Chapter 1908 Automatic Transmission (Part 1)
The design of this tracked small tank allows the front of the vehicle to leave the ground, and only rely on the rear part of the inclined track to land on the ground, raising the front of the vehicle high, and its climbing and climbing capabilities are so brutal that it makes opponents desperate.
Whose ordinary wheeled off-road vehicle can climb a two-meter-high obstacle? The thing is, this little tank can. than what?
Than the passability in the mud swamp? Or is it more passable than soft soil or loose sand? In this regard, the natural track has the upper hand, and some places where the track can pass, the wheels cannot pass.
Differential lock performance? Can wheeled vehicles be better than tracked 360-degree U-turns?
For the time being, the items that can be compared here are these few items. According to the game plan provided before, it is to pass on the various terrains provided here. Those who can pass win, and those who cannot pass lose. If they can all pass, the passing speed will be used to distinguish the superior and inferior. The one with less time wins and the one with more time loses.
For a normal game, there is no problem with this arrangement. But now, Guo Tailai took out a tracked small tank to compete with the wheeled Challenger in off-road performance. How can this compare?
"Maybe we can win a little bit from the passing time." It has reached this point, and it is impossible for the challenger to give up halfway. In front of so many media and audiences, and there will be a live broadcast later, it is absolutely impossible for them to admit defeat directly. The Challenger team and the drivers had a quick discussion.
The only chance now is that the opponent's driver is a supermodel Phoenix, not a professional driver, and may not be able to compare with professional drivers in terms of driving skills. As long as you can regain some time, and don't increase the difficulty of passing on the spot, you may be able to barely pass.
Of course, passing the level means winning a little bit in one or two of them, and it is absolutely impossible to expect a complete victory. This point of self-knowledge is still there. They are all professionals. They know the cars they build, so they don’t have that kind of unrealistic fantasy.
Another very important point is that the current difficulty of passing the arena is just at the limit of the challenger's performance. The purpose of determining the venue in advance and coming to train is to adjust these. But if Mr. T asked to increase the difficulty on the spot, such as digging the mud pit deeper, or deepening the water by a few centimeters, their challenger had to lie down. And the added difficulty might not pose any threat to the small tracked tank on the opposite side.
Since it was not stipulated in advance that Mr. T must use wheeled vehicles to fight, everything is in compliance with the rules now. No one will mention what is fair or unfair except the Swedes, and it doesn't make sense to mention the Swedes.
Under the gaze of the live media cameras and the audience, the contest between the two sides started on time.
In fact, at this time, the media and the audience also know that the outcome has been decided, and the so-called contests and competitions are actually about whether the challenger can save a little face and watching the performance of Mr. T's new car. It is mainly the latter. You have just seen that the small tank can drive at high speed with its head raised. I don’t know how curious the specific performance of the small tank is.
Those who come from afar are the guests, and the challengers go first.
In the muddy swamp, the challenger rushed headlong into the muddy quagmire, only a dozen meters into it, and the tires slipped and idling on the spot as expected. At this time, the driver skillfully shifted gears, switched power, precisely adjusted the direction, skillfully pulled the car out of the mud, and moved forward all the way, which was quite exciting. A professional driver is a professional driver. A set of movements is smooth and smooth, the depth of the accelerator pedal, and which differential lock to open are all very particular.
It took the challenger a full two minutes to get through this rough and uneven swamp that was 200 meters long and the upper part of the quagmire was as deep as a tire and the lower part was muddy. I can’t go fast at all. If I go a little faster, the tires will spin and slip. Because I can’t see the situation under the quagmire, I can only rely on the driver’s rich experience to make on-the-spot adjustments. The car stops for up to ten seconds. Every time I encounter a situation It will be adjusted in the shortest time, and the car will be pulled out, which is quite exciting.
The audience who can come here on weekdays are obviously fanatical enthusiasts, or at least knowledgeable. Seeing the challenger's performance, they did not hesitate to applaud. Simply speaking from the performance point of view, the challenger is wonderful.
It's the turn of Guo Tailai's little tank. Guo Tailai spoke to Chu Fei in the driver's cab briefly, and the little tank started to drive slowly.
After adjusting the direction, what Chu Fei has to do is actually very simple. Controlling the direction, stepping on the accelerator, the little tank sprinted fiercely. In just a few seconds, the speed of the small tank exceeded one hundred kilometers per hour, and it was still accelerating.
With a brush, a large piece of mud was lifted up by the metal and rubber mixed tracks of the small tank, and flew out in several directions regularly for a long distance. The little tank rushed into the mud swamp at such a high speed, and in the splash of mud and water, the little tank ran over the mud without stopping. Then there was no more, the little tank rushed out of the mud swamp area and stopped steadily.
time? Is there more than ten seconds? At this time, everyone has no idea. The trapping, skidding, and all kinds of wonderful operations to pull out that should have happened, there is no such thing, the car just passes directly above the swamp as if floating, flat.
What else can the Challenger team say? What else can the audience say? What else can the audience in front of the live screen say? Tracked small tanks, because of the large contact area of the tracks, are originally used on some heavy tanks or engineering vehicles to reduce ground pressure and increase passability. Isn't it normal for small light tanks to not get stuck in the mud? What can I say?
It's just that the performance of the two sides is really different, so big that a small tank with a track can directly drop ten times with one effort. No skill or driving experience is needed at all. The simplest thing is to hold the steering wheel and step on the accelerator. How does this make the two sides compare? How to compete?
When the challenger passed just now, the audience still applauded. Now that the tracked tank passed by, there was no sound at all. It seemed like it was over before everyone could react.
For the mountain road challenge, the audience watched the four wheels of the non-load-bearing body of the Challenger pass through the rugged mountain and rocky roads with slightly different heights, and they also burst into applause. When it was the turn of the small tracked tank, Chu Fei still held the steering wheel, slightly lowered the accelerator, the body shook from side to side a few times, and passed easily.
Going up the vertical steps, 70 centimeters high, the challenger's front wheels touch the side of the steps, low gear and high throttle, the wheels roll up along the side of the vertical steps, after the front wheels go up, the rear wheels slowly approach, the four-wheel drive becomes the front drive force, Bring the rear wheels up too. The control was flawless throughout and won acclaim.
The small tank drove over, Chu Fei held the steering wheel, lightly stepped on the accelerator, and climbed up directly. Such a small obstacle is not as high as the track in front. What is the difference between a peaceful place? Pass directly without raising the front of the car.
