and he's going to continue to be, since he was already so far behind. on the plus side, he improves a bit more along the way, learning how not to crash directly into things-- though he still kinda sucks at turning quickly and doesn't quite get around to really stepping on the gas.
even so, he looks satisfied at the end of that first race.]

[it's HARD when he's getting YELLED AT BY A TEEN
but when the game plonks his car back on the road, he thankfully has figured out how to steer better.
he has not figured out how to race and is just kind of driving along, still overcorrecting the wheel but no longer just running right into things.]

-I see. So this is like a battle with vehicles, is it?
[now it all makes sense. following the track presents some extra difficulty, but at least now he gets that it's actually, you know, a race.
all hope of catching up is still pretty lost by now, but that gets him to focus more.]

but he points to where on the screen it tells you your current position ]

That was... surprisingly interesting, actually.
[once he figured out how it worked, thanks taka]
Shall we try again?

he goes to start another game. ]
