As for the name of the East China Sea Volkswagen 222 team, it can be said that as long as it is a Chinese driver, it is impossible not to know it.

This is a well-established professional team in China. It has won numerous honors in the CRC (China Automobile Rally Championship) and CTCC (China Motor Vehicle Championship). To this day, Han Han, a famous writer and driver, is still a member of the RV branch of the Volkswagen 222 team.

However, the glory of Volkswagen 222 team is divided into two stages. The first ten years of the 21st century were its peak in rallying. It won the domestic rallying championship for five consecutive years, and even won championships in different categories in the Asia-Pacific rallying championship and the highest palace of the rallying championship in WRC (World Rallying Championships).

The first generation Volkswagen POLO GTI is the model used in the glorious period of the 222 team's rally.

In other words, this is the championship racing car of the Donghai Volkswagen 222 team!

Only by becoming a driver of Volkswagen 222 during this period can we finally retain this champion model. Now it comes out in the warehouse of this repair shop. How did it come about?

With this doubt, Lin Xiangbei turned his eyes to the car next to him, which is also a famous car. However, unlike Volkswagen POLO, which entered the field of ordinary family cars, this car was born for the event. Its name is Mitsubishi EVO!

If ordinary people in China are the most familiar with Japanese performance cars, in addition to the "God of the Ultimate War" GTR, it may be the Mitsubishi EVO.

Because compared with other Japanese performance cars that are not launched in China, they can only be purchased through parallel imports. At least Mitsubishi EVO has a very similar twin brother. It was launched in China with the Mitsubishi Wing God model, and the sales were once pretty good.

So in a sense, the existence of Mitsubishi Wing God has encouraged the spread of Mitsubishi EVO's reputation in the country.

A similar example may be the later Honda Civic. Its high-performance version is called Civic Type      R. It is also not launched in China. The most conspicuous distinction between it and the regular Civic is the red Honda logo that represents sports and performance.

With the popularity of racing comics and movies like "Initial D", many ordinary versions of Civic in China have also turned their Honda logo into red.

Lin Xiangbei is not sure how much psychological performance has improved, but it does make the Red-Head Honda Mark and Civic Type     R well known to more ordinary people.

As a performance car, Mitsubishi EVO has never been shortlisted for the four major Japanese sports cars. The one who occupies this title is its former elder brother, Mitsubishi 3000GT!

Looking at it from the perspective of a RV in the field race, EVO is not as successful as GTR. It has won the title of "God of the Ultimate War" and has become the ultimate dream in the hearts of many young people. It still continues to write its own legend today.

But this does not mean that Mitsubishi EVO is a younger brother car. It is considered the purest race car among Japanese performance cars. From the day it was born, it has been fighting for the WRC rally!

Starting from the second-generation Mitsubishi EVO to win the first branch championship of WRC (World Rally Championship), the third-generation to the sixth-generation EVO have defended the WRC world championship title for four consecutive years.

Mitsubishi EVO may not have won the title of "God of the Ultimate War" for itself, but it has won the glory of "God of the Length" for itself!

The car in front of Lin Xiangbei is the sixth-generation Mitsubishi EVO and the last generation of EVO that won the championship title in WRC. It can be called the "last king".

After this generation of EVO, Mitsubishi's journey in WRC became stumbling and never achieved its former glory. So she chose to withdraw from the WRC competition in 2005 and eventually completely stopped production in 2015. Since then, EVO has become a history that people can remember.

Lin Xiangbei was not too curious about Mitsubishi EVO itself, because he basically opened all EVOs in his previous life, which can be said to be quite familiar with them.

Just like the Volkswagen POLO GTI in front, Lin Xiangbei is more concerned with the fleet logo posted on the body of the car, which represents the identity and source of the car.

This Mitsubishi EVO car does not post the logo of the Donghai Volkswagen Century Rookie Team, but has the logo of the Honghe Team of Yunnan Province. This is an existence that is not inferior to the Volkswagen 222 team in terms of old brands and fame.

Like Volkswagen 222, the Honghe team had a brilliant period of rallying performance in the first ten years of the 21st century. In these ten years, the Honghe team won five annual championships and sixteen sub-station championships.

Moreover, among the team members, there are also star drivers such as "Big Shadow" Cheng Kui'an and "Little Tornado" Lin Zhiying. It can be said that they are in the limelight and are in the Volkswagen 222 team supported by manufacturers.

Not only did the results look very similar, this Mitsubishi EVO     6 was also a chariot used by the Honghe team at its heyday. It can be said to be their champion model.

Now there are two championship cars in this warehouse that were once the top Chinese rally team. What does it mean behind it? Are these cars belonging to old alcoholics or the Uncle Shen I saw today?

Faced with the incomparable doubt in his heart, Lin Xiangbei looked at the third car. It was finally not a car, but an off-road vehicle, and the model was Nissan Paladin.

Lin Xiangbei is not as familiar as a performance car for off-road vehicles, so he directly turned his attention to the stickers on the body of the car.

This time it is another brand new logo, which says Shangdu Nissan Palatin Team in Chinese, but in addition to the team logo, the front hood is also covered with the Dakar Rally logo, indicating that this car has participated in the Paris-Dakar Rally.

The Dakar Rally is more famous in China than WRC, and domestic media have once reported it. The main reason is that the Dakar Rally has no restrictions on the participating drivers, which means that even if you are just an amateur, as long as you have money and energy, you can choose to participate.

Therefore, the Dakar Rally is also called the "Brave Game".

It is precisely because of the low threshold and the international event that many domestic rally drivers have given the opportunity to compete. WRC is more like the high-ranking F1. Even if it is ten years later, there are not many Chinese drivers who can cross this threshold.

When he saw this car, Lin Xiangbei had a name in his heart, but with the mentality of confirming it again, he continued to look at the next car.

As he expected, the professional team racing cars came to an abrupt end here. The few behind were just ordinary performance cars, and there was no logo on them.

At this point, Lin Xiangbei can already determine who it is, because the order of these cars is exactly the professional trajectory of the driver he knows.

This person is Han Han’s friend who commemorates the two movies "Riding the Wind and Waves" and "Flying Life", and the strongest rally driver in China - Xu Lang!

But the problem is, in Lin Xiangbei's memory, Xu Lang died in an accident in 2008. Could it be that the world has changed, he did not die, or for other reasons?

With shock and surprise inside, Lin Xiangbei turned around and looked at the old drunkard standing at the door.

"Uncle Xu, whose cars are these?"
