He rode a motorcycle and crashed the plane.

Chapter 555 555. Racing base

Racing base?

Xu Jia nodded thoughtfully, he probably knew where this place was.

Many people think that rally racing is about tossing in various wild terrains, but in fact, any motor sport cannot escape one essence, and that is field practice!

Yes, rally racing also requires track field practice. From the most basic judgment of critical braking points, to vehicle center of gravity control when turning, as well as various comprehensive exercises on line routing and cornering, all need to be completed on the field.

Only with a solid site foundation can we cope with various complex road conditions on non-paved roads and remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing conditions!

"You have run at the Donghai International Circuit, and you can beat the Volkswagen 222 Rookie Cup winner by more than 4 seconds. The venue should be fine."

As soon as he got out of the car, the old drunkard lit a cigarette for himself, and then asked Xu Jia.

"no problem."

Xu Jia spit out these three words.

It is no exaggeration for him to say that at present, except for the CTCC podium level and the few drivers who are running Formula in Europe, they may be slightly better in track lap times, and all other professional drivers in China cannot beat him.

Even the reason why these few people are slightly better is not because of their driving skills, but because of their physical fitness.

At present, Xu Jia's body cannot bear the G value caused by sudden braking and high-speed cornering, which will affect his track lap time to a great extent. There is no problem in outperforming a professional rookie like He Lei, but in outperforming the real top domestic players, the slight gap will be infinitely magnified!

"What about gravel?"

The old drunkard pointed at the road surface of the "track".

The reason why this Guangzhou-Shenzhen base is overgrown is that it has been abandoned for a long time and has not been maintained. The main reason is that it is not a relatively complete paved road like the F1 track, but asphalt, gravel, etc. Mixed road surface.

Even when Xu Jia looked into the distance, he could still find traces of mud on the hills, indicating that the environment of different rally tracks had been simulated here.

"do not know."

Xu Jia replied calmly. Although he was a Chinese driver in his previous life, he was fundamentally different from other track drivers who transitioned from rally racing. He went abroad to receive professional formula training at the age of ten. How could he run on gravel roads? Contest?

Of course, it is definitely no problem to open it normally, but the so-called "can open" standard for the old drunkard is definitely different from the standard for ordinary people, and Xu Jia is not completely sure.

"Then drive the Mitsubishi EVO and try it now."

"Now?"

The old drunkard suddenly decided to come to Guangdong Province yesterday, which already surprised Xu Jia with his efficiency.

The car had just been parked, and Xu Jia didn't even see the full picture of the Guangshen base. Did he start the trial training directly?

"How about I let you have a good meal first, then take a bath and have a comfortable sleep?"

"By the way, do you want to ask two beauties to give you a massage and relax?"

"No thanks!"

Seeing that the old drunkard was getting more and more outrageous, Xu Jia simply turned around and went to the rear of the event transport vehicle, preparing to drive off the Mitsubishi EVO inside. In fact, seriously speaking, this speed is not particularly exaggerated. When Xu Jia was a F1 driver, if he encountered a cross-continental race, he also had to race against time.

You need to know that the interval between F1 races varies from one week to two weeks, depending on the FIA ​​calendar arrangement.

If the last race was completed in Japan and the next race is scheduled to be on an American track, then the entire repair station needs to be dismantled, transferred and reassembled in just one week.

Moreover, with the level of sophistication of F1 events, it is not just a race transport vehicle. The entire maintenance station has hundreds of kilometers of optical wiring. Countless sensors and camera probes must be installed to capture millimeter-level changes in the driver's wiring process. .

Xu Jia's role as a test driver is to find out the track data before the official race, and then help the engineers adjust the most suitable racing plan based on the track characteristics, saving the physical strength and time of the official driver.

Therefore, during most of the transition time between stations, Xu Jia started to test the track without stopping, which was no different from what old drunkards do now.

If I have to say something, it would be that the old drunkard didn't even give him time to drink water, which was a bit too oppressive!

Brother Niu saw Xu Jia going to the rear of the event transport vehicle and followed him to help him. As the container door was opened, a red Mitsubishi EVO appeared in Xu Jia's sight.

Red can be said to be the standard color for Japanese performance cars, whether it is Toyota's "red head machine" that represents performance, Honda's "red head logo" that represents speed, or even Mazda's red paint that represents "soul".

They all chose red to show their own speed and passion.

Mitsubishi EVO has gone through a total of ten generations of models from its birth in 92 for the WRC rally to the release of the last generation EVO in 2007.

But this sixth-generation EVO, released in 1999, can be said to be the last glory of the entire Mitsubishi EVO series on the track. Since then, EVO has never won the title of WRC championship car.

In addition to the Mitsubishi EVO in the center of the race transport vehicle, various racing repair tools are hung on the surrounding walls. You must know that there are countless breakdowns in rally events, and crashes and rollovers are commonplace.

Therefore, maintenance equipment and spare parts are essential. It seems that the old drunkard has made sufficient preparations for future competitions.

But what really caught Xu Jia's attention was a racing suit hanging on the wall of the car.

This racing suit does not have any logo on it, and it is still brand new, which means it cannot be the old drunkard’s previous racing suit.

Seeing Xu Jia staring at the racing suit, Brother Niu said with a smile: "Uncle Xu prepared this for you. You can try it on to see if it fits you."

If there is anything that is the most obvious sign of a driver's profession, it is undoubtedly the racing suit, and it is also the most handsome outfit for a driver!

The photo that impressed Xu Jia the most was that of Schumacher wearing a racing suit, holding a helmet on his arm, leaning against Blue Star's most powerful F1 car, with the setting sun behind him.

Maybe based on his appearance alone, Schumacher is not really that handsome, but when he puts on this suit and the bonus of the racing car, that photo is so handsome. This is what he calls a real driver!

It was this photo he saw when he was a child that made Xu Jia choose to pursue the formula path in his life. He also wanted to become a driver like Schumacher.

When he came to this world, Xu Jia actually ran a few racing cars, and even went to the Donghai International Circuit. However, he always felt that something was missing. He didn't have the same feeling as a professional driver in his previous life. Now he understood that what he needed was this racing suit!

Hey, the old drunkard is indeed the strongest rally driver in the country. You really understand what I want.

Standing in front of this racing suit, a smile appeared on Xu Jia's face, smiling happily.
