Tanktop Racer marches with the Tank Topper Army, a helmet-clad Hero Association member who throws himself into the same fights as the rest of the singlet-wearing brotherhood, from the losing stand against Garou to the later clash with the Forest Tribe.
A protective racer's helmet tops his short-cropped hair, the detail that gives him his name. His build is the usual heavy muscle, dressed in a pale singlet trimmed in dark edging with a bold letter R stamped across the chest.
The manga offers no real window into his character.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
Racer joins the army's hunt for the Hero Hunter, watching Garou drop Tanktop Vegetarian and later both Mumen Rider and Tanktop Master before the whole squad is beaten and hospitalized. He trades blows with Monster Association intruders in the hospital corridors, then, moved by his leader's example, sets off for Z-City to aid the wounded. There he clears survivors from the rubble and joins the swarm on a spent Garou, which Zombieman and King put a stop to. He is present at A-City headquarters when Tatsumaki battles Apollo underground, heading to the lower floors after the alarm. Later he shows for the 37th tanktop meeting, meets recruits Hyottoko, Gasmask Cowboy, and Studless, and rushes with the group to Y-City, where the Forest King nearly finishes them before Genos intervenes. On another occasion he answers McCoy's call to a monster rampaging the Z-City police station, only to arrive after Saitama has already dealt with it. When the giant machine descends on headquarters, he joins the futile push against its drones and stands down once Metal Knight's rebuilding plan is exposed. He fights bare-fisted at close range, favoring the Tanktop Tackle, and holds a license good for engines up to 50 cc.
