Yamato's glad that ship waited until they were out of the first obstacle section to kick those engines into high gear -- that wobbly steering would have got them killed otherwise.
As it is, though, they've pulled ahead of him and shunted him back down to eighth place, and he doesn't plan on letting that stand.
He gives the afterburners a quick burn, surging forward until he's flying alongside that ship, then slowly inching ahead until he's ahead of them, even if he is aware of them nipping at his heels.
The course veers upwards now, into its ascent towards the upper atmosphere, and he swings about sharply to start flying straight up.
