Chapter 202 Mid-season Lottery
This is a very special-looking chassis. The battery compartment in the middle of the ordinary chassis is divided into two parts and arranged on the left and right sides of the chassis. The middle area is not too big or too small. Large enough to accommodate a motor.
In terms of transmission, this car also has a completely new design. The transmission shaft is omitted and a special motor directly drives the front and rear wheels to rotate together, and an independent suspension system is also installed.
However, because it can be said that a new chassis is built from scratch, there are still many problems in aerodynamics, even if these problems are now aerodynamically advanced in the system Lin Tie will not be able to solve them all for a while.
So, Lin De chose to outsource this matter and find professional people to solve professional matters. After two days, Dr. Ichimonji sent the official chassis drawings, and the car also You can officially start manufacturing.
"So, are you planning to let this car debut in the Mid-Season Championship?" Xiaoyou asked curiously, "After all, the last group match before the Mid-Season Championship is in three days, and three days is not enough time anyway. There is no way to finish this car, but the risk is too great to directly let this car appear in a knockout competition like the Mid-Season Championship."
"It's okay, I guess. I believe in my new car, and if there is any problem, don’t I still have my teammates to take care of it?” Lin said.
After a day’s rest, everyone quickly got back into intensive training.
Three days later, the Chinese Dragons defeated the Canadian Inuit team in an away game, completing the last game before the mid-season championship. At the same time, the points also reached 15-1, together with the German team Ranked first in Group A, and with this record, as long as it is not too outrageous in the future, we have basically secured a qualifying spot.
The competition for their subsequent rankings will become more intense.
England is ranked third with a record of 14-2, Argentina and Spain are both ranked fourth with a record of 13-3. These are the teams with a greater chance of qualifying. At the same time, the Russian team is also ranked 12-4. The results are closely followed.
It is worth mentioning that after experiencing a losing streak at the beginning of the game, the French team has finally adjusted its state recently and won a three-game winning streak, ranking in the middle of the group with a record of 8-8. It’s just that Huo Yuesheng heard from Nie Ming that there was a time when the French team next door would come to eat with canned herrings every week, looking sad, but their captain was indeed a ruthless person. Canned herrings with blue cheese The combination tastes delicious without batting an eyelid.
As for those at the bottom of the group, the buddies from the South African team are just here to have fun. Even though the record is only 2-14, they have made a lot of friends in the international school where they all go to school. , Kofi, a sunny black guy, is very popular. As for the Korean team, which boasted before the game to let the world see the strength of Korean mini racing, it’s okay to not win a game until 0-16, and the popularity is also ridiculously low. After all, there is no People like a group of idiots who like to shout and act arrogantly when they have nothing to do.
Looking back at Group B, when the Italian team lost three consecutive games, the United States won the first place in the group with a record of 14-2, while the Italian team remained at the top of the group with a record of 13-3. Second, the Victory team won three consecutive victories under the strong performance of Leap Charge, with a record of 12-4 and tied for third place in the group with the Tanzania team, which also maintained 12-4.
There is one in Group B A particularly interesting team is the Vietnamese team. Their current record is 8-8. Although they are only ranked in the middle of the group, their wins are particularly valuable. In the current Vietnamese prisoner-of-war camp, in addition to Neon and the United States, There are also strong mid-level teams such as Russia, but their eight losses, except for the one they lost to the Chinese team, all came from teams that were even lower than them in rankings.
In general, this is a team that robs the rich and gives to the poor.
After the game against Canada, Lin Dai also received the chassis drawings revised by Dr. Ichimonji, and Taichi Dragon officially started production.
While the Chinese Dragon Team was busy manufacturing Lin De’s new car, the WGP Mid-Season Champions Cup also kicked off.
This Mid-Season Champions Cup is divided into two stages. First, the 24 teams will be randomly divided into 8 groups, with three teams in each group, and a breakout match will be held to determine the outcome. , to determine the list of top eight teams.
Then the eight qualifying teams will compete in a knockout round. The whole process is an exciting and exciting game that determines the outcome.
Soon, the time came for the draw, and Lin Shu and the others temporarily put aside their work and came to the TV to watch the draw of the competition.
The results of the lottery will be released soon.
Group A: Neon, Australia, Canada
Group B: United States, France, Brazil
Group C: China, Jamaica, Russia
Group D: Germany, Austria, Sweden
Group E: Tanzania, Egypt, South Korea
Group F: Italy, Brazil, Argentina
Group G: Spain, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam
Group E: Portugal, England, Norway
Looking at the results of the draw, Lin Shu and others were quite satisfied. The strength of Group C they were in was not particularly strong, so qualifying from the group should not be a big problem.
The group stage will be held in Qiu Mingshan, the Neon Legend track made famous by a comic book. However, it is different from the different group match between the Chinese team and the American team. The track this time is not just the classic track with five consecutive hairpin turns. That track is designated as part of the track for this competition. At the same time, cross-country, road uphill and other other tracks are also added in the front and rear. The difficulty is that the track of this competition is 35 kilometers long and is divided into five sections. The competition will be held in the form of a relay race.
"Is the group stage so big?" Huo Yuesheng couldn't help but complain after looking at the track information.
“Let’s take a look at how to allocate the rankings first. The track conditions this time seem to be a bit too complicated.” Chen Hewang said, “Except for the downhill road and the uphill road in the middle of the last race, The other three sections have cross-country tracks, and one section is completely cross-country.”
“Leave that part of the downhill mountain road to me,” Gao Xiaoman said, “The giant wave shark should be able to do it. It was always a high speed on that stretch of road.”
"Then the entire uphill mountain road will be handed over to the wind chasing tiger with the strongest torque." Chen Xiaohu said, "The remaining three sections of the cross-country track will be divided among the three of you?"
" Let me do the entire cross-country track. The remaining two sections of the road track are basically straight lines, which is more suitable for your performance." Chen Hewang said.
"Are you going to take the more complicated track?" Huo Yuesheng looked at Lin Shu and said, "The triple deformation of your new car should be able to fully adapt to this track." "Yes, it looks like This runway looks like it was specially prepared for the Tai Chi War Dragon." After Lin Ye finished speaking, he looked back at the completed body of the Tai Chi War Dragon on the workbench not far away and chuckled.
The day before the start of the group stage, the organizer sent all the contestants to a small town next to Akina Mountain.
On the first day of the competition, the TRF victory team successfully won the spot in the knockout rounds. During the competition, except for the Australian team, which was equipped with solar cells and did not need to replace the batteries, which caused them a little trouble, it can be said that there was no problem. They create no hindrance.
In the second day of the competition, the American team strongly won the second qualifying spot. Whether it was road or cross-country, the performance of the Jumper could be said to be impeccable. Moreover, this kind of long-distance outdoor competition The track magnified the role of their satellite control room many times.
On the third day, it was the turn of Group C of the Chinese Dragon Team to compete.
CCTV also seems to attach great importance to the Mid-Season Champions Cup. Even if it is just a group match, during the live broadcast, it also sent three commentators, namely Su Fan, Director Zhang, and Han Qiao.
“Watch the group stage of the WGP World Mini Racing World Cup Mid-Season Champions League. Today, the Chinese Dragon Team’s opponents are the Jamaican team and the Russian team. What do you want to say about today’s game? "Yes?" Su Fan asked.
"This game shouldn't be too difficult for the Chinese Dragon Team," Han Qiao said with a smile, "Their opponent is the Russian team that they have defeated before, and in this kind of relay race In this format, their best teamwork can play a very small role. The other is the Jamaican team. Their current record in Group B is 2-14, which is at the bottom of the group. I think, the Chinese Dragons As long as the children perform steadily, it is not difficult to win this qualifying spot.”
“Yes, compared to whether the Chinese Dragon Team can qualify, I am more concerned about player Lin Shu in this game. The performance of the new car, Taichi Battle Dragon,” Director Zhang said, “Lin Shuo, who has been used as an assistant in several games due to the poor performance of the motor, also brought his new car Tai Chi Battle Dragon to this Mid-Season Cup. Long, his performance is very exciting.”
“We can see that the top players of the three teams are already standing on the starting line, and the order of the three teams also appears on the screen. , the Chinese Dragon Team chose player Huo Yuesheng and his car Tianwai Magic Bat for the first leg. The second leg of the uphill road was handed over to player Chen Xiaohu and his Chasing Wind Tiger. The third leg was also The track's most famous section of the downhill mountain road, where the five consecutive hairpin turns are located, is handled by Gao Xiaoman and her Big Wave Shark. The cross-country stage after going down the mountain is handed over to Chen Hewang and his team. "Yin Yang Scorpion", the last shot is taken by player Lin Dai who has changed to the new car "Tai Chi Dragon". "Dragon! Which team do you think will qualify?" Qiao pestered Eagle Feather Dragon. asked.
The Neon Victory Team and the American Space Rover Team, which have already won the qualifying spots, came to the auditorium to watch the game at the same time today. After the two teams met, the Eagle Feather Dragon came first Time was taken away by Joe.
The luxury hotel buffet coupon that Joe got during the last Thousand Sons Girls' Day special event allowed the two of them to spend a fairly pleasant weekend, and their friendship quickly warmed up. Of course, if the brat Jiro Maru wasn't hanging around... Even better.
“Of course it’s the Chinese Dragon Team, Brother Shu will definitely win!” Jiromaru said.
"Chinese Dragon Team." Eagle Feather Dragon with a stern look said that he had the same opinion as his brother.
"Will Ah Dai's new car also appear in this game? It's really exciting." On the other side, Xiao Hao, who was mixed with Brett and the others, looked expectantly at the super large car in front of the audience. The broadcast screen said.
"Yes, his new car is indeed worthy of careful study." Brett, who was wearing red clothes and sunglasses, nodded in agreement, then turned back to Hama who was still playing with the computer and said: "Ha Ma, remember to let the control room record the data.”
"I understand, captain." Hama said from the side.
“Hey, Brett, aren’t you tired of doing these things all the time?” Xiao Hao said.
"Intelligence is also an important part of victory. Are you like you who just rush forward no matter what the situation is?" Brett said.
"Hmph! Let's compete if you can! My Leap Charge doesn't need all these things to beat you!" Xiao Hao retorted unconvinced.
"Xiaohao!" Xiaolie helplessly reached out and pushed his worried brother back.
"You should be here to collect intelligence." Brett said after taking a look at Xiaolie.
"Absolutely, but more than anything, I am still curious." Xiaolie said truthfully, "After all, this is the first battle of Ah Dai's new car."
Brett and Lin Dai are like this It’s fine for people who haven’t been in contact for a long time, but Xiao Lie has watched Lin Shu’s entry into mini racing until now. Whether it’s the full-speed posture of the golden-armored war dragon or the light-speed propulsion mode of the light-speed war dragon, every time The new car that Lin Bo took out gave him some extraordinary shocks, so he couldn't wait to rush to the scene of this Tai Chi Dragon Fighting debut.
The first players of the three teams have already set off.
Due to its extremely high-speed configuration, the Magic Bat fell slightly behind at the start, but after its speed increased, it quickly made up the gap.
"Come on! The Outer Demon Bat!" Like a sharp sword, the Outer Demon Bat passed through the sides of the Russian team's Omega and the Jamaican RG. After setting off, a considerable length of straight road gave the Outer Demon Bat Bat's best performance stage.
“After falling behind for a short time at the beginning of the race, Tianwai Mobat quickly picked up speed and overtook two cars one after another to take the first place. The ultra-high-speed V2 motor allowed him to take the first place here. Showing off his power on a straight track," Han Qiao said, "Behind him, the Russian Silver Foxes' Omega gradually distanced itself from the Jamaican team's RG."
" The Russian Silver Fox team also completed the replacement of the motor in a previous game. The Storm motor they jointly researched with Canada and Norway is not inferior to the second-generation motor of the V2 motor in terms of performance, but the motor The emphasis is just different. The V2 motor is strong in explosive power and has a lot of room for detailed modification, while the Storm motor is strong in adaptability to various environments,” Su Fan introduced to the audience, “As for the Jamaican team, Currently, the first-generation motor provided by the official is still used, so there are still some deficiencies in terms of power. ”
