053 Acceleration pressure

The car speed is soaring, but the subsequent changes are not as easy as Zhang Yifei thought, because the huge g value brought by every corner has begun to affect Zhang Yifei.

When the kart turns at close to 100km/h, because there is no suspension roll and seat wrapping to support it, it almost always relies on the body to fight this g value of about twice the weight.

It's okay to say that my body is just a bit stressful. The most uncomfortable thing is Zhang Yifei's neck. Because he was driving a high-speed kart, he chose a heavy-duty protective helmet and did not wear a neck protection. The weight of the helmet is two kilograms. Under the influence of the g value of the curve, the weight of the helmet is equivalent to two to three times. A thing weighing about ten kilograms has been hung on the neck. It's okay for a short time, but the feeling of being uncomfortable for a long time can be imagined.

This is why the top drivers have very strong physical fitness and have very developed neck muscles. Zhang Yifei could tell at first that Lu Ningping was not simple. Zhang Yifei had experienced professional neck muscle training in his previous life, and he was just a high school student with good health in this life. After more than ten laps, he started to struggle.

However, as Lu Ningping said, top drivers are also in spirit in addition to their bodies, and Zhang Yifei is the kind of person who can persist. Even though he has felt the heavy pressure from the g value, he still grits his teeth and finds the best way to make a detour. He uses the improvement of each lap to be faster than zero seconds, refreshing his lap speed over and over again.

Until the fiftieth lap, Zhang Yifei finally couldn't hold on anymore, and it had been an hour since he got on the kart.

When he ran the starting line of the last lap, Zhang Yifei began to slow down and parked the kart on the side of the road, and then took off his helmet with great effort. At this moment, Zhang Yifei seemed to have been washed, his hair was completely wet, and his huge physical strength was no less than that of running a rally in his previous life. This body is good among ordinary high school students, but it is still incomparable to professional drivers.

Lu Ningping came over with a stopwatch at this time. It was not surprising that he looked at Zhang Yifei's tired look, because he had already reminded before that karting was not as simple as he imagined.

But Lu Ningping also had something unexpected, that is, Zhang Yifei adapted too quickly. Even if he had the driving skills as a basis, this adaptation speed was extremely amazing. Just as he just pinched the stopwatch, Zhang Yifei's fastest lap speed had reached more than 56 seconds, which was a full second faster than the current lap record of the venue!

You should know that lap record is similar to the 100-meter race record. Each refresh is basically a slight gap of 0:00 seconds, or even a 0:00 seconds. If you think about it, it is like throwing your opponent for one second directly, then it can simply make your opponent treat you as an alien, unless you are a professional player running with an ordinary person.

However, the problem now is that Zhang Yifei is considered an ordinary person in comparison, and the previous lap record holder has been a kart driver who has been trained for several years. Even if the Wind Chasing Club cannot be considered a first-class kart club, even if the lap record holder is just a teenager, various objective reasons cannot conceal Zhang Yifei's shock of breaking the record.

"Uncle Lu, how are I running? What's the fastest lap?"

Zhang Yifei asked a little tiredly. In the highly concentrated racing state, he had no energy to predict his grades at all.

"56.2 seconds, more than a second faster than the club's fastest lap speed at the moment."

"Just just over a second?"

Zhang Yifei replied with a little dissatisfaction. If you convert this time, your average speed is less than 80km/h. This speed is still a bit slower for him. Zhang Yifei's initial goal was to run into the 55-second mark.

If Zhang Yifei's memory in his previous life is correct, he has read the information of a Donghai International Kart Club, and the scale seems to have reached the international B-level standard. In the same length and curve situation, the best result should be within 45 seconds. The difference between him is a bit big.

Of course, if you finish running a long track in 45 seconds, you need a high-power kart, or even the top superkart, and your horsepower can exceed 100 horses, but Zhang Yifei is not sure about these. He just simply remembers the fastest time.

"It's not satisfying that you're more than a second faster? This is your first time getting involved in karting, and it's a completely unfamiliar track. You have to know that some students here have practiced for a few years, but the record has been broken so easily by you. How desperate should they be?"

"The problem is that they are all a bunch of kids."

"Aren't you a teenager?"

"I……"

Lu Ningping asked in reverse, leaving Zhang Yifei speechless. He was not much older than the students in the club.

"Okay, there is a shower room behind the garage. You can go and wash your sweat first, that's all today."

Zhang Yifei nodded after hearing this. He was indeed sweating profusely, and it was impossible for him to get rid of such things as racing. Today I was just getting in touch with karts, and I still have some time to get started.

Watching Zhang Yifei go to the shower room behind the garage, Lu Ningping looked at the recorded lap speed on the stopwatch and fell into deep thought.

To be honest, Lu Ningping did not agree with Zhang Yifei's intention to participate in Formula Racing before. Even though Zhang Yifei has shown amazing driving skills, Formula Racing is far more difficult to get started than ordinary people imagine. Not to mention the rest, Zhang Yifei has no hope for the age limit alone.

However, in that environment, when facing the dream of a boy, it was hard to pour cold water as an elder, so he agreed. He thought that he would fly to Hong Kong Island in the future and let him feel the difference between karts and racing cars. After recognizing these gaps and reality, maybe this kid would retreat by himself.

Then I will persuade you, and then use some relationships in the past to make Zhang Yifei's trial training in the professional team more smoothly, and then move towards the direction of rally. As for the dream of becoming a Formula driver, just treat it as a distant dream for a young man. Who didn't have many dreams that could not be realized when he was young?

However, Zhang Yifei's performance today made Lu Ningping start to doubt his previous choice. The first time he came into contact with the kart track broke the lap record of his club, which was definitely a very amazing talent.

Unlike ordinary drivers who pay attention to working hard to change their destiny, the first thing that top Formula drivers is to be talented. If they don’t have amazing talent enough, I’m sorry, no matter how hard they try, they may not be able to catch up with others. This is the cruel reality.

Take Lu Ningping’s own club students as an example. There are currently 22 students here. How many of them can become F1 drivers in the future? The answer is that none of them are. Not to mention F1, there may not even be F3-level Formula drivers. If you take a step back, someone here can get a ranking in Formula Elementary Cars, which may be considered the peak of your life.

Zhang Yifei has shown extraordinary racing talent, which is the most important basis. He is indeed older than 16 years old, and F1 drivers have also shown a trend of becoming younger and younger, but this is not absolute. Take Damon Hill, a driver who participated in the first race in 1992. He was already 32 years old that year, but he won the world championship in 1996.
