"15 seconds." Qi Yuan checked his watch, "Okay, the speed is getting faster and faster. It's ridiculously fast."
"How old is Wen Yuan now?"
"He usually comes to our place to run three days a week. The fastest time he ran was over 14 seconds. Two days ago, he seemed to have a sign. The other times were around 16.5 seconds. But the speed of both of you is the same. It’s outrageous, it took us over twenty seconds to run the course last year.”
Although the difference was only about 10 seconds, Shangluo knew that this value was already outrageous. Because the test track in the school is very small, there is almost no room for straight-line acceleration. Almost the entire process tests the ability to curve, and fast curves are really fast. Track-level corners are much more forgiving than these, and the gaps between the corners are almost as long as the straights of this small proving ground.
If the space were larger, the speed would be even more ridiculous. On this kind of mini track that completely tests the "curving ability", it is not easy to open for one or two seconds, but to open for 10 seconds is simply outrageous. The entire formula race has never released such a powerful performance in its history.
"I feel that this time we can create the same impact as the White Star back then - when the White Star suddenly raised the performance of the entire event to a higher level. Well, here you go." As she said that, she The Coke with a straw in it was handed to Shangluo.
When I received it, the Coke was still ice cold. He lifted up his helmet, held a Coke in both hands and handed it to the side of the helmet, and then drank it with a straw.
"By the way." Shangluo suddenly remembered, "Do you know the situation of the White Star?"
"Are you asking about the fleet or the car?"
"Ask both."
"As for the team, the results don't actually mean much to them. The White Star is from the High School Affiliated to the Imperial College, and the High School Affiliated to the Imperial College can go directly to the Imperial College with the on-campus examination - because the entrance exam for the High School Affiliated to the Imperial College is much more difficult than the imperial examination itself."
"So that's it. Then they are doing it entirely to show their strength?"
"Well, it is true to a certain extent. In fact, because there is no pressure, they usually take a longer period to prepare for the event, because for them 'finishing the project' and creating a 'miracle' is the most important thing . And even after graduation, as long as they have played a significant role within the project, they will still be regarded as a member of the team. We are different."
She curled her lips: "We only have three years at most. If we don't get it, we will lose. Their car production cycle is about 50% longer than ours. Many times they will bring semi-finished products to the competition and then modify them while competing. This year It would be even more outrageous to abandon the race. It is estimated that they are very confident in creating a 'third generation' formula car next year and want to integrate the advantages of all the teams this year and win the championship in one fell swoop."
"Do you think it's possible?"
"It should be us, Tiandao Shadow Puppet, who has accomplished this achievement. But I don't know if our successor next year can keep up with this pace. Even if we win this year, we may still be surpassed next year. All technologies are It's open to the public. Give them a year and they can integrate it all. It's not like they don't have Qigong pilots. Alas, if they are pulled apart next year, this historic achievement will be counted on their heads. .”
"But they are really powerful." Shangluo thought of the "White Star" flying in the sky, which could be regarded as some kind of "magical weapon". Because that hypersonic test machine completely relies on acetonite fuel to fly, and a shock wave wind tunnel driven by acetonite was also used during the development process.
He could even imagine the Tianyi nobles working there - because the time that these shock wave wind tunnels can create hypersonic speeds is very short, and the working time at 30 times the speed of sound is only 100 milliseconds. This isn't a movie, it's scientific research. Therefore, the Tianyi nobles there need to record the experimental phenomena accurately and at the frame rate of "high-speed photography".
The team that was able to carry out experiments with cutting-edge technology and complete that aircraft was truly amazing.
"That's why such a powerful team can send the White Star into the sky."
"Eh? You know that too?"
"I only found out about it after participating in the competition. The intelligence network among students is very powerful, and this is a big deal. The White Star often circles around in the sky. This is not an urban legend at all, it has been confirmed. The story is actually that they reorganized after they were 30 years old. It's very romantic. After more than ten years, they reunited and then started research again under the original name. I heard that this time, some of them returned to school. Go and guide the development of the White Star 2 racing car.”
"Huh? What about next year?"
"Alas." Qi Yuan sighed, "Next year, we will graduate. There is nothing we can do about sighing. I don't know if anyone can keep up with our progress next year. After this year's competition, there are still three months left in the semester. We will start from At that time, preparations for the handover will begin. I hope that some talented students will sign up by then, but it’s a pity that even Han Xingzhi only signed up in his sophomore year of high school.”
"By the way, how did you get up and come over to compete?"
Han Xingzhi happened to walk to the side.
"I, um, don't have any special reason. You see, I'm a mysterious cultivator, so this kind of thing actually doesn't have much to do with me. But I have to tell you a reason, probably just for this. Wait, I'll give it to you Just change the hatch cover and you’ll know.”
He used an electric screwdriver to remove the screws from Shangluo's hatch cover. Several people came over to remove the hatch cover, and then put another one on - it was put on lightly, much lighter than the original one.
"Although you have always insisted on this design, it still feels weird."
Until now, Shangluo has always felt that this hatch cover was outrageous. That is to say, he is not afraid of accidents of this level, otherwise he would not dare to drive this car.
"Hehe, now this is the original purpose of installing the hatch cover. Even the aerodynamic characteristics of the hatch cover itself are just an excuse. Just watch it and don't say it everywhere. Try it now?"
"What is it? Okay, let's try it first." He handed over the Coke can, held the steering wheel with both hands, and closed the hatch from above.
drop--
There was a sound of power being turned on, and the front lit up. Pictures are projected on the transparent hatch: speed, wind direction, humidity, and weather pictures are projected on the hatch, and the runway route map is projected in the upper right corner.
"Huh? What the hell are you talking about?"
"I installed the white rainbow mirror from Jin Yiwei's armor into the hatch! Isn't it super cool! Look at the folder on the right that also integrates the Tetris module. Isn't it super cool!"
