Chapter 2421: Despairing Results

Liang Hongying seemed to be choked by something and started coughing violently.

After he finished coughing, he gasped and said, "I've seen through you two. You're both worthless! Luan Feng! Let me be clear, I won't give you a single cent. It's not that I'm stingy, but I'm not entirely confident in your ability to handle things. However, I have no problem sponsoring a few meals for you."

“How many meals a day do you sponsor?”

"You wish, one year!"

"You still say you're not stingy? You only sponsor a few meals a year." It was just a few dollars, and Luan Feng immediately lost interest.

At this time, Zhang Xuan leaned over and whispered a few words into Luan Feng's ear.

Luan Feng immediately laughed: "Look! Our Xuan'er is really smart. We have nearly a thousand companies in Nanwan. A sponsorship of 10,000 yuan from each company should be no problem. No, no, 10,000 yuan from each company is over 10 million yuan. That's too greedy. 5,000 yuan from each company will be enough."

Wan Feng was at a loss for words. If you accept money from someone, you have to give them a name. So whose brand are you going to put on your race car? Or all of them?

This racing car is really beautiful. Thousands of manufacturers just put a one-inch piece of paper on it to ensure that the car is colorful like Sister Hua.

It seems that Luan Feng is determined to maintain a fleet of cars, and he lost a lot of money this time.

After the women's group competition, it was the gasoline group competition of the manufacturer cup. The contestant from the Nanwan team was Lu Ningjun, and his companion in the same car was naturally Lai Baogui.

At that time, drivers were not allowed to contact the team once they entered the track, and the tactical arrangements and lap counting fell on the other person in the car.

This is what I came to Baogui to do.

The 2003 and 2004 track and field championships were still for two-person teams, but from 2005 onwards it became a single-person team.

However, the official men's final used a cycling scoring system.

This made Wan Feng speechless. How was this organized?

The competition systems for the preliminaries and finals are different. Could it be that Yi Binghua is trying to do something wrong?

But this is impossible. How could he tamper with such a large electronic clock?

Wan Feng used the intercom to inform Guo Xian and asked him to arrange someone to keep an eye on the electronic timer to prevent the other party from tampering with the time.

The Pinggu track is relatively small and narrow, which is indeed more suitable for the bicycle timing system, and the car has to run four laps on the track.

It’s not like a dozen years later when there was an additional tactical circle, where you just had to keep running.

The cars for the Manufacturer's Cup gasoline group have entered the track. Lu Ningjun is the second driver to start, followed by two off-road drivers.

The first driver was a driver from the Pajero team.

When the green flag waved and the countdown reached zero, the first driver took off.

After one lap, even though Wan Feng was not a professional racing driver, he could see that the horsepower of these two Pajero racing cars was average and their acceleration was not good at all.

After completing the entire race, the driver of the Pajero achieved a time of 4 minutes 31.53 seconds.

Wan Feng shook his head. It was impossible to get into the top three with this result.

Unlike later cross-country races where the race usually takes more than six minutes, on this Pinggu track, you can't even think of entering the finals in five minutes, let alone six minutes.

The results in yesterday's preliminaries were generally a little over four minutes, and the No. 9 Nissan Patrol Y60 driven by Ling Mingguang and Zhu Zhimin of the Beijing Off-Road Team ranked first in Group B with a time of three minutes and 46.88 seconds.

Therefore, Wan Feng concluded that the Pajero driver's performance could not even make it into the top three.

As the timer numbers continued to decrease, the summit driven by Lu Ningjun continued to roar.

Although major modifications are not allowed to the manufacturer's cup cars, modifications to the chassis and tire casings are still allowed in order to increase ground clearance and driver safety.

For example, the cab has been reinforced, with steel bars everywhere.

The tires are also specially made. The treads on the tires are higher and larger than those on ordinary car tires, which makes it easier for the racing car to grip the road.

In order to reduce the weight of the car, almost everything that had nothing to do with the race was removed, including the headlights, leaving two holes.

This way, when the driver steps on the accelerator, he can hear the roar of the engine.

It was the first time that Wan Feng heard that the engine of a top-tier vehicle could make such a loud noise.

The moment time returned to zero, Lu Ningjun's car rushed out.

The design of the Pinggu racecourse is very interesting. If you look at it from a high altitude, it looks like a peach blossom. 16 obstacles, including U-shaped channels, narrow roads, single-sided bridges, continuous high slopes, muddy roads, high earth slopes, water crossings, car racing platforms, splash pools, Z-shaped woods, craters, sand and gravel pits, fish scale pits, continuous bends and seesaws, are arranged on the petals of this peach blossom.

Lu Ningjun's racing car is like a bee dancing on a peach blossom, its dance light and swift.

Yi Binghua on the rostrum had a gloomy expression on his face. According to Lu Ningjun's current performance, his car might produce a result that would make other drivers despair.

This is something he doesn't want to see.

Tang Yao also had a grim expression on his face. His grim expression was not entirely due to Lu Ningjun's performance, but because he was severely scolded by Yi Binghua last night.

Can he be blamed for this?

Who knows where this Blue Ocean Team came from? I've never heard of anyone taking it seriously!

Yi Binghua's guess was correct. When Lu Ningjun's car crossed the finish line, the time froze at three minutes, fifty-seven seconds and forty-seven seconds.

This is a new record in Pinggu, breaking the manufacturer's cup racing record set by the Off-Road Team yesterday.

The event record was shortened by 1.23 seconds.

This result even surpassed the Group A result of 3 minutes 57.75 seconds of the Cherokee race car driven by Yan Bohu and Li Juan of the Beijing Jeep Hummingbird Team.

When this result came out, the drivers who were going to participate in the competition shook their heads with a wry smile.

They are in the Manufacturer's Cup, not the Unlimited Modified Group. You actually achieved a Group A result. The rest of the drivers couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Tang Yao! Do you think an unmodified racing car can achieve such a result?" Yi Binghua asked Tang Yao.

"Boss Yi! Theoretically, it's impossible. Even our cars in the Unlimited Modified category can't achieve such a result."

The cars in Group B have engines with over 300 horsepower, while the cars in the manufacturer group have a horsepower of only 170 to 180 at best, which are not at the same level at all.

"Then is it possible that the other party's engine has been modified?"

"It's hard to say."

"Whether it's good or bad, I'll file a complaint first. I seriously doubt their cars have been significantly modified."

Tang Yao stood up and filed a complaint with the arbitration committee.

In fact, he knew that it would be unnecessary to file a complaint.

After all the racing is finished, a post-race inspection will be carried out and the results of any problematic cars will be cancelled.

But he also felt that there was something wrong with the Blue Ocean Team's car.

He had privately learned that the engine of the Blue Ocean Team's top racing car had 190 horsepower. Even if the driver was the famous Lu Ningjun, he should not have achieved such a result.

Half an hour later, the remaining four cars also finished the whole course. The two drivers of the off-road team tried their best but still couldn't get within three minutes.

If nothing unexpected happens, the first place in the Manufacturer Cup Gasoline Group will go to the Blue Ocean Team.
