103 Demo Tournament

After breakfast, Zhang Yifei and Lu Ningping drove the Ford Mustang to the club. After experiencing the past half month of contact, the people in the club were basically familiar with each other. When they saw Zhang Yifei and the others coming, they greeted each other warmly.

Especially some little kids in the club treat Zhang Yifei as an idol. Every time he comes, a bunch of people gather around him, and he has a "kid king" attitude.

Because it was a weekend, the attendance rate of the students was very high. 18 of the 22 students were present, and five of them were relatively older students arrived. This was also the one that Lu Ningping greeted him in advance.

The Kart Club has had many simulation events before, and even internal kart events, but today's competition is completely different. Zhang Yifei used a 100cc kart to challenge a 125cc kart.

The 100cc kart is equivalent to the entry-level model in racing karts, which is about 15p horsepower, which is also a racing operation model in many outdoor kart racing stadiums.

Many people who have driven racing karts in later generations basically drive this kind of introductory kart. The price is cheap and there is no gear shifting mechanism and it is similar to an electric car. It is very suitable for beginners and ordinary people to entertain.

Except for Zhang Yifei, the other five students drove 125cc competitive karts, but they were different from the modified 125cc karts that Zhang Yifei had driven before. These are all ordinary models, providing about 20 to 25p horsepower, and also using continuously variable speeds.

The horsepower difference between the two karts is about 60%, but considering that Zhang Yifei is more than 1.7 meters tall and weighs about 70 kilograms, while other drivers around 14 years old generally weigh around 40 kilograms, which is nearly 30 kilograms, which is almost equivalent to Zhang Yifei's kart being ridden by one more person.

In other words, the real feeling of motivation may double the gap. The first time this "cross-level challenge" has occurred in the past few years since its establishment.

"Uncle Lu, the power gap is really big. You have to consider the weight difference. I feel that if I want to ride in this 100cc kart, it is questionable whether I can run."

"Don't doubt, you haven't reached the point where you can't pull at 15p horsepower."

Lu Ningping's answer was very cold, and he changed to the previous devil coaching posture.

Although his tone was cold, Lu Ningping actually valued Zhang Yifei very much in his heart. The reason why he did this was because this kid was too strong!

Half a month of kart training is no exaggeration to say that it is worth the effect of a newcomer who has no foundation in learning for one or two years. Whether it is the choice of detours or the restraint of his previous wrong instincts, Zhang Yifei's daily progress can be seen with the naked eye.

Moreover, Zhang Yifei is a real full-time kart driver. Even in terms of training time, the length of his real practice in half a month is equivalent to three months for other students. If he uses karts of the same level, the game may become unsuspecting.

"Okay, that's it."

There is no way, Zhang Yifei can only bite the bullet. Anyway, in the future karting event, he will not use 250cc super kart, so he should adapt in advance.

According to the regular process of karting, you should first run a few laps of tire warming and be familiar with the track. However, this is an internal event of the club, and everyone is very familiar with the track, so it is just a simple tire warming.

If it is a formal Formula racing, the tire warms up will run a qualifying race. This qualifying ranking will determine the driver's starting order. After all, the track is so wide. If there are too many drivers participating, the rear row will suffer a lot.

But at least it takes to go to the second-level international competitions to have regular qualifying processes. Generally, regional competitions omit the qualifying competitions and directly rank according to previous results. Because low-level competitions, the winning and losing decision points will not be in the gap between the front and back rows, and the powerful ones have long been far ahead. It is possible that the rookie is thrown one and a half circles, so ranking is not very important.

Similarly, there was no qualifying match in today's simulation event, and Zhang Yifei was directly ranked in the second row by Lu Ningping. This made Zhang Yifei helpless. What should he say that sports events should pay attention to fair competition?

At this time, Lu Ningping held the remote control in his hand and had a type of traffic light device at the starting point of the track. This is also a starting method that imitates the F1. As long as the green light comes on, it means the start of the competition.

All the drivers were ready and there was no tension in the race. Except for Zhang Yifei, the other students were very excited. Because this was their first time running such an "asymmetric" event. At the age of teenagers, they were always interested in novelties, and they were also curious about what the result would be.

The red light began to flash, and all riders were ready to start. When the green light came on, all six karts rushed over. Today, none of the six karts had a gear shift mechanism, so there was no saying that they would start ejection. Just step on the accelerator and it would be done.

The difference in displacement and weight, Zhang Yifei's kart can be said to be yelling but can't leave, and it feels like driving a tractor. At the beginning, Zhang Yifei was left behind far behind.

However, this kind of backwardness is expected. If Zhang Yifei can lead at the beginning, there will be a ghost. The real place to catch up and overtake will always be on the curve.

The track is different from the mountain road and the streets. The frequency of various types of curves on the track is much higher, and it also includes various curves of different speeds at low, medium and high to ensure that drivers can get more comprehensive simulation and training on the track.

So when I started to find out that it was nothing behind, I started to encounter a curve without running dozens of meters.

Turn 1 of the track is a regular left-turn curve. As long as you find a reasonable tangent, you can cut the bend perfectly. There is basically no need to brake and slow down, just collect oil.

Zhang Yifei's opponents are all students who have been training in the club for more than one year. They are naturally very familiar with these bends on the track. Everyone follows the previous training methods and regularly collects oil and looks for tangents to pass the corners.

However, when Zhang Yifei turned around, he did not have any gas-collecting action at all. He still stepped on the accelerator pedal to the bottom and went straight to the corner. The maximum speed of this 100cc kart will not exceed 100km/h after carrying Zhang Yifei's weight. To be precise, it is difficult to even 80km/h.

After experiencing the 250cc super kart training, the impact of the speed was significantly reduced for Zhang Yifei. This is like in the movie "Initial D", Wen Tai said that Tuohai and Akima ran too much, and it felt that the surrounding objects were getting slower and slower.

The relative speed that was amplified by a kart by two to three times has gradually become normal. When you get used to the speed of about 150km/h, the speed of 80km/h is simply slow motion for Zhang Yifei.

With the speed of the full throttle and the perfect tangent, the first corner passed and the disadvantages in the starting line were recovered.

When he saw this scene, Lu Ningping's hands began to tremble slightly. He thought that this simulation event would not be very difficult for Zhang Yifei, but it would take at least five laps to surpass all vehicles.
