Take me to the tower
"Come on," Zhong Su said.
Xia Qianshen slammed the accelerator, "No response, shit, my engine is broken? Do I have to retire from the race?"
Zhong Su straightened the crooked gear screen, and the screen faced him, "Because it's neutral now."
"Grass." Xia Qianchen gritted his teeth and cursed, put into gear and returned to the track.
I don't know how the referee's car was injured, but it's always right to run first.Because the safety of the referee's car is the same as that of the racing car, it is better to run first than to be fined on the spot. The car was full of mud and mud during the hard run, in case the referee did not see the car number clearly.
Re-entering the track was delayed by at least 1 minute.
"50 meters to the right, 2, slow down and enter the corner." Zhong Su continued to report the road, "Stay to the pit stop."
Xia Qianchen could feel that when turning to the right, the car needed a very large range to turn right. Presumably, it was because of the collision that it either hit the front toe, or the steering gear was faulty, or the tire calipers were faulty.
Xia Qianshen thought for a while, "The right brake won't work anymore. If there's something wrong with the calipers, we'll lose the brakes soon."
This means that they will be speeding at 170 speeds on icy and snowy roads. In the worst case, the right direction will fail together with the brakes.
Zhong Su asked: "Can you make it to the maintenance station? After 40 meters left 5, follow a 100-meter straight line."
"Let me feel it." Xia Qianchen said.
When all rally drivers take the test, the first lesson is how to apply the brakes.Fortunately, Xia Qianchen learned well at that time, and even more fortunately, there was a handbrake in the car.
The fog was getting thicker and thicker. When Xia Qianshen used the handbrake for the fourth time to assist in slowing down, he finally heard Zhong Su say: "There is a turn around at 90 meters, straight to the right and up the asphalt road."
"If we don't get to the asphalt road, we both don't have to fucking go up the ring tower."
Yes, if you don't go on the asphalt road, you will probably pack up and die here.
Finally, the stage ended and we got to the pit stop.
Into the pits.
But there is another saying in the maintenance station, if you go in, you will not be able to get out.
If you can't get out of the maintenance station, it means that the car can't be repaired.
Maintenance workers are divided into big workers and small workers. Technically speaking, big workers are better, and big workers are often older and experienced.Dagong’s favorite saying is: What kind of car has you never seen before.
It gives people an inexplicable confidence that "no matter what you crash into, I can fix it".
However, Dagong usually speaks very responsibly and rigorously, and he really just saw it.
"How did you drive it back?" Da Gong asked, "Can it be driven with an accelerator?"
Xia Qianchen didn't expect that it would be like this just by bumping into the referee's car.
After the whole car was lifted up, it was discovered that the rear tire was blown, and the tie rod was crooked. For some reason, the lip of the car was gone. Bring a stupid brother who buys high scores to play high-end games.
It's not easy, Xia Qianchen thought.
Afterwards, the referee car talked to the maintenance station, and the referee said: "What's the matter with Xia Qianshen of your No. 07 car? I was waving the flag at the back, and I couldn't see it when my hand was almost broken. Their rear tire blew out."
Dagong said: "Ah, yes, the tire was being changed, and I didn't see you waving the flag... because the rearview mirror is gone."
The referee wondered, "Also, when they rushed out, the front and back of the car were all scraped off."
Da Gong said: "Ah yes, I'm pretending too, thank you referee."
The referee was puzzled, "What do you mean, they all drove back to the pits like this?"
The one that exploded was the right rear tire. According to the referee, it was caused by various rocks, big trees and small trees on the side of the road when it skidded out of the track.
Therefore, the front-row crispy cannon fodder like the rearview mirror was the first to die, causing Xia Qianchen to have no idea that the referee was waving the flag behind.
In any case, as long as you enter the pits, you will have results in this stage.
"How fast am I?" Xia Qianchen asked.
The little worker handed the tool to the big worker, took the time to look at the message from the manager, and said, "We are currently fourth."
This is still on the premise that the engine of brother No. 06 exploded in the first stage.
Zhong Su turned back two pages of the road book, "We have to catch up with the car in front in the next stage, and there are many turns in the next stage. We can't change snow tires. Snow tires are too slow, so we have to use track tires."
After finishing speaking, Zhong Su didn't ask Xia Qianchen if it was okay, but cast a glance and raised his chin.
Xia Qianchen was pouring a ton of mineral water into his mouth, wiped his mouth, nodded in response, and said it was okay.
They crashed at this stage, and they were forced to finish with car damage, plus a time penalty, and they were 15 minutes behind.
Granted, none of this is a problem, because you can have accidents, and other people can have accidents.At this time, the good news came that the No. 09 car was blocked by the No. 08 car on the road for half a minute.
"Happy event." Zhong Su said.
"Happy event." Xia Qianchen agreed.
The maintenance workers changed the tires and accessories as quickly as possible, and re-adjusted.Dagong even reposted the wiped off sponsorship logo and wiped it clean with a rag.
The soul of a worker is ignited.
Soon, Nana let out a long breath when she heard that the No. 07 car had left the maintenance station.It's okay to drive into the maintenance station, the important thing is to be able to drive out.
The next stage, SS4, is still on the west slope of Changbai Mountain.
As Zhong Su said, there are many back turns, and back turns mean frequent drifting, and frequent drifting means that there is no speed in a straight line, which means slowness.
Moving on, the fog has not dissipated, but as the altitude increases, the visibility is getting better and better.
With the clear vision, Zhong Su can clearly feel that Xia Qianchen is becoming more confident and assertive, so in line with his driving mood at this time, "Left 40 in the first 2 meters, your braking point can be delayed."
"Don't you trust me too much?" Xia Qianchen said, shifting into gear, fueling up, and turning the direction.
"I don't believe you will still sit in your co-pilot?" Zhong Su asked back.
The difficulty of four-wheel drive drifting lies in the fact that the first kick of refueling must be strong enough, and the fuel storage must be fast enough. The theory is very simple, but the road surface, humidity, and even slope will all cause obstacles for four-wheel drive racing to drift.
This is why Zhong Su asked to use track tires instead of snow tires.
Track tires tend to be racing, and snow tires are more secure, it depends on how one chooses. The SS4 stage is full of ice and snow, but as long as they survive the most difficult ice and snow turn around and successfully go up the mountain, they will have a full nine kilometers of asphalt road waiting for them.
Nine kilometers, asphalt road.
Xia Qianshen, a racing driver with a background in lap speed, can catch up to the two cars in front of him on the nine-kilometer asphalt road.
The braking point became more and more limited, and he almost fell off the cliff several times. The most ruthless time was when Zhong Su could see from the rearview mirror that half of the right rear wheel was hanging outside the road.
Xia Qianshen is like an extremely precise driving instrument, at the moment when every curve comes into view, he judges the braking point with an analysis speed that almost exceeds the limit of human beings.
There is snow, there is gravel, and there is gravel.
At 180 mph, any bump in the road would send them rolling down a nearly vertical drop.
Every year someone dies in a rally, and every year someone dies.
"The last bend." Zhong Su read the road book, then raised his head again, "Full oil, float over."
Next, nine kilometers of asphalt road, the track tires were played.
At the last turning back in the snow, Xia Qianchen's first foot of the accelerator was quite decisive. He felt that the rear wheel was slightly scratched and drifted, and he slammed the second foot of the accelerator, and turned the direction.
At this time, the off-time ignition system of the racing car made Xia Qian loosen the throttle and still keep the turbocharger rotating at high speed. Continue to push the turbo blades——
This is the principle of tail flame.
In general, the special effects of the movie are still modest.
Xia Qian sank up the mountain.
On the nine-kilometer asphalt road, Xia Qianchen was unstoppable like Alsace wearing a helmet of domination.
"Beautiful." Zhong Su said, "The first 400 meters are long and straight, let's fly Xia Qianchen."
Xia Qianshen smiled nonchalantly, "Is it flying now? I will take you to New North in the future and let you know what flying is."
"Okay." Zhong Su said, "I'll wait from today."
"Hiss." Xia Qianchen realized that this person was serious, "What do you mean, clinging to me? Why."
The wind on the mountain was clear and clear, and the snow on the ridge not far away reflected the sun. Xia Qianshen had already turned the corner and couldn’t back down. Zhong Su was very understanding, holding the road book in one hand, and groping backwards with the other hand, and found the car fire extinguisher inside.
In the hands of Xia Qianchen, the racing car entered the berserk countdown mode, five kilometers, four kilometers, three kilometers...
You can already see the flag of the ice and snow rally dancing in the wind, two kilometers, one kilometer... Zhong Su carried the fire extinguisher to the front seat.
After crossing the finish line of the stage, Xia Qian applied the handbrake heavily and pulled the hood switch at the same time.
Zhong Su unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door and got out of the car with the fire extinguisher in hand, took the racing gloves thrown by Xia Qianchen, put on one for heat insulation, and then lifted the hood of the car.
The maintenance workers came to a sudden realization at this moment, several of them rushed up with fire extinguishers and sprayed on the engine with Zhong Su.
Game day is over.
"Damn." The maintenance station engineer watched a group of people spraying fire extinguishers on the engine, "Drag away, drag away... drag it inside, what's going on?"
Xia Qianshen was drinking water, and swallowed a few gulps, "I was hit in the last stage, and the engine must have been damaged. This stage was too fast, I thought it was going to catch fire anyway, so I let it go at the last stage run."
"The next stage is tomorrow." Zhong Su put down the fire extinguisher, "Master, I'm in trouble."
"Go, go." Dagong waved his hand, telling them to go to the side to rest.
Both SS3 and SS4 are west slope circuits, so the stage awards are presented at SS4, which is the end of this stage.There are still a few cars behind, so I sit here and wait.
This is a folding recliner, but Xia Qianchen doesn't know how to make it flat.
Seeing this, Zhong Su came over and broke some knobs on both sides, then faced Xia Qianchen face to face, propped himself on top of Xia Qianchen, and said, "Lie down."
Xia Qian Shen Shili lay down and lay flat.
"Thank you..." Xia Qianchen said.
Zhong Su smiled and sat beside him.
Xia Qianchen felt that it was a bit subtle, but he couldn't tell where it was.He thought Zhong Su was pretty good-looking, and when he was young, he hoped that he could grow into Zhong Su's type of face.
Tough, three-dimensional, smooth and clean lines.But he is more like his mother. Dr. Xia has the appearance of a gentle and classic beauty. He has inherited the characteristics of his mother very well. With fox eyes, he has a feeling that he may change into a real fox at any time in the mountains.
He lay down for a while, then put his hands on the back of his head, looked at the ceiling of the maintenance station, and said, "Do you know that you made a mistake in the left turn at the 16th kilometer."
"I know." Zhong Su nodded, "I underestimated you, and I underestimated the car. I shouldn't slow down. Your floor oil is right. You have a very accurate judgment on the car and road conditions. It's nothing to do with me. "
Xia Qian let out a deep snort, and said with a smile, "Then you don't have to come to work tomorrow."
"So you see, I'm not a very good navigator." Zhong Su looked at him, "Take me to the ring tower, you are a top driver, take me to the ring tower, not to hug your thighs."
"The press release will drown me at that time." Xia Qianshen tilted her head and looked at Zhong Su, "I have already thought about the title, "A generation of car gods won the ring tower, and the gold medal navigator contributed the most" .”
Zhong Su fell silent.
After he was silent for a moment, he looked around, it seemed that there was no other water or food in this small rest shed except Xia Qianchen drank half of the mineral water on the ground.
"Are you still drinking?" Zhong Su asked.
Xia Qianshen thought that Zhong Su was going to wash his hands or do something, "Stop drinking."
Zhong Su let out an oh, picked it up, unscrewed it, and drank the remaining half bottle of water.
Then he said: "If I disclose all my mistakes on the ring tower before I go up to the ring tower with you, and prove that I am not a gold medal navigator, will you be willing to take me to the ring tower?"
Xia Qianchen sat up straight like a carp, "Are you crazy?"
