Drifting is the art of getting cars around corners as quickly as possible through controlled skidding. Mount Akina's tortuous hairpin bends and perilous drops make it a formidable test for even the professional street racers, but the fastest driver of them all is Takumi (Taiwanese pop idol Jay Chou) who has been delivering tofu for his father down that route every night since he was 13. Street-racing gangs hear of a "Racing God" and turn up to challenge him, but he only has eyes for his worthless (and underwritten) girlfriend - until his friends and his alcoholic father can trigger his competitive streak.
Juliet (Rainie Yang) and Watanabe Tsukasa (Duncan) are lovers whose wedding was shattered by the arrival of Xiao Feng (Lee Wei). Feng's only option is to win the racing competition to win the heart of Juliet. Watanabe continuously sabotages Feng and Juliet's relationship, and Feng's relationship with his childhood sweetheart is also strained. The feud between the two families made Juliet and Feng into a modern day Juliet and Romeo, and they are forced to make a decision whether to give up their dreams...
