Surprisingly, she appeared in the crowd shots more than she appeared on the course! Apparently she had (mechanical?) trouble with her JXZ100 Cresta so she struggled to drive at a competitive pace. I had seen a few posts about this Hyperdrive beforehand on Instagram – namely from Kisa Awano whom I thought would make a major appearance and was one of the main reasons why I wanted to watch Hyperdrive in the first place.
Kisaragi Awano – whom I first heard about Hyperdrive from and whom I wanted to see driving the most, made an appearance of only a few seconds! If you think of American ninja and just place the competitors in cars, you have Hyperdrive. It’s got the same style of battle formatting, annoyingly hyped-up commentary that you cringe at 99% of the time, dazzling light shows and same overall dramatized feel to it all. It’s been likened to a “drifting meets American ninja” type of competition TV series – and I fully understand why. Netflix released their original competition series Hyperdrive on August 21 2019. Hyperdrive – a competition TV series by Netflix where cars race and drift through an obstacle course! Car in pictured above is Aaron Parker’s RX7 which was a competitive car and driver in the first season.
