If you're familiar with rallying, you'll be familiar with Mitsubishi EVO.

Because it has won the WRC championship for four years in a row.

For the professional racers of that era, EVO was a monster of exaggerated performance.

For the fans of this era, it has a very pure racing pedigree, which is their belief.

If the driver who won the championship is the god of the car, then the Mitsubishi EVO that accompanied the god of the car to win the championship is the god car.

In fact, Mitsubishi EVO is indeed a god car, and it can even be said to be a representative model of Japanese high-performance cars.

Its pure rally pedigree and near-limitless potential for modification have cemented its status as a god car in the hearts of fans.

The ninth-generation EVO is not the last generation EVO, but in the case of the reverse upgrade of the tenth-generation EVO, the ninth-generation EVO can actually be regarded as the last generation.

More than ten years ago, the original price of four or five hundred thousand yuan could be bought for the ninth generation of EVO, now the car is in better condition, in the second-hand market can also be sold for four or five hundred thousand, if with some regional license plates, even the price can rush to six or seven hundred thousand or even higher.

In the second-hand market, this car is one of the few cars that is more and more valuable.

At this time, Xiao Ning, who was sent by Red Bull to pick up the airport all the way to Hukou Town, was looking forward to the ninth generation EVO modified by Red Bull in the car.

Yes, except for the original car of the ninth-generation EVO that he saw when Huang Mao sent the car over that day, he hadn't seen this car for a few days later.

He didn't know exactly what it had changed.

Not long after the car drove down the main road in town, he finally met his car for the challenge in a garage.

A nineth-generation EVO that has been remodeled by Red Bull in a short period of time, and it can even be said that it has been armed to the teeth.

After John, who had been waiting here early, shook hands with Xiao Ning, he walked directly to the car and lifted the black car cover.

The pure white nine-generation EVO appeared in Xiao Ning's eyes.

Small, short.

But Xiao Ning knew that once this thing was activated, it would definitely be a hard stubble!

Bang hard!

While Xiao Ning touched the exterior of the car with his hand, John introduced the work of their team in the past few days.

"Xiao."

"When we were planning the construction of the site, we had already stepped on the vicinity of Hukou Waterfall and made measurements."

"The distance between the two sides of the strait is 55.5 meters."

"Although there is a shorter route at Hukou Waterfall, the shortest is more than 30 meters, there is no straight section on both sides of the river at that location for acceleration, and it is difficult to create a straight road for acceleration in a short time."

"So we chose the 55.5-meter road, and my deputy should have called you before."

Xiao Ning gently patted the hood of the ninth-generation EVO and nodded at John: "I know this." ”

Although the deputy had already conveyed Xiao Ning's meaning on this matter before, John still confirmed again: "Xiao, you have no problem with this distance, right?" ”

Xiao Ning made an "OK" gesture: "Go on, I need to know about the situation of this car." ”

John nodded, and then said: "To complete the leap, it is definitely not possible to rush directly from the shore, so we need to build an artificial jumping platform, and the construction of the field has actually been completed now, and the final step of inspection is already being done." ”

"The so-called leap, in fact, it is a kind of flat throwing motion, as long as the initial velocity out of the jumping platform is large enough, then the X-axis of the car can be displaced, will be greater."

"Depending on the actual challenge position, our engineers ran the simulation many times with the computer, taking into account factors such as air resistance."

"In order for the car to soar 55 meters in the air, the starting speed of the car out of the jump must be greater than 150 kilometers."

"Because the acceleration section of the selected route is actually not too short, the engine horsepower does not need to be particularly large, but we decided to pile up the horsepower of this car to be on the safe side."

"However, because it was too late to purchase some parts, and the full modification of the engine could not be carried out in all directions due to time constraints, we took a more compromise plan, and after completing the basic horsepower tuning, we installed a nitrogen acceleration system, or NOS, on this car."

As soon as John finished saying this, Xiao Ning, who was drinking water, almost sprayed water on John's face in one gulp.

Nitrogen acceleration system is OK......

But......

Actually, it's okay.

It is indeed a wise choice to install NOS if the existing conditions cannot continue to pile up horsepower.

After all, some drag races often use nitrogen accelerators.

There's nothing esoteric about how the nitrogen acceleration system works, it simply puts nitrous oxide in a cylinder that has been formed into a liquid state at high pressure and injects it into the engine when needed.

Nitrous oxide decomposes into oxygen and nitrogen at high temperatures, with oxygen acting as a combustible gas and nitrogen assisting in cooling.

Injecting nitrous oxide while the engine is in working condition can increase the combustion integrity of the fuel, thereby increasing the engine power to achieve the purpose of increasing power.

In the absence of time for an overhaul of the engine, adding a nitrogen acceleration system is indeed the most hassle-free.

That is, if you move a little inside the engine and install a nozzle, there are multiple cylinder solenoid valves outside, and the weight will not be too much.

After putting away the accident in his heart, Xiao Ning continued to pick up the water and drink, John on the side didn't pay attention to Xiao Ning's reaction just now, and continued to talk at this time.

"We replaced the sequential gearbox ......"

"According to the parameters simulated by the computer program, if you jump at a predetermined speed, the distance from the ground when you fall will be ...... To be on the safe side, we replaced the suspension of this car with a ......"

"In order to ensure that the counterweight and simulation software parameters are consistent, we ...... in this regard"

After John had slowly explained almost everything, Xiao Ning had a good idea of the car's condition.

Although according to John, the horsepower of this nineth-generation EVO that they have changed has not even exceeded 1,000, and it is not even as good as the previous version of the AE86.

But in reality, the car cost much more to modify than that AE86.

After John finished the introduction, Xiao Ning did not choose to open the door and start the car for a test drive as soon as possible, but leaned down and touched the suspension of the car with his hand.

According to John, the suspension used in this ninth-generation Mitsubishi EVO is already a top-of-the-line racing suspension.

"It's all money...... Xiao Ning touched a hand of oil, and then sighed in his heart: "What's the matter!" Red Bull is so rich! ”

Different people have completely different opinions on how good a car is.

Ordinary people who don't understand cars often stay on whether the car looks good or not.

Ordinary people who know a little bit about the quality of cars will stay on the brand of Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi Civic.

Ordinary people who know more about cars have a good or bad concept of a car, and they stay at what the engine is, what AMG is and what kind of machine is one person and so on.

And the fanatical car enthusiast's concept of good or bad cars is suspension.

If a car's suspension system is very awesome, then this car is undoubtedly absolutely awesome!

According to John, the suspension price of this ninth-generation Mitsubishi EVO is enough to buy a house in some second-tier cities in Longguo.

One set of suspension, one suite!

I have to say.

Red Bull is very rich indeed.

If Xiao Ning is asked to pay for this at his own expense, even if he has tens of millions, he will definitely save money in terms of cost, as long as the hardware is enough.

But Red Bull means that you don't buy it and use it, you can buy it if you want to buy it, and it's expensive and usable.

"It's really Nyima who is willing to do it!"

Xiao Ning, who sighed in his heart, had already wiped his hands and put on gloves at this time.

Got into the car and started the car.

The exhaust sound of the engine is particularly pleasant.

Compared with the thousand-horsepower 86 that was blown up before, the engine of this car is not so irritable, but much more restrained.

However, Xiao Ning knows very well that this kind of convergence only looks convergent.

After all, at the accelerator pedal of this car, there is also a start switch that controls the nitrogen acceleration system.

If it was an ordinary town, Xiao Ning really didn't have a place to test it.

But because there are tourists here in Hukou Town all the year round, the place is still quite large, and the road is quite wide.

The Red Bull team had already found him a closed road where he could try his hand at the car a little.

Driving this redundant ninth-generation EVO on such a road, Xiao Ning's experience is quite novel.

Although this car weighs much heavier than the AE86 that has been remodeled, it doesn't actually feel heavier to drive.

Because of the very short wheelbase, Xiao Ning even feels very light.

After trying back and forth for more than half an hour after such an ordinary driving on the closed road, Xiao Ning stopped the car and took the Red Bull handed by the Red Bull staff next to him.

After taking off his helmet and taking a sip of Red Bull, he gave John a thumbs up: "The car is good, it must be enough." ”

That night, Xiao Ning stayed directly at a hotel in Hukou Town.

According to the Red Bull team's plan, tomorrow they will have fully completed the construction of the challenge field, including the acceleration area, jumping platform and so on.

However, this does not mean that Xiao Ning will be able to start the challenge tomorrow.

Because although they have asked professionals to submit the relevant matters of this challenge to the local authorities for review, the relevant departments have only verbally agreed and allowed them to build the venue, and have not officially issued documents to them.

It will take a day or two to really challenge it.

After all, the relevant departments do not work on weekends.

It's past eight o'clock in the evening.

If it was in Jiangcheng, although Xiao Ning had always gone to bed early and got up early, this time was still too early for him.

However, although Hukou Town is a tourist attraction, it is completely dependent on Hukou Waterfall, except for going to see the waterfall during the day, in fact, there are not many other things to play.

Not to mention at night.

Xiao Ning in the hotel room didn't know what to do, so he simply decided to sleep.

As soon as he had the idea of sleeping, someone from Red Bull's side called him.

"Mr. Xiao, there is an unexpected situation."

"The staff member of the local department who was in charge of contacting us called more than half an hour ago, and he informed us that the challenge plan was estimated to be delayed by half a month."

Half a month later?

Why postpone it for half a month?

Delay it for half a month and challenge a fart!

Xiao Ning frowned and asked, "Did he tell the reason?" ”

"I didn't say why, but we are looking through other channels for details, and the results should be available soon."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Ning, who originally felt that everything was going well, suddenly became a little apprehensive.

Everything is ready, nothing is missing, and in the end, if you get stuck with the local department, you will suffer.

"If there is no room for manoeuvre, I will have to force this challenge to be completed at that time."

After having the worst in his heart, Xiao Ning sighed silently: "However, didn't John say before that they had a good conversation with people, why is this?" ”

"As long as I make the leap, this will definitely make Hukou Waterfall a fire, right? Not to mention those who will come to Hukou Waterfall because of me, just say that this thing itself will make Hukou Waterfall more famous. ”

"Tourists from all over the world, whether it is tourism or visiting, can bring economic benefits to the local area."

"Why is it suddenly postponed now?"

More than an hour later.

Red Bull called Xiao Ning, who was still not asleep at this time.

It was John who called.

"Found it, Xiao!"

"It should be the devil's claw!"

"It is estimated that we leaked plans to fly over the Yellow River before."

"The devil's claw knows what our challenge is about! A few days ago, they brought the world-famous vehicle flying master Visenkin to the Dragon Country! ”

"They want to complete the leap of the Yellow River before us!"

Visenkin?

Who is Wiesenkin?

Xiao Ning didn't know who this person was at all.

However, John said that this man was a famous vehicle leaper, so it sounded like he was definitely a peer.

Xiao Ning didn't specifically ask what to do about this matter, but first asked John, "Is this person very powerful?" ”

"It's really amazing, he's done a lot of challenges."

"We, Red Bull, have sponsored him before."

"But then the devil's claws pried him away."

John said this, with some embarrassment in his tone.

Xiao Ning was indeed happy to listen to it.

He himself is the anti-bone boy who just ran from the hummingbird to play with Xuanji......

This Weisenkin is also an anti-bone boy!

Then, Xiao Ning asked out loud: "According to what you mean, the current situation is that the devil's claws have found some resources such as relationships, and let the relevant departments give priority to them to challenge in order to delay our challenge, right?" ”

John said: "So far, it is. ”

"Xiao, this is a bit difficult."

"The devil's claws are actually better at operating some things in the Dragon Kingdom than our Austrian Red Bull."

"If we are abroad in Europe, then we at Red Bull Austria can definitely crush the claws."

"However, due to the special circumstances of some agreements, our Austrian Red Bull cannot be directly produced and sold in the Dragon Kingdom, and can only be imported ......."

"So in fact, we haven't had a particularly big say on the side of the Dragon Kingdom."

"If the devil's claw really moves the local authorities, I guess we ...... about it."

John didn't finish what he said, but Xiao Ning could hear what he meant.

But.

Shawning, however, didn't entirely think John was right.

"John, I don't think they're necessarily talking about moving the local authorities."

Today is much better, although intermittently still a little feverish.

But...... In the past few days, there have been a lot fewer chasing bookings and monthly passes.,I can understand that it's the update garbage these days, and there are buddies who raise books......

The author will find a way to change the eight thousand words tomorrow......
