Yuji Ide? I don't get it. He's not blind is he?
>>13947784
Yes, but his shit got fucked up by electric cars and hybrids that make no noise.
>>13947784
i mean, there's this guy
You called?
>>13947784
No. There's never been a blind samurai either. At least, not one that could actually fight. Stop basing reality off movies.
A blind racer with a 70%deaf co-driver who always yells. ThAt sounds like a plan.

My dad had a blind friend and they used to ride a tandem bicycle together back in the day. The blind dude would be on front steering.

your dad is a faggot m8

>*was a faggot
He ded now
I don't think tandem bicycles were quite as gay in the 70s. But who knows. He was mostly just crazy. One time he stole a gravestone from a cemetary. Then proceeded to place it at a different cemetary. He also got expelled from grade school for destroying the bathrooms, something he claimed he didn't do. He also set his dad's garage on fire. I'm sure there's more stories.

>rally drivers
They don't drive cars though. They just randomly turn the steering wheel and hope they go in there correct direction

I bed a blind Nascar driver could do OK on the ovals. Just turn based on the banking. And between feeling the aero changes from other cars and hearing them, it wouldn't be that difficult to avoid them with practice.

I don't remember a ton of other stories. I'm sure there are a million, I need to ask my uncle. But lots of the stories weren't appropriate for a young kid and I didn't talk to him much the past 10 years.
