After all kinds of knowledge collided with sparks in his mind, Yang Ming's desire for this crazy idea became stronger and stronger!

So he decided to make a big one! As the clues in his head continue to become clear, he needs his own team and friends with common interests!

Ask Jonathan out again the next day. This guy has a wide range of connections in the car and racing world, and he is also a hardcore fan, Yang Ming talked to him about his thoughts again.

"I think the best way to become famous is to race the Nürburgring, climb Pikes Peak, or beat them in the egt (electric event) that Tesla is organizing!"

Jonathan understood: "If you can win against Tesla, the world of racing and supercars will be famous for stepping on the corpse of giants!"

"That's what I thought, so now it's up to the team! I want to start by rebuilding other products, accumulate electric experience, and then the team will design the chassis and the design company will develop the shape ......."

Jonathan is also interested: "In terms of design and R&D teams, you can dig Le Mans or F1, they have the ability to develop independently!"

Digging into the corners of racing teams is also the history of many supercar brands, and they are all formed by this group of fanatics who pursue extreme performance.

After the discussion reached this point, the existing problems were discussed, and it seemed that this joke was about to come true, Jonathan asked, "Have you ever thought about what the name is?"

"I want to use the name of a great god of physics. Yang Ming said.

"Which one?"

"Maxwell. ”

James Clark Maxwell, the god of electromagnetism! Without electromagnetism, there would be no modern electrical engineering, and there would be no modern civilization!

Its influence is only after Newton and Einstein! It also caters to the concept of electric vehicles, and like Tesla next door, both are great gods, and the theme completely echoes.

"And you know?" Yang Ming turned the computer screen to him, "Chrysler, which was once one of the three giants of American automobiles, was formerly a merger of Maxwell Motors and Chalmers Motors. ”

Jonathan wondered: "But what does this have to do with what you said?"

"It doesn't matter. Yang Ming folded the computer and shrugged: "I just want to show that my taste has long been recognized by people, and talents are all on the same frequency of thinking." ”

"Poof!" Jonathan almost didn't spray his coffee in his face, "You're so embarrassed!

"It doesn't matter, I found that Americans also like to engage in fake branding, I, a gringo, have lived here for so long, and I have seen no less than 20 companies with the words "Morgan" and "standard", I thought it was the industry of those tycoons, but I didn't expect that it was actually the boss of the company who also called it, or simply not, they just liked the word. ”

"Haha! Let's do this, I think this logo is pretty good, a circle with an M in the middle...... Later, you add the lightning pattern to the circle, and the design is saved!"

"Great!" Yang Ming agreed with this lazy approach.

Then he asked, "So...... Would you like to join this team that strives for perfection?"

Jonathan's eyes lit up, how could people who play cars never have the idea of chasing the top? It's just that in reality, there are too many restrictions on money and technology, and not everyone dares to do it.

But now Yang Ming said: "I will invest at least 200 million US dollars or more to get this project! Starting with racing cars, I want to build the most extreme, and it will be the strongest car in the next few years!"

"And I don't care about profit and loss, I'm not afraid of failure! Even if I fail, I will be satisfied, and after I succeed, I will have a boast of capital, at least I am a strange person who has built cars and participated in events!"

"OK! I'm joining!" Jonathan's blood is also boiling, life is rare to be crazy, if you don't do it, you will be old!

So they decided to partner up on electric racing!

The name of the company is "Maxwell Company", and it is currently specialized in the field of racing, and has no idea about production and sales for the time being.

To put it bluntly, the rich and rich have nothing to do, and they just want to get an electric car with explosive performance and brush the lap time of the North Ring Road!

Yang Ming decided to invest 100 million US dollars to play first, he accounted for 95% of the majority, the registered company is offshore in nature, and China and the United States will set up a wholly-owned subsidiary by it to facilitate the competition.

What are the benefits, business prospects, and earnings ...... To be honest, Yang Ming never thought that he could make a profit with this money, the purpose was pure!

Purity is also the original intention of many supercar brand founders, there are successes and failures, those who succeed such as Ferrari, and those who fail such as Shijue, but they all leave legends.

Then they discussed the division of labor.

Jonathan is quite familiar with racing and racing, and also has a lot of contacts with professional R&D professionals in the United States, which is why Yang Ming hopes to pull him in.

In terms of core technology, Yang Ming can provide motors, and there are quite a lot of advanced improvement plans in his head, and even more points in the later stage, and he can also change to high-energy batteries!

With so many advantages, he didn't believe that this project couldn't get off the ground! He wanted to make a splash in the automobile industry! Prove that there was once a crazy rich man who did such a powerful thing!

……

They all had the same goal for the first product: it had to be the ultimate in performance, it had to be for breaking records!

First make a name for yourself through the results, then go to the electric event, and finally consider whether to launch a civilian road model, and produce twenty or thirty vehicles a year to satisfy the cravings of car fans.

This is also the development route of many small supercar factories. So the formation of the team was very fast, Jonathan found the right person, and Yang Ming threw down the funds.

Maxwell's proving ground, right next to a race track in Los Angeles, is a big bungalow and a big warehouse, and the team is currently 12 people, two of whom are bosses.

The technicians were dug up by Le Mans' team, and Le Mans's technical level goes without saying, they divided a R8 and a Huracan by two.

"Sure enough, it's the same chassis. Yang Ming compared the two cars.

"The mass's nesting doll artifact. Jonathan smiled, R8 is on the same platform as the Mavericks, and the Mavericks can brush New York North 6 points and 52 points, which has great potential.

"After we change the shell, it will also be very powerful!" Yang Ming wants to use this chassis to test the team.

The idea was to replace it with four electric motors, each responsible for one tyre, and the battery to be placed in the original engine compartment, and then equip it with a racing gearbox.

Although electric vehicles do not use transmissions, because the torque is given to the limit, the transmission can maintain the maximum output of power, civilian cars do not need it, but it is very important in racing!

Then there are the consideration of lightweight, the volume of the gearbox is reduced, and the four electric motors add up, and there will be no weight of a V10 engine, and the battery can continue to be reduced!

Because it is a racing car, it only needs to consider the explosive power and enough to run the whole distance! The whole journey is more than 20 kilometers, and the battery is fully charged, which is enough to run the whole race.

So the ideal figures are more than 2,000 hp and 2,200 Nm of torque, with a top speed of 360 km/h and 100 km/h in 2 seconds.

The motor is typically fast starting and lacking stamina, but adding a transmission and modifying the motor strives to keep 0-200 at about 5 seconds and 0-300 for 10 seconds!

A few years ago, F1 accelerated from 0 to 300 km/h in about 10 seconds!

In the field of civilian sports cars, the Bugatti Veyron, known as the king of straight lines, takes about 15 seconds from 0-300;

To combat the acceleration of its aggressive acceleration and cornering, the roll cage reinforces the bodywork, the chassis suspension is raced to adjust, and the low lying and large rear wing increase downforce...... And so on!
