He rode a motorcycle and crashed the plane.

Chapter 556 556. Professional equipment!

Putting on the racing suit in the race transport vehicle, I have to say that although the old drunkard looks crazy when he is drunk, he has a good grasp of many details. At least for Xu Jia, this racing suit fits as if it were customized. .

"Very handsome, like a driver!"

Brother Niu looked at Xu Jia, who was wearing a racing suit, and gave him a thumbs up sign to praise him.

It's just a pity that there are no fragile items like mirrors in the event transport vehicle, otherwise Xu Jia can see what he looks like wearing a racing suit for the first time in this world.

Of course, the role of a racing suit is not only to show off, but its real purpose is to protect the driver's life after a racing accident. It can even be called the driver's second skin.

All qualified racing suits must be stretch-resistant, fire-resistant and heat-resistant, just like firefighters' fire-resistant suits. Those cutting-edge racing suits of later generations can withstand flames of up to thousands of degrees, giving them about 10 seconds of golden time for track rescue.

After putting on his racing suit, Xu Jia also discovered that there was a head and neck protection system in the container. The English name is HANS protection system.

Just from the appearance, this thing looks like a neck gaiter. Just like a seat belt, it fixes the driver's shoulders and chest with the racing bucket seat. In this way, if the car collides violently, it will not produce a huge whip force and directly break the driver's neck.

In addition to accident protection, this HANS system can also help drivers withstand high G values ​​and reduce the heavy pressure on the neck to a certain extent during racing.

Xu Jia, who is currently in good physical condition, needs the help of this system if he wants to really drive fast.

When Xu Jia was putting on his professional equipment, Brother Niu had already installed the slide rails and was waiting for him to topple the Mitsubishi EVO.

Looking at Brother Niu who was already standing outside the car waiting, Xu Jia took a deep breath at this time, because next he will truly control a professional racing car in this world, even if it is just a rally car.

Open the door, and unlike the rough interior of a performance car, the interior of a professional rally car cannot even be worthy of the word "crude". Except for the racing parts that had to be retained, everything else that could be dismantled was removed, not even the most basic air conditioning.

Because there is a saying in the racing world that there is no better modification than lightweighting.

Instead of thinking about increasing horsepower, it is better to think about how to reduce the weight of the car, which will get twice the result with half the effort.

Some people may have questions at this time. Wearing a thick racing suit and sitting in an iron tower without even air conditioning in the summer, isn't that similar to a sauna?

Congratulations on your correct answer. Professional competitions have never been superficial. While pursuing speed and passion, you have to endure the ultimate test on your body.

In the most intense F1 event, after a nearly two-hour race, dehydration alone will reach 3-4KG.

Thinking about what it means to lose seven or eight pounds in one or two hours, just hearing the numbers is a bit scary. Therefore, it is not without reason that F1 drivers are called the most skilled people on the planet.

However, the rally will be more conscientious. If there is no air conditioning system, you cannot open the windows to blow in the wind. This will greatly increase the wind resistance. Therefore, the racing team will cut a small hole in the rearview mirror and use an air pipe similar to a water pipe to guide the outside air into the car.

As for how obvious the effect will be, it depends on how well the driver can deceive himself, which is simply because he believes in it!

When the ignition was started, an extremely rich engine sound stimulated the depths of Xu Jia's soul.

Performance cars are performance cars after all. Even if they are not inferior to professional racing cars in many aspects such as power, they will never be as good as professional racing cars that are built for racing!

The original horsepower of the sixth generation Mitsubishi EVO is limited by the "gentleman's agreement" between Japanese manufacturers, and the upper limit is fixed at 280P. Xu Jia doesn’t know how powerful this track version of the EVO is, but his guess is that it looks like a 300P.

Because the specific performance data of top racing cars, including F1, is one of the core secrets of each team, it is impossible to let the outside world know how powerful the current racing cars are.

However, according to Xu Jia's experience, the direction of rally car modification does not pay much attention to horsepower, as long as it is enough. What really matters is torque, which means the car's explosive power and ability to accelerate.

To put it simply, horsepower determines the speed limit of a car, while torque determines the rapid acceleration capability of a car. The rally track is limited by complex terrain factors. It is impossible to run at top speeds of two to three hundred kilometers per hour like track races. The average speed in rally races is only 120km/h, and some extreme terrains in the wild are even lower.

Therefore, top speed horsepower is not important for a rally car. It is more important to brake and decelerate, and then step on the accelerator to increase the speed of the car as quickly as possible.

Pushing the gear lever, Xu Jia drove the track version of the EVO and drove slowly along the slide rail built at the rear of the car.

When he was racing with Hong Kong Island Tung Chai at Tin Ming Shan, the other party's BMW M3CSL was equipped with an SGM sequential gearbox, but his version was still a civilian version.

What Xu Jia is controlling now is a true track version of the complete sequential gearbox. Compared with ordinary civilian transmissions, it can handle greater engine horsepower and torque, and the shifting speed is faster than the civilian version!

When the old drunkard saw Xu Jia driving down the car, he put out the cigarette butt in his hand, then opened the door and sat in directly.

"Does it fit?"

"It fits very well, thank you Uncle Xu."

Of course Xu Jia knew what the old drunkard was asking, and at the same time, he was really grateful to the old drunkard for giving him this racing suit.

This is the first time Xu Jia came to this world and felt that he was the professional driver he once was.

Hearing Xu Jia's answer, the old drunkard fastened his seat belt and said, "Run around the base track and let me see your current strength."

Seriously speaking, in addition to learning about Xu Jia's "record" from other people's mouths, Xu Lang just felt Xu Jia's drifting level in the small truck at the car wash shop.

Being able to push the accelerator to the point where the small box truck swerves out has to be said that it shows Xu Jia's ultimate control of the vehicle's center of gravity. This is also the main reason why old drunkards can recognize Xu Jia's ability.

But being able to master drifting doesn't mean you can conquer the track. Now Xu Lang wants to feel Xu Jia's true strength!

"Uncle Xu, can you still see the track clearly?"

Xu Jia asked suspiciously. No one doubted that this base was a wasteland. How could there be traces of tracks?

"I'll be the pilot, you just follow."

The old drunkard replied calmly, for top rally drivers, even with their eyes closed, as long as they have enough tacit understanding with the navigator, they can finish the entire track!

"Uncle Xu, I'm going to be serious this time."

A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Xu Jia's mouth, completely without the nervousness of driving a racing car for the first time.

"Okay, let me see how fast it is."

Perhaps sensing Xu Jia's confidence, the old drunkard squinted at him and replied quarrelsomely.

"Finally I can drive fast."

Following Xu Jia's words, the speed of the track version of the EVO was instantly increased. With the perfect oil separation, the entire car was ejected like lightning.

The crazy push on his back pushed Xu Lang firmly onto the racing bucket seat. At this moment, his expression finally changed!
