Chapter 17: I Like You

The sky was slightly bright, and Mo Shu got up early in the morning unusually.

He habitually turned on his mobile phone, and a WeChat push message jumped into view.

"Mo Shu, I wish you all the best in the first round of the GTCC race, see you on the track!"

The sender of the message was Geng Hua, and Mo Shu gave him a "slightly" expression back, stretched his waist and stretched his body, and sat up from the bed with a grunt.

"Brush!"

Mo Shu stretched out his arms to open the curtains, and the scenery outside the window had a true portrayal of "seeing the mountains at a glance".

"Wow! The cityscape of Floating Harbor is truly worthy of its name! ”

Fugang City, the world's super first-tier city, the second largest metropolis in China, and the economic and cultural center.

The second round of the 2017 GTCC National Touring Car Championship is about to take place here, and the Floating Port International Circuit, located on the southern outskirts of the city, is one of the most difficult circuits in the world to complete.

The GTCC is a 30-lap car, with a lap length of 5.188 kilometers and a total track length of 155.64 kilometers, with 13 corners of varying difficulty, making it a driver's nightmare.

The official race days are the last three days of the week, with Friday practice and Saturday qualifying.

At 3 p.m. on Sunday, the much-anticipated GTCC Grand Prix will kick off, with the country's top teams and drivers coming together to compete for the title of Floating Harbor Grand Prix.

The competition between the two major GTCC teams, Jiangbei Citizen and Kunsheng Racing, is bound to be an important highlight of this race, and the stellar team, as a rookie, is about to make its debut in the GTCC arena.

In the last race, the first round of this year's GTCC, the number one driver of the Kunsheng team, Zhao Yibin, nicknamed "Black Mirror", won by a landslide and won valuable points for himself and the team.

At this Fugang Station, another veteran powerhouse, the Jiangbei Citizen Team, will send their newly promoted rookie, the young driver Geng Hua, known as the "racing super genius", to compete.

Although Mo Shu defeated Geng Hua by a narrow margin in the Nanshan City Trials, and the two became friends who cherished each other, but on the track, no matter how close friends are, they will also face a showdown.

What's more, during the selection competition, Geng Hua's car was suspected to have been manipulated inexplicably, and Mo Shu always thought that he would not win that time.

Now Geng Hua's car should have been tuned to the best condition, and Mo Shu was already ready to move, he was eager for a dignified duel.

In Friday afternoon's practice session, Mo Shu and Wang Yining both took part in the test drive track, after all, it was their first time participating in the competition, and they needed to experience for themselves how the new vehicle performed in terms of downforce, gearbox, handling and top speed on this extremely difficult track.

After gaining track experience, they will give feedback on their feelings about the car to the team's chief engineer, giving valuable advice on how to fine-tune the car's performance parameters perfectly to the road conditions.

"Uncle Zhang, I feel that the car is in good shape, let's brush it again later, it looks like the race time is enough for me to have a lap, and the current Black Mirror is 0.5 seconds faster than me." Mo Shu returned to the Pit room and saw Zhang Aimin wandering around leisurely.

"Hahaha, don't tell me, I can be my boss well, and the position of team manager will be handed over to Wang Yu in the future, and of course he will also be the track engineer." No wonder Zhang Aimin seemed to be a no-brainer, and then he laughed and said: "You are all young people, easy to communicate!" Haha! ”

Looking at Zhang Aimin's back swaying away, Mo Shu sighed in his heart, Lao Wang is a model of high IQ in his heart, a high-achieving student who graduated from a famous university majoring in vehicle engineering, and was the president of the student union back then.

"What's the fun of sitting there by yourself?" Wang Yining also returned, she was in excellent shape today, ranking third in the practice round, ranking ahead of Geng Hua for the first time.

Mo Shu grinned and said with concern: "How is the condition of the car?" ”

"Everything works!"

"Then you can rest, I'll brush it around the black mirror again, and touch his bottom by the way."

Because the track has many corners and the top speed should not be too fast, Mo Shu deliberately asked the crew technicians to reduce the downforce of the car, and the speed balance focuses on acceleration, and the handling is also biased towards oversteer.

"Engineer Wang, are you in place? I'm ready to run my second lap! Mo Shu teased.

"Ahem, Mo Shen, I've been waiting for a long time, please stay focused, make sure to raise the tire temperature to perfection on the exit lap, grip is the most important thing on this track."

“OK!”

Sure enough, there is less generation gap, and communication between peers is more efficient and smooth.

Mo Shu and Wang Yu even chatted and joked in the team's newsletter from time to time.

Half a lap down, Mo Shu's time was actually nearly 1 second ahead of Black Mirror.

Zhang Aimin couldn't help but smile wryly and shook his head on the side, sighing again and again that "times have changed"!

"Mo Shu, try to go as fast as possible, maybe we'll be on the headlines of the racing homepage tonight!" Wang Yu's way of encouragement is indeed tempting.

The performance of the new vehicle is surprisingly good, and Mo Shu clearly feels that the excellent performance and stability brought by the racing are advantages that those original cars, and even some original supercars, cannot achieve.

Especially in those corners that have fascinated Mo Shu, he has completely abandoned the drifting technique, relying on a perfect racing line, and the sharp brakes and accelerators when entering and exiting the corner, conquering the unbeatable track of the floating port station.

"Cow break! Fastest lap! ”

When Mo Shu rushed past the last timing point, all the staff in front of the command console raised their arms and shouted.

This is definitely a super perfect start for the Stellar team, and it is also a perfect response to the slap of those who questioned them, the little shame at the press conference is vivid, and everyone is looking forward to Mo Shu to make a beautiful comeback for this big family.

Mo Shu returned to the Pit room, and the atmosphere of the scene made him a little trance.

It's like winning the annual championship, a sea of jubilation.

"Calm... It's just a practice match, and the main game can tell the story. Mo Shu said indifferently.

"Alright... Cry if you want to cry, laugh if you want to laugh, everyone is temperamental, happy for your results..."

Mo Shu was still as calm as ever, in order not to spoil everyone's interest, he still patiently coaxed everyone for a while, and then found an opportunity to sneak away.

"Brother Mo Shu, congratulations on your victory!" A girl in the driver's tunnel said angrily, Mo Shu didn't need to look at it to know that it was Wang Qing.

"Wang Qing, are you here with the team? How did I not know? ”

"Brother Mo Shu, I came here by myself, I have something to say to you!" Wang Qingshui's big eyes were still full of worship.

"Hey, silly girl, don't you just make a phone call, and you have been here for a long time, since you are here, I will ask your brother to arrange a lounge for you, and after the game, let's go eat something delicious..."Mo Shu said as he turned back to find Wang Yu.

Unexpectedly, Wang Qing suddenly raised the decibel and said loudly.

"Brother Mo Shu! I like you! Would you like to be my boyfriend?! ”
