089 Tai Mo Shan, Hong Kong Island
Mitsubishi EVO is slowly driving on the streets of Hong Kong Island, and it is good to drive by yourself, so you can control the speed comfortably and experience the cultural scenery on both sides of the street.
To tell the truth, Zhang Yifei has been living on Hong Kong Island for the past few days, basically living a three-point and one-line life, from Uncle Lu's house to the club to the gym, there is no superfluous operation.
Tonight, it can be said that Zhang Yifei has been driving leisurely on the streets of Hong Kong Island for the first time since he came to Hong Kong Island.
Compared with the already good Guangzhou and Shenzhen, the night view of Hong Kong Island is still much stronger, especially the sea view and lights of Victoria Harbour, which are incomparable to mainland cities in this era.
Twenty years can change a lot, and many things on Hong Kong Island are fixed at this point in time, but most cities in the mainland will only have world-class high-rise buildings and brilliant lights after 20 years.
Tai Mo Shan is located at the junction of Tsuen Wan District and Yuen Long District in the New Territories, which is basically a suburban location in mainland terms, and is also the highest peak on Hong Kong Island.
This "peak" is set by the standard of Hong Kong Island, and the actual height is less than 1,000 meters, which may not even be reached by a small hill in the mainland. However, the Tsuen Kam Highway in Tai Mo Shan is the best place for underground drivers to run the mountain road on Hong Kong Island, just like the Aki Ming Mountain in Gunma County.
Because the Tsuen Kam Highway is located in the suburbs, the traffic flow at night is very small, and the entire mountain road is only two-way two lanes, and it is narrow and bends, which requires very high control for the driver, and the slightest accident will hit the guardrail, which is very suitable for mountain road racing.
As Zhang Yifei drove into Yuen Long, even if it was 9 o'clock in the evening, there was no traffic around, which was in stark contrast to the previous scene of the metropolis that never sleeps.
But when Zhang Yifei came to the starting point at the foot of the Quanjin Highway, sports cars began to whizz by, and even Zhang Yifei saw two heavy locomotives racing against each other.
At this point at night, just like Guangshen Qixing Mountain, no passers-by will choose to go up the mountain at this time, and those who can appear here are basically some underground riders.
Zhang Yifei drove along the Quanjin Highway unhurriedly, and at the same time pasted a map on the central control to understand the mountain road. Unlike street racing, the speed of the mountain road is relatively slow, like Zhang Yifei's previous elevated race on Renmin Road in Yangcheng, and the average speed can reach about 140km/h after breaking the record.
However, according to the road conditions of Tsuen Kam Highway, the average speed can reach 90km/h, which can already be regarded as a top driver, and can reach 100km/h, which can be called the god of Tai Mo Shan.
However, low speed does not mean low difficulty, there are many small bends on the mountain road, and Zhang Yifei cannot fully remember it, basically relying on on-the-spot play. What he has to do now is to memorize sharp corners or large-angle curves such as S bends and hairpin bends, so that he can respond in advance when the time comes.
Otherwise, after entering the corner, you will find that it is a large-angle corner, even if Zhang Yifei's driving skills will not have any risk of hitting the guardrail, but the emergency braking will still lose a lot of power, and the gap with the opponent's vehicle will widen, which is to be paid attention to.
It's like an old saying in the car world: no matter how good you are to corner, it's better not to step on the brake and kick the accelerator!
Therefore, Zhang Yifei stopped and walked on the road, marking the serial number on the map with a pen, just like in the go-kart club track, so that the characteristics of each corner can be recorded more clearly and directly, and it can be regarded as a simple version of the road book.
I don't know if it's because Zhang Yifei is stop-and-go, or because a Mitsubishi EVO has attracted the attention of others, just when Zhang Yifei controlled the steering wheel with one hand and recorded the corner with the other hand, there was a restless sound of the exhaust pipe next to him.
A second-generation Mazda MX5 was driving side by side with Zhang Yifei, and a young man was sitting in the car, who was constantly banging on the accelerator, and then set his eyes on Zhang Yifei.
Mazda MX5, compared with other Japanese sports cars in this era, is also quite well-known in later generations, and the possibility of being seen on the street is not low, after all, this is the mainstream of Mazda sports car sales in later generations.
The second-generation Mazda MX5 is equipped with three different power configurations, namely 1.6-liter and 1.8-liter naturally aspirated, and 1.8-liter turbocharged. However, the 1.8-liter turbocharged version will not be available until 2003, so only 1.6-liter and 1.8-liter naturally aspirated versions are available in this era.
Among them, the 1.6L version is a weak chicken with a horsepower of only 110P, and the 1.8L version is much stronger, reaching 140P. But the one next to it is the latest 10th anniversary edition launched in '99, the power has not changed, the gearbox has changed from a five-speed manual to a six-speed, and the rear axle is also equipped with an LSD limited-slip differential lock, and a high-performance Bilstein shock absorber, so that this MX5 is simply double the drift performance.
However, Zhang Yifei heard the sound of the pressure relief valve from the sound, this Mazda MX5 should be equipped with its own engine supercharging, and the power must be more than the original 140P.
Seeing that Zhang Yifei was unmoved, the Mazda MX5 next to him continued to bang the throttle, which is also a way of provocation and appointment in street racing, once the opponent hits the throttle and responds, it means that the race begins.
This year, the young man is really restless, and he wants to race when he sees a car?
Zhang Yifei muttered in his heart, still unhurriedly marking on the map with a pen, he no longer had the urge to race on the streets, and this kind of provocation could not make him go.
It stands to reason that if the other party does not respond on the street, it means that they do not want to fight, and the provocative party will drive away on their own to find the next opponent. As a result, I don't know if this kid thinks Zhang Yifei is a bully or because he is blocked by slow driving, and he actually rolled down the car window.
"Hit the street, slow on the road like a turtle crawling, drive slowly, don't buy a sports car to block the road, you know?"
If it is a congested road in the urban area, Zhang Yifei may really block the road and affect others by walking and stopping like this, but this is a mountain road with few cars, and the car in front of it is slow enough to overtake at will, and there is no problem at all.
For this kind of hairy boy with "road rage", the level of driving skills is generally at the level of "garbage", so Zhang Yifei doesn't want to deal with it at all.
As a result, I didn't expect that this kid actually kicked his nose in the face, and more importantly, there was always a fly next to him that was banging on the accelerator, which made Zhang Yifei feel very annoyed and affected his memory of the mountain road.
So Zhang Yifei also rolled down the window at this time and responded: "You ran fast, didn't you?" ”
"What, not convinced? Kind of one after another, let me teach you how to drive. ”
"Okay, what if you want to lose?"
"You can do whatever you want, I can't lose!"
The Aberdeen on the other side is very arrogant, maybe he thinks that Zhang Yifei was very cowardly before, and he has never seen it, so he will not be a master.
"Let's get started."
Zhang Yifei didn't talk nonsense, closed the window and stepped on the accelerator, which was completely different from the previous slow posture, Mitsubishi EVO made a violent roaring sound, and the surging power emerged at once, and a start directly killed the Mazda MX5 next to him.
Looking at the MX5 that was thrown into the rearview mirror in an instant, Zhang Yifei's face was full of disdain, he drove a car with more than 100 horsepower this year, just because he could be like Fujiwara Takumi, take the Corolla (AE86 prototype is the famous Toyota Corolla) This kind of grocery car to win all kinds of masters and become the god of autumn mountain cars?
Even if it is as strong as the autumn name mountain bike god, he only dares to drive downhill mountain roads under the condition of horsepower disadvantage, this kid runs uphill with his Mitsubishi EVO, it is really a brain watt!
