Chapter 332: Highest Speed ​​(Part 2)

Hines stared wide-eyed, looked at Guo Tailai in surprise, then smiled wryly, and held Guo Tailai's hand again.

"My fault, you seem to have said that you are the designer and manufacturer." Hines was a little embarrassed, and expressed his apology through a translator.

The engine Hines wanted to build was the engine of the car he was driving over now. When he looked closely at the car, Guo Tailai realized that it was a Porsche. Coincidentally, it happened to be the 993 turbo that set a record this year.

"Your fleet allows so many advertisements on your car?" Guo Tailai couldn't help asking curiously.

"This was my sponsor before I joined the team." Hines explained with a smile: "In fact, I joined the F1 team in June this year. The sponsor bought this car for me. It is normal to have advertisements on it. .”

"Do you want to modify the engine privately?" Guo Tailai confirmed again: "Your team agrees?"

"This car is my personal property." Hines explained again.

Now Guo Tailai is fine. It's not a big deal to build an engine as it is. As long as there are materials, there is no problem at all.

Testing the highest speed requires a long straight track, which is actually not suitable here in New North. The best is the internal proving ground of Volkswagen, BMW and Mercedes-Benz. It's a pity that Guo Tailai doesn't have that network, and it's impossible for the Volkswagen BMW Mercedes-Benz test site to lease the internal test site to Guo Tailai just because of the mere rent.

As for Hines coming forward? Don't even think about it, the people in the McLaren team are also outsiders, okay? F1 drivers, maybe Schumacher, who has won many championships, will have that face, and the reserve drivers who have just joined the team don't have to expect extravagant expectations.

No way, it can only be tested on the long straight road in New North. However, this will be affected, because the road surface has high and low, and there are a few turns, but some speed records can also be measured for the time being.

I have communicated with the track management, and the other party said that there is no problem for half an hour. Today, the new car with the prefix T is performing well, and I can help them buy half an hour for testing when they are about to get off work. The main reason is that at that time, the major factories have already finished their own affairs, so it will not hinder too much, and those who run the track privately have not much time at that time, so they will not hinder too many people.

There is an official speedometer on the track. The speedometer in this era is relatively large, and it takes more than ten minutes to set up.

After the engineers took turns driving Guo Tailai's new car, they all applauded the handling and power performance of the new car. Hearing that there would be another speed test in the evening, even when it was their off-duty time, they all stayed and wanted to see how fast the car could go.

There was half an hour to check the status of the car, and these engineers also helped, so that Long Fei and Guo Tailai did not have to work hard, and quickly checked the car again. Heins drove it around and deepened the feeling again. Afterwards, it re-opened on the main straight of the track.

This time it does not start from the starting point. The starting point of the car is in the middle of the straight. To fully accelerate, it has to start from the southernmost end of the straight. Considering the time and brightness issues, this speed test is only planned to be tested twice.

The black sports car swished through the speed measuring point like an arrow leaving the string.

The speed per hour has not yet come to the result, but everyone who observed it secretly praised it in their hearts. With such a high speed, it definitely exceeded 300 kilometers per hour, and the car didn't show any sign of fluttering at all. Usually, if the design of the car is not good enough in aerodynamics, it will flutter when the speed increases. Obviously, this new car has no such problem at all, and it is completely close to the ground and beautiful.

These engineers didn't know that when the Mazda RX-7 tried to hit the speed record in later generations, when it accelerated to 362 kilometers, the whole car flew up. This is because the shape aerodynamic design is unqualified.

"Three hundred and seventy-one kilometers." In the anticipation of everyone, the speedometer finally gave the speed measurement result just passed.

A group of engineers cheered again. Although this is not a car from their big factory, it is definitely worth applauding that private hand-built spare parts assembly can achieve this level. At this speed, the upper limit of the speedometer of most cars does not have this number.

Everyone's cheers are not for their respective companies, but for the pursuit of extreme technology and enthusiasm.

Ten minutes later, the second speed test was carried out again, and the second minute after the car passed by at high speed, the speedometer got a new record again.

"Three hundred and eighty-five kilometers per hour."

This speed is the official record of the Nürburgring Nordschleife management test. It is definitely not the result of cheating, and it is absolutely credible. And this number is so high, I am afraid that more than 99% of the people have never driven or taken a car.

The new record was once again cheered by the engineers present. They are all professionals. In fact, everyone knows that today's speed test should have been even better. It's just that the conditions here are limited, and it can't be compared with the results obtained on that kind of big and straight track, but the top speed of 385 kilometers is already really amazing. If it is replaced by that kind of big and straight track or airport, it may be able to hit 400 kilometers.

However, today's test result of 7 minutes and 29 seconds plus 385 kilometers is enough to prove that this new car is a sports car with excellent performance. Many engineers were moved and asked how Long Fei, Wan Ming and others could get a similar sports car.

Guo Tailai did not disappoint everyone too much, and told everyone frankly that the prototype car was handcrafted and the cost was high, but he plans to package and auction the design of this new model. If there are any major manufacturers who are interested, you can pay attention to these few news of the day.

Even if Guo Tailai doesn't say this, these remaining engineers will definitely report to their company after they go back. A high-performance sports car that can run in 7 minutes and 30 seconds is still designed and manufactured by a private person, and it will definitely arouse the attention of major manufacturers. Notice. Now Guo Tailai also took the initiative to express that he would auction off the model design, so what are you waiting for? The engineers will definitely work hard to spread the news.

Guo Tailai also firmly believes that the chassis tuning, gearbox and engine technology displayed by the new car will definitely attract the attention of major manufacturers. I just don't know how much this car is worth in the eyes of major manufacturers.

Back at the hotel, Guo Tailai directly got the four female employees of the company busy.

The official records of the New North Circuit, as well as the recent plan to hold a small auction in Germany to auction the overall model design, etc., prepare a copy of the Chinese, English and German versions, and then find the external contacts of major domestic car companies method, each faxed a copy in the past. Zhao Xiangbei was no exception, and faxed a copy of the same.

Next, just wait for the reactions of all parties.
