Chapter 31: To Save or Not to Save?
This competition involves the question of whether Xiao Wu and Jiawen can win three consecutive championships, and the sons and daughters of wealthy families have invited people to snipe at them.
So the drivers need to be identified so that the famous racers don't end up.
Lu Chen also knew this, and when the inspectors came over, he took off the competition helmet and let the other party take the detection tool to identify him.
"Di, the current inspector, Lu Chen, male, 22 years old, a freshman in the mecha department of Tianxing Academy."
The red light swept over and sent out a synthetic electronic female voice, informing all of Lu Chen's identity information.
The expressions on Jiawen and Xiao Wu's faces did not change in the slightest, obviously they had known this for a long time.
In fact, this matter is also due to Sun Yan, Jiawen has been paying attention to Sun Yan's dynamics, not because he likes Sun Yan, but because he is very afraid of this woman, this woman has been looking for trouble with him since she came to Hit.
That day, when he learned that Sun Yan had taken Lu Chen and Zhang Yue to Tianxing Academy in advance, he was almost crazy with joy, and he drank with Xiao Wu to celebrate that night.
The other racers also accepted their identification one after another, two of them were also students of the mecha department of Tianxing Academy, and the rest were students of the mecha department of Cangyue Academy.
Seeing this scene, these wealthy families laughed out loud, and they all thought of going together.
In addition to those famous racers, only the students of the mecha departments of the two major academies of the empire are the best choice.
Generally, the three-phase data of the body of the mecha students is extremely good, and the reaction speed alone can give the racer superior to ordinary people, and the excellent physical strength and extraordinary endurance can also add a lot of points to his performance.
The rally starts on a single grid, with a total of 12 drivers, 12 navigators, and a total of 24 people participating in the rally.
Lu Chen belongs to the seventh starting space, and he still likes this number, because his birthday is related to seven.
As for why it wasn't twenty-five, it was because Lu Chen and Jiawen persuaded Xiao Wu to go down, although the back seat of the car was also a safety seat, it lacked a corresponding fast seat belt, so it couldn't protect his safety at all.
No one can guarantee that Lu Chen will not be in any danger when participating in the race, once the car rolls over, Xiao Wu, who is sitting in the back seat, is likely to be thrown out of the seat, which alone is very dangerous.
With the last thirty seconds left on the LED display, Lu Chen had already warmed up the car and made all the pre-race preparations, he and Jiawen silently stared at the numbers on the display, watching it change little by little.
“03”
“02”
“01”
The moment the LED display reached 00, Lu Chen stepped on the accelerator and quickly galloped on the racing track.
It only took 7 seconds for Lu Chen to reach the maximum speed of the car, and when he saw the first corner, Lu Chen rushed over without hesitation.
A handsome drift caused the car to rush through the corners with minimal amplitude, and the back of the car suddenly became dusty and almost half of the car was covered by dust.
Next was a straight gravel road, Lu Chen chose full fuel, and the car drove more than 20 kilometers to complete the first section of the race.
This section of the road is used to warm up the racers, and there are some small corners in between, but it is not a big problem for everyone.
The next leg of the race is a dense small curve, which is called a deceleration angle in standard terms, which is used to reduce the speed of the car, and this section of the race tests the ability of the competitors to control the car.
Lu Chen's performance in this section was extremely good, due to the reminder of the navigator Jiawen, he was prepared early, the speed of the car did not drop too much, and the wonderful continuous drift made Jiawen's eyes shine, making him more and more convinced of Lu Chen's superb skills.
After this section of the corner, Lu Chen saw an unlucky two guys stopped on the side of the road in frustration, and even though the racer stepped on the accelerator frantically, the car still refused to move for a point.
After Jiawen's explanation, Lu Chen understood that the guy had burst the cylinder, and the racer had blown the car out in order to tap the extreme potential of the car, and now he was disqualified from the race and could only let the safety car tow them away.
Fifteen minutes later
Lu Chen drove the car to the most exciting middle of the race, and then they will face the mountain road of Xiwei Mountain, and the lap of the mountain track is a great test of the runners' ability to corner, as well as to deal with various unexpected situations.
This is because rocks that have fallen from a hill or a car that has stopped on the road due to a breakdown can make the race more difficult for the driver.
Lu Chen's spirit is highly concentrated on this section of the road, which is much more dangerous than most of the curves in the city, many of which are more than 90 degree curves, and even a few hairpin corners (usually 180 degrees hairpin-like curves).
This kind of curve is very demanding for the runners, even if there is a reminder from the navigator, it is an extremely difficult test for the runners, and if they are not stingy, they will rush off the track and run onto the rocky mountains, resulting in damage to the car.
Disqualification is a trivial matter, the most serious being a rollover, and although each car is equipped with a roll cage, it is still difficult to ensure the safety of the runners.
Lu Chen drove two kilometers without anything happening, he cautiously stared at the road in front of him, once there was any problem, he could react as soon as possible, so Lu Chen drove three kilometers safely again.
Just as Lu Chen lowered his vigilance a little, Jiawen suddenly issued a reminder.
"Be careful, there's a rolling rock slipping ahead."
The boulder was brought down by a competitor who threw his body out of the corner when he passed through the hairpin corner.
Jiawen looked at the car above and couldn't help but sigh secretly, what two lucky guys.
The back half of the car was already dangling, only the front half was still on the track, and it looked like it was going to fall off at any moment.
The two competitors inside pressed their bodies against the front of the car to maintain the balance of the car, and did not dare to open the door and get down.
Because if there is any shaking of the body, it is very likely that the car will fall off the track, and no one can be sure what the result will be.
Jiawen looked at the car in danger, and it was difficult to calm down, he didn't know whether to remind Lu Chen or not.
He knew that the wind tunnel and turbulence generated by the car at high speeds would have an impact on the car on the brink of danger, and it was likely that the car would overturn.
In this case, it is a favor to save people, and it is the duty not to save them, after all, no one owes anyone, and they will definitely arouse the gratitude of the other party if they save each other, but it is very likely that they will miss the championship because of this.
This is a time when human choices are involved.
