spill the tofu

v. to drive really, really fast.

The expressing comes from the anime Initial D, where the hero Takumi is under the tutelage of his father, who makes him drive with a cup of water in his car in order to teach him to drive without spilling, since he delivers tofu. However, when he enters a race in the first episode, his father tells him he doesn't need the cup, and can drive as fast as he can.

We're late. I'm gonna spill the tofu.
