Fuji TV's Engine drama

[karekora]

Its a bit old, but I enjoyed watching the TV drama called 'ENGINE' with Kimutaku and Koyuki. I think it was on Fuji TV. Anyone know where abouts in Japan it was set??

Thanks!

Was that one based at a Fire Engine company?

I believe the story was set in & around Tokyo, so that would make the circuit Fuji.
My daughter watched the show & liked it, well she was only 11 at the time. On the other hand I (as an avid racing fan) thought it was a bunch of bunk...the same feeling I had during that other Kimu-taku hit about hockey, Pride I think it was called.

Yeah, its the one where Kimutaku is a racing driver and Koyuki works in the fosters home. heres a link: http://jdorama.com/drama.926.htm

I said it was old as its not on our TVs now and its a question Ive been meaning to ask since it was on >_<

thanks ^^

just in case anyone else in interested, gaijinzilla was correct it was set in and around Tokyo, mainly Machida-shi, Hino-shi and parts of Kanagawa.

Engine wasn't as good as some of the other Kimutaku dramas. The plot line stunk and it seemed like they rushed the entire story in the last episode. Of course, the one Kimutaku drama I really liked was "Good Luck!"
