If you are familiar with rally competitions, you will not be unfamiliar with Mitsubishi evo.

Because it has won the WRC championship for four consecutive years.

For professional racing drivers of that era, Evo was a monster with exaggerated performance.

For car fans of this era, its extremely pure racing pedigree is their belief.

If the driver who wins the championship is the god of cars, then the Mitsubishi evo that accompanied the god of cars to win the championship is the god of cars.

In fact, the Mitsubishi evo is indeed a magic car, and can even be said to be the representative model of Japanese high-performance cars.

Its pure rally pedigree and nearly unlimited modification potential have established its status as a sacred car in the hearts of car fans.

The ninth generation evo is not the last generation of 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.

A ninth-generation Evo that was originally priced at RMB 4 to 50,000 more than ten years ago can now be sold for RMB 4 to 50,000 in the second-hand market if the car is in good condition. If it has license plates from some regions, the price can even reach RMB 6,000.

Seven hundred thousand or even higher.

In the second-hand market, this car is one of the few cars that becomes more valuable as it gets older.

At this time, Xiao Ning, who was sent to Hukou Town in a car sent by Red Bull to pick him up, was waiting in the car to see what happened to the ninth-generation Evo modified by Red Bull.

Yes, except that he saw the original ninth-generation Evo car when Huang Mao sent it over that day, he never saw this car in the following few days.

He actually doesn’t know what it has been changed into.

Not long after the car drove on the main road in the town, he finally saw his car for this challenge in a garage.

A ninth-generation evo that has been radically modified by Red Bull in a short period of time, and can even be said to be armed to the teeth.

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

The pure white ninth-generation evo appeared in Xiao Ning's eyes.

Small, short.

But Xiao Ning knows that once this thing is activated, it will definitely be a problem!

Bang hard!

While Xiao Ning was touching the exterior of the car with his hands, John was introducing the work of their team over the past few days.

"Xiao."

"When we were planning the site and building it, we had already visited some places near Hukou Waterfall and made measurements."

"The distance between the two sides of the bank that is really suitable for leaping is 55.5 meters."

"Although there is a shorter route at Hukou Waterfall, the shortest is over 30 meters, there are no straight sections for acceleration on both sides of the bank at that location. It is difficult to build a straight road for acceleration in a short time."<

/p>

"So we chose the 55.5-meter road. My deputy should have called you to inform you before."

Xiao Ning gently patted the hood of the ninth-generation Evo and nodded to John: "I know this."

Although the deputy had conveyed Xiao Ning's intention on this matter before, John confirmed again: "Xiao, are you okay with this distance?"

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. The construction of the site has actually been completed now, and the final inspection work is already being done."

"The so-called leap is actually a motion similar to a flat throw. As long as the initial speed off the jumping platform is large enough, the displacement of the car on the x-axis will be greater."

"Based on the actual challenge location, our engineers ran simulations many times on computers while taking into account air resistance and other factors."

"If you want the car to jump 55 meters in the air, the starting speed of the car when exiting the jumping platform must be greater than 150 kilometers."

"Because the acceleration section of the selected route is actually not too short, the engine horsepower does not actually need to be particularly high. However, for the sake of safety, we decided to increase the horsepower of this car."

“However, because it is too late to purchase some parts now, and the complete modification of the engine cannot be carried out due to time constraints, we adopted a more compromise plan. After completing the basic horsepower adjustment, we installed nitrogen acceleration on the car.

System, that is, nos."

As soon as John finished speaking, Xiao Ning, who was drinking water, almost sprayed the water on John's face.

The nitrogen acceleration system is okay...

But...

Actually it’s not bad.

If you cannot continue to increase horsepower under existing conditions, it is indeed a wise choice to install NOS.

After all, some drag races often use nitrogen acceleration systems.

There is nothing profound about the working principle of the nitrogen acceleration system. It just puts the nitrous oxide that has been formed into a liquid state under high pressure into a cylinder, and injects it into the engine when needed.

Nitrous oxide will decompose into oxygen and nitrogen under high temperature conditions. Oxygen can be used as a combustion-supporting gas, while nitrogen can assist in cooling.

Injecting nitrous oxide when the engine is in working condition can increase the combustion integrity of the fuel and thereby increase the engine power to achieve the purpose of improving power.

When there is no time to make major modifications to the engine, adding a nitrogen acceleration system is indeed the most trouble-free.

That is to say, if you move the engine a little and install a nozzle, and there are multiple solenoid valves for cylinders outside, the weight will not increase too much.

After putting away the surprise in his heart, Xiao Ning continued to pick up the water and drink. John on the side did not pay attention to Xiao Ning's reaction just now and continued to talk now.

"We replaced the sequential gearbox..."

"According to the parameter results simulated by the computer program, if you take off at a predetermined speed, the distance to the ground when you fall will be... To ensure safety, we replaced the suspension of this car with..."

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

After John slowly finished explaining almost all aspects, Xiao Ning already had a good idea of ​​the condition of the car.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Although according to John, the horsepower of the ninth-generation Evo that they modified does not even exceed 1,000, and is not even as good as the previous modified version of the ae86.

But in fact, the modification cost of this car is much greater than that of the ae86.

After John completed the introduction, Xiao Ning did not choose to open the door and start the car for a test drive immediately. Instead, he lay down and touched the suspension of the car with his hands.

According to John, the suspension currently used on this ninth-generation Mitsubishi evo can be regarded as a top-level racing suspension.

"This is all money..." Xiao Ning touched a hand of oil, and then sighed in her heart: "Oh no! Red Bull is so rich!"

Different people have completely different opinions on whether a car is good or not.

Ordinary people who don’t understand cars often only focus on whether the car looks good or not.

Ordinary people who know a little bit about the quality of cars will stop at the brands of Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi Civic.

Ordinary people who know a lot about cars only have a limited understanding of the quality of a car, what is the engine, what is the AMG thing, and so on.

And the concept of good and bad cars by avid car enthusiasts is the suspension.

If a car's suspension system is very awesome, then there is no doubt that this car is absolutely awesome!

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

One set of suspension and one suite!

I have to say.

Red Bull is indeed very wealthy.

If Xiao Ning had to pay for this at his own expense, even if he had tens of millions, he would definitely be able to save on costs, as long as the hardware is sufficient.

But what Red Bull means is not to buy usable ones, but to buy expensive but usable ones.

"It's so damn willing!"

Xiao Ning, who was sighing in her heart, had already wiped her hands and put on gloves.

Entered the car and started the car.

The exhaust sound of the engine is particularly pleasant.

Compared with the 1,000-horsepower 86 that was modified before, the engine of this car is not so violent, but much more restrained.

However, Xiao Ning knew very well that such restraint only seemed to be restrained.

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

If it were an ordinary small town, Xiao Ning would really have no place to test the car.

But because there are tourists here all year round, Hukou Town is quite a big place and the roads are quite wide.

The Red Bull team had already found a closed road for him to try out the car.

Driving this heavily modified ninth-generation Evo on such a road, Xiao Ning's experience was quite novel.

Although this car weighs much more than the modified ae86, it actually doesn't feel any heavier when driving.

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

After driving back and forth on a closed road for more than half an hour, Xiao Ning stopped the car and took the Red Bull from the Red Bull staff next to him.

After taking off his helmet and drinking 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 in a hotel in Hukou Town.
