Chapter 40: Tokyo Drift (10)

"Oversteer is rarely a problem in a 4WD car, but in a rear-wheel drive car that wants to turn with a flick, the suspension on the front and rear axles has to be upgraded, and the driver has to calculate the factors that maintain traction when cornering." Toru Takeda also sat in the co-pilot's seat.

"This problem is easy to solve, adjust the spring and damping coefficient, adjust the rear suspension, reduce the compression ratio of the shock absorber damping coefficient, improve ductility, reduce the rigidity of the rear balance bar, or increase the rear track, in the formal competition often has restrictions on the wheel base, but the underground game is not so particular.

"In addition, if you find turbulence after completing the configuration, you can consider increasing the angle, which can improve the downforce effect in the rear half of the body, of course, your top speed will also be sacrificed, in the end, there is no such thing as an absolutely perfect car, modified cars are to find a balance between various performances......"

Zhang Heng silently wrote down these words while driving, and ten minutes later, the two arrived at the Tsukiji Fish Market, which was because Zhang Heng tried to slow down as much as possible.

And as soon as L300 arrived at the gate of the fish market, Takeda Tetsuyano immediately closed his mouth, this guy stuck to the previous agreement, didn't want to say a word, pushed open the door and jumped out of the car.

However, after taking two steps, the owner of the aquatic shop stopped for the first time and paused, "Come early this Sunday." ”

Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows, he realized that he was likely to trigger some new plot, because just four seconds ago, he received a new hint, his car driving skills have increased from lv0 to lv1, and at the same time, after a month of study, he also has an additional LV0 skill for modification and maintenance.

So on the third night, Zhang Heng and Ameko took a bus directly to the aquatic product store after shopping in Shinjuku, three hours earlier than usual, and Toru Takeda turned around and closed the door after seeing him, and threw the key into his hand, "The store is closed for a day today." ”

"So where do we go next?"

"By the sea, I'll teach you to drift from today."

Zhang Heng was a little surprised, although Toru Takeda has been instructing him how to race cars and teaching him a lot of skills, but his unique ability to press the bottom of the box has never been revealed, Zhang Heng asked a few times, but he was dismissed by the latter with a sentence You are not qualified enough, but this itself is also an obvious hint that he needs to meet certain requirements first.

It's just that under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible for a zero-based rookie like Zhang Heng to trigger the advanced conditions, he has been learning to drive for more than four months now, and he has long passed the original task period, and he has just met it until yesterday.

Of course, Zhang Heng will not let go of this precious opportunity, Takeda Totsuya is a stingy guy who knows when he changed his attention, if it weren't for the fact that this guy has a D1 Grand PRIX Tokyo Chase Race Champion, or the man closest to the DK title, he would have wanted to consider a different strategy, such as the mysterious senior of the Racer Workshop.

In order to benefit future generations and show the way to more people like him who aspire to become racing drivers, he does not hesitate to disclose his feelings and experiences free of charge.

Zhang Heng felt that with his efforts, he might be able to catch this line, after all, compared with Tetsuya Takeda, the owner of the aquatic shop, the senior is a real racing driver, but after weighing it again, he still gave up.

GT300 belongs to a serious racing competition, the track and the requirements for driving technology are still very different from the underground modified car event, in terms of horsepower, GT300 as the name suggests, the upper limit of horsepower output is 300ps, and the only rule of the underground modified car competition is that there are no rules, no one cares what car you drive, what technology is used, who gets to the end first is the final winner, as long as you are bold enough, even N20 can go up.

He has seen the senior's notes and videos more than once, and the opponent's fierce running style is more suitable for professional tracks, and it is indeed inferior to Tetsuya Takeda, the former champion of the D1 Drift Grand Prix, when dealing with complex environments.

The owner of the fish shop took him to a private dock that was close to abandonment, and built a track with tire rings and cardboard boxes as obstacles.

"Drifting is a kind of driving skill, through deliberate oversteer to make the car slide sideways, today's young people always like to use drift to show off their skills, but in fact, drifting on the normal road will only lose speed and wear out tires, this trick is born to cope with complex road conditions."

Zhang Heng looked at the dense cardboard boxes and tire rings in front of him, "Will it be ...... A little too complicated? ”

"As long as someone can do it, it's not complicated." Toru Takeda also said something that was difficult to refute.

Zhang Heng originally thought that he would come to demonstrate it in person after putting down his rhetoric, but he only sent a demonstration video, and it seemed that it was a few years ago, and then he moved the Maza and fishing rod out of the trunk.

“…………”

"Don't look at me, I swore I would never hold the steering wheel again in my life, but don't worry, the obstacles I set up for you are definitely not impossible."

Toru Takeda said while putting bait on the hook, Zhang Heng first watched the video quickly, and found that he was a little wrong to blame someone this time, probably to make up for the guilt that he couldn't end up in person, but this teaching video is unprecedentedly detailed, except for the actual combat demonstration at the beginning of the previous materials, the latter part is newly recorded by Toru Takeda.

Zhang Heng looked at the things in his hand seven times, and two of them were slow-played frame by frame.

After that, he stuffed his phone back in his pocket, got in the car and began to practice.

Outcome...... Naturally, it was miserable, the pier echoed with the sound of the grinding of tires and the ground, the cartons and tires were staggered, and after this period of practice, Zhang Heng felt that his driving skills had increased significantly, and even gave birth to the idea of completing the main task first with a car.

But the new training poured cold water on him, and although Toru Takeda has never been very reliable, there is no need to deceive him on such a trivial matter, since that guy said that the training can be completed, it proves to be his own problem.

So until the sun rose from the sea level the next morning, Zhang Heng was still struggling with the pile of tire rings and cartons on the ground, and the owner of the aquatic product shop put away the fishing rod, stretched his waist, and glanced at someone, "In the future, the delivery will be the same, and the extra time can come here to practice drifting, so how much time to train is completely up to you, but you can now try to start modifying this L300 by yourself, I will provide you with some suggestions, but you have to do the parts yourself." ”
