirou, with the help of the black-suited men, figures out what's the missing part of Genkuro's FM design is and upgraded his car into Aero-Solitude. The upgraded Solitude contains the oil bath wet clutches.
The Aero-Solitude was eventually damaged severely when Kinjirou used his car as a shield to protect Yonkuro and Reppu from a bullet fired by Kurofuku during the final stage of the hell caravan race.
