I am farming in the real world

Chapter 210: Pedal to the Metal!

This sudden historical TOP2 lap time caused a clamor in the entire pit lane.

People were taking photos and sending messages.

Even some automotive media people received good news from the Nürburgring early in the morning.

As the world's racing mecca, the Nürburgring's racing results are posted on the internet 24 hours a day, and there are even professional live broadcast channels capturing the action on site.

In addition, the lap record broken this time was the second-fastest, and it was broken on a public open day, including the record-breaking model being a brand-new, unknown, mysterious Chinese car.

All these factors combined caused a considerable sensation in the foreign racing world.

Some internationally renowned car review show hosts, such as Jeremy Clarkson from the original Top Gear, forwarded this shocking news for all racing enthusiasts on his personal social media.

"Incredible! The Nürburgring's second-fastest lap record has been broken by an unknown model! We don't even know what kind of power system it has!" Jeremy commented.

"Chinese cars are not just about to come to us, but have already entered Europe and even broken the Nürburgring lap record," James May, the slow-speed captain, also forwarded this live news.

"If it's a Chinese car, it should be a pure electric sports car. Like NIO's EP9, I can't wait to drive it," Richard Hammond, known as the Hamster, is also the only host among the trio who embraces pure electric models, giving a very high evaluation of this unknown domestic model.

After all, countless models go to the Nürburgring every year to sprint and set lap times, but the ones that can truly be named on the list, and in such a high position, almost only appear every few years.

However, just as the international racing community was buzzing with discussion.

Chen Jue, who was speeding on the track, had an excited look on his face at this moment, stepping hard on the accelerator, while keeping a close eye on the road conditions ahead, while listening to Tie Yi's real-time track navigation in his ear.

That kind of speed and passion experience made him experience the driving pleasure of a supercar for the first time.

"Awesome! The power doesn't stop no matter how much I step on it, it's like there's no limit."

"No wonder those rich second generations like to play with cars so much, they buy supercars, this kind of acceleration experience is too exciting," Chen Jue sighed in his heart.

The reason why he was able to easily break the Nürburgring's lap record after running two laps is not because of how good his driving skills are, but because of the explosive performance of this Zotye ZT700, which was modified by MC materials, and that he replaced the MC diamond suit in his racing suit, bringing the defense to the maximum.

To be on the safe side, Chen Jue also specially put a life-saving item in his [Backpack] before coming, the famous [Gold Ingot] × 8 + [Apple] = [Golden Apple] from the MC game.

[Golden Apple: A special food that can restore a certain amount of health and hunger value after consumption. In addition, it will provide 2 minutes of damage absorption effect and 5 seconds of 'Health Regeneration II' effect.]

In the MC game, the existence of [Golden Apple], like [Healing Potion], is a life-saving artifact for outdoor PVP or exploring the Nether.

As long as you are not instantly killed, Steve can be saved even with a sliver of health left.

In addition, the ZT700 has 8 airbags installed in the entire car. With such layers of BUFF stacking, Chen Jue is not afraid even if he really rolls over or crashes in the Nürburgring.

Since the worries about safety have been resolved, then for Chen Jue, all that remains is to weld his foot to the accelerator.

All kinds of fancy operations such as extreme cornering and running to 400 kilometers per hour on the straight were played by Chen Jue.

Chen Jue himself is an old driver with 10 years of driving experience, and he is also a cheater who is not afraid of death in terms of mentality.

After driving two laps to familiarize himself with the terrain, he went all out in the whole process, and then easily broke the Nürburgring's TOP2 lap record in the third lap!

When Chen Jue drove the ZT700 into the pit lane after experiencing the thrill and excitement of the Nürburgring and completely enjoying himself, the surrounding foreign mechanics and Zotye's technical team all burst into applause and cheers.

"Congratulations bro! You are the hero of the Nürburgring today!"

"6 minutes 03 seconds 21, this is a legendary moment!"

"Brother Jue is awesome!"

"Zotye is awesome!"

The crowd was cheering, and the atmosphere was very enthusiastic.

Even the local Nürburgring-based automotive media surrounded them with cameras and microphones, wanting to interview them.

They wanted to know the parameters and performance of this mysterious supercar, as well as the manufacturer behind it.

After all, breaking the Nürburgring's lap record will not only make the model a legend, but the driver will also be permanently recorded on the list along with the record.

In addition, many Chinese faces also appeared in this pit lane area.

Like the Xiaomi team who also came to test the lap time, and car critics like [Top Gear China] who also took the opportunity to come to the pit lane area to record programs.

When they saw the Nürburgring lap time TOP list that they had dreamed of, and it was taken down by this unfamiliar Zotye car, Lei BuSi, Li Yuan, Wang Jack, Nana and others all showed very exciting expressions on their faces.

It's like the village idiot that the whole village looked down on the most when they were young suddenly became a billionaire one day, sitting in a luxury car with a driver and bodyguard, returning to the village in glory to visit relatives.

That kind of entanglement and complexity, as well as the heartfelt pride for the rise of domestic cars, were all intertwined.

"It would be great if it was our Xiaomi SU7 that broke the TOP2 record!" Lei BuSi stared at the list and couldn't help but sigh, and a kind of illusion of 'Why did Yu Shengliang produce Liang' suddenly appeared in his heart.

Before coming to set the lap time, the Xiaomi team even thought of a publicity plan for the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra.

If they can get into the Nürburgring's historical TOP10, then they will do normal positive copywriting publicity.

Once the lap time is unfavorable, if it's not good, they will establish some unpopular lists themselves.

For example, using the ranking of 'Nürburgring's Fastest Four-Door Production Car' NO.1, play some word games to fool outsiders who don't understand the racing circle, giving people a feeling of being incomprehensible.

However, with Zotye's ZT700 setting the TOP2 of the total list, the Xiaomi team's original publicity plan was all in vain.

It's equivalent to the PPT being done for nothing!

Even when he saw Chen Jue, this young man under 30 years old, coming down from the driver's seat under the spotlight, Lei BuSi even quickened his pace and squeezed out of the crowd to come to the front and said: "Congratulations, General Jue. I have always heard about your company's technical strength on the Internet before. I didn't expect to come to the Nürburgring to witness history today!"

When Chen Jue saw the famous Xiaomi founder Lei BuSi in person, his face was slightly stunned, and he almost shouted out the famous scene of 'Are you OK?' in person to respond.

"General Lei, I have admired your name for a long time! But you are too polite. It's just a TOP2 lap time. It's not too late to open the champagne after taking the top spot on the list later," Chen Jue straightened his expression, glanced at the list on the big screen and started his usual Versailles tone.

"Take the top spot record?"

"General Jue is so confident?" Lei BuSi was numb when he heard this. It was the first time he had seen a young man pretending to be in front of him.

Including Wang Jack and other domestic car critics, they were also stunned when they heard Chen Jue's 'bold words'!

Because in their eyes, it is already very remarkable for a domestic supercar to break the TOP2 record.

This lap time is equivalent to the Chinese national football team playing football in the World Cup and defeating England, the United States, France, Germany, Japan, and South Korea, and finally fighting bloody battles with Spain or Brazil in the final and unfortunately losing to win the World Cup runner-up, which is incredible.

After all, the Nürburgring's lap time Top1 is a myth for the entire racing world!

That has always been in a disconnected way, and can even be said to be a dimensionality reduction blow!

Don't look at the original Top2 score of 6 minutes 05 seconds 34 being taken by Volkswagen's ID. R electric supercar, but it is almost a minute away from the 5 minutes 19 seconds 55 created by the Top1 Porsche 919 Hybird Evo.

When Porsche used the new technology of oil-electric hybrid to set this heaven-defying Nürburgring lap time in 2018, some car critics even predicted that this lap time record would be maintained for at least 20 years without being broken.

Now, from 2018 to now, a full 6 years have passed, and the heaven-defying record of 5 minutes 19 seconds 55 has been standing firmly at the top of the list without moving.

Not to mention breaking it, even the second model that can run into 6 minutes in the Nürburgring has not yet appeared!

Because Porsche has spent a lot of technology and effort in creating this almost mythical record.

First of all, the design of the 919 Hybird Evo is based on the next-generation rally sports car model. Although the horsepower system matched by the vehicle is only 1160 horsepower, its total body mass is only 849 kg. Whether it is aerodynamics or the lightweight of the whole car, it has reached the peak of current human automotive technology.

Paired with Timo Bernhard, a driver who has won 5 Nürburgring lap time championships and 2 Le Mans 24 Hours endurance race championships.

Countless factors have been combined to achieve the legendary record that has dominated the list for 6 years.

Even if Hamilton, second only to the king of racing Schumacher, drives the F1 car of the World Formula One Championship to the Nürburgring, he can't run past this Porsche 919Hybird Evo, and the fastest he can squeeze into is a lap time of 6 minutes 29 seconds.

It is conceivable how difficult it is to break the TOP1 of the Nürburgring lap time.

It's as difficult as climbing to the sky!

Of course, Chen Jue didn't say much about the doubts of Lei BuSi and a group of domestic car critics.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with the crowd that had gathered around, he walked slowly towards the passenger side amidst their puzzled gazes. He knocked on the window, which was covered with privacy film, and said, "Tie Yi, it's your turn to perform!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone, including Lei Busi and even the foreign pilots, widened their eyes and felt their scalps tingle, as if they had seen a ghost.

"Holy... crap! That TOP2 lap time from just now, was actually achieved with President Jue carrying a passenger?"

"With nearly 100 kilograms of extra weight, are they sure they're trying to set a lap record? Or just taking a leisurely drive?"

"WTF???"

"This ZT700 really seems to have a chance of topping the leaderboard!"
