Autumn famous mountain bike god is reborn

"If you're worried about this," Takahashi Ryosuke couldn't help but laugh, "When you leave 86 with me tonight, I'll ask the technician to fix it for you."

Just a little scratch, just relying on the tools in the ONEBOX of the RedSuns team is enough.

"Wow!"

Suddenly hearing another person's voice, Fujiwara Takumi, who was still immersed in talking to himself, was instantly taken aback!

Fortunately, his body was tightly bound by the deliberately tightened seat belt, and his body's control instinct was too strong, so the 86 driving at high speed was not disturbed much.

Takahashi Ryosuke raised his eyebrows slightly, and said sincerely: "Sorry, I answered the phone without authorization. I didn't expect to scare you."

"Uh, no, it's not Mr. Ryosuke's fault."

Although Fujiwara Takumi was still in a state of shock, he still subconsciously refused to accept Mr. Ryosuke's apology, and explained in a stumbling manner: "It's mainly me...well, it's been a long time since I took anyone on the passenger seat."

In the years when he was a hard-working rally driver who competed everywhere for WRC qualifications, there was always a navigator on the co-pilot.

But because he has always acted like a lone wolf and finally signed with the Toyota Field Team, the navigator can't be called fixed at all, and he always changes.

Because the partners in the temporary group could not be called tacit understanding, in order to facilitate the exchange of information, he gradually developed the habit of talking to himself, but actually telling the navigator about his own situation.

But after that car accident, no one sat in his co-pilot again.

Even if he overcomes psychological barriers through a long rehabilitation, regains control of the steering wheel, and even performs daily driving and a small amount of high-intensity training... Since he will not officially participate in the competition, of course he does not need to lead the pilot.

Takahashi Ryosuke quietly stared at the profile of Fujiwara Takumi.

He keenly caught the melancholy that slowly emerged in the clear tea-brown eyes when the other party said the words just now.

His mind moved slightly, and he whispered, "Sorry, it affected you."

"It's really not Ryosuke's fault." Fujiwara Takumi calmed down a little, his eyes gradually returned to calm, and said without hesitation, "If it's Ryosuke's fault, I'll get used to it soon."

He did what he said.

After re-realizing that Ryosuke was sitting next to him, Takumi, who broke free from the ecstasy of driving just now, still superbly controlled the 86 for a perfect four-wheel drift, but quietly adjusted his sitting posture.

From the original relaxed and sloppy, to stopping the waist without a trace, the expression is also deliberately serious.

Ryosuke Takahashi laughed softly: "It's indeed my problem."

Without waiting for Takumi Fujiwara to speak, he continued slowly with a gentle smile: "After all, in the past five years, you probably haven't delivered any talking tofu."

Fujiwara Takumi was taken aback.

After digesting the teasing in the words, he pursed his lips in a panic, and the roots of his ears accidentally burned: "Mr. Liangjie Z!"

In his impression, Mr. Ryosuke has always been calm, calm, absolutely rational, yet gentle.

But this kind of words that are obviously meant to be joking and intimate... He has never heard Mr. Ryosuke say it.

He could clearly feel the sight from the left side, and his cheeks were flushed with heat.

Fujiwara Takumi barely restrained his fluctuating mood, and with a seemingly serious but actually flustered expression, he babbled nonsense without knowing it: "If that's the case, Ryosuke must be the most handsome tofu .”

How could his stinky dad, who smokes all day long, make such handsome tofu.

"The most handsome tofu" Takahashi Ryosuke laughed, and responded gently: "Really? Thank you for your compliment."

Fujiwara Takumi opened his eyes wide to cover up, as if he was staring intently at the road.

But secretly added a sentence in my heart.

If Mr. Ryosuke was really tofu, he wouldn't have sent it to the hot spring hotel on the top of the mountain to be eaten by the guests.

He will never give up.

The complete opposite of the subdued atmosphere in AE86 is...

SIL-80's Mako Sato and Shayuki had just had a round of quarrel, and the atmosphere was still a little stiff.

Sato Mako, who put all her energy into driving and never glanced in the rearview mirror, was really disappointed that she couldn't get rid of 121 at C86, which was regarded as the last hole card.

But after being followed by the other party for most of the time, she actually already had such a premonition in her heart, so she calmed down quickly.

In any case, the remaining 1/3 of the distance is extremely narrow, and there is no room for the 86 to overtake.

Besides, she was too flustered before, if you look carefully a few more times, you can find that 86 has never shown any aggressiveness from the beginning to the end, and probably will not make dangerous moves to overtake.

In this case, as long as the status quo is maintained and the starting position is maintained until the end of the first round, it will be fine.

In the second round of switching positions, although she already knew that her chances of winning were slim, she could at least observe 86's running style up close.

Unlike Makoto, whose mentality is gradually recovering, Sha Xue clearly saw the scene where they were almost in parallel with them in the middle of the curve C121, and finally even rushed out of the corner with a more ideal route than Makoto. .

The disparity in strength between the two sides was clearly laid out in front of her.

Even she couldn't help losing her fighting spirit, so how could she comfort and encourage Makoto?

Sha Xue's loss of soul directly prevented her from reminding Mako in the next few high-speed corners.

After Mako almost rushed over her head, she screamed in panic.

Mako finally found out that she had given up fighting privately, so she couldn't help arguing with her.

Fortunately, there is not much distance left.

The two quarreling quickly reconciled, and SIL-80 and 86 arrived at the finish line one after the other, and the distance between the two cars was close to zero.

"Then let's change positions, Mr. Panda 86."

After the two cars returned to the top of the mountain, which was the starting point before, Sha Xue pressed down the car window and stretched out an arm to signal.

Fujiwara Takumi also lowered the car window politely, and obediently responded: "Okay."

The moment he saw his face clearly, Sha Xue couldn't help but let out a "huh".

Although there are few road lights on the Ubing Mountain, there is a street light just above the starting point, which allows her to see clearly the appearance of the 86 drivers at this time.

"Hey, are you okay?" Sha Xue frowned and became concerned: "Why is your face so red? Is it too hot tonight?"

Although May is already very close to summer, the weather is getting hotter.

But it was after ten o'clock in the evening, and she had never heard of someone who could drive until he got heatstroke at night on the ice!

"what?"

Fujiwara Takumi opened his eyes slightly, and after a brief moment of stupefaction, his face suddenly became redder.

How come—Ryosuke didn't even remind him!

"No, it's not hot...uh."

Fujiwara Takumi's face turned even redder when he heard a deep, pleasant chuckle from the left co-driver, which was clear enough for him to hear clearly.

Ryosuke said Z first, maybe on purpose.

"...It's a little hot."

He said awkwardly, and raised the car window again in an evasive manner, avoiding Sha Xue's suspicious eyes.

"What?" Sha Xue turned around and said to Mako strangely: "There are still such young boys now? It's so embarrassing to say a word or two."

Before Mako could speak, she rolled her eyes and smiled slyly: "But he is so cute, the more I look at him, the more I like him."

"Saxue."

Mako glanced helplessly at his mood-changing partner: "Don't forget you're still in the game."

Sha Xue waved his hand and said firmly, "I know! I won't pour cold water on you like before, don't worry."

Half a minute later, AE86 turned around neatly on the narrow road and switched positions with SIL-80.

"In the first round, we have shown our strongest strength. No matter what the result of the second round is, we have no regrets. So be happy, don't bring any pressure, just go for it with all your strength!" Before departure, Shaxue gave a final encouragement to Mako: "Follow behind this time, although you can observe his running style, but remember not to be disturbed by his rhythm like last time!"

Mako couldn't help but clenched the steering wheel, and said firmly: "I know, there won't be a second time for such a thing."

"I believe in you, we are the best partners for Usui!"

After Sha Xue finished speaking with a smile, she immediately changed her tone: "86 is activated!"

After the two cars passed the first corner at a moderate speed, the second round of the race officially began.

The AE86 driver, who is not blocked by the car in front, does not have the shyness just now on his face, but the calmness when he has absolute control.

He lowered his eyes slightly, and his left hand that shifted gears was about to leave an afterimage. At the same time, he stepped on the accelerator with his right foot and began to accelerate unreservedly.

On the extremely dangerous Ubing Mountain Road with repeated overlapping of sharp S-turns, the AE86 went straight to a speed of 125 per hour.

After rushing to the entrance of C2 at a high speed with suicidal terror, with the piercing sound of "嘎哒——", the black and white car body skidded suddenly, and a hearty reverse flick performance began.

Left-right-left-right.

"My God."

Sha Xue looked dazed, and gasped in a "hiss".

"Then how can a car do it?!"

Mako, who didn't speak, was shocked beyond measure.

No wonder no matter how she ran just now, she couldn't get rid of the other party who was haunting the rear of the car like a ghost.

When the 86 is in an undisturbed leading position, when it can show its superb technology at will, even if it is only the tip of the iceberg, it is enough to make the car behind Z feel desperate.

The so-called reverse flick means that when the car body is flicking in C2, the driver quickly twists the steering wheel left and right to temporarily restore the grip of the rear wheels.

Under the reaction force of Z in this way, and then let the body drift in the opposite direction, the rear of the car can swing like a pendulum, and go through the complicated S-bend at the fastest speed.

This was originally Mako's favorite skill - but whether it was speed, angle, or route, it was completely different from what 86 showed her.

What she didn't know was that Fujiwara Takumi would of course be very handy in performing this technique that could almost be called a basic operation in a rally.

Relying on his rich experience and Yiqun's talent, without hesitation, he omits and corrects some technical steps for the harsh road conditions in Ubing.

To achieve cornering with the most concise angle and the fastest speed.

After AE86 skimmed the double compound bend composed of C2-C5, SIL-80 just completed the reverse flick of the first S-turn.

SIL-80, which has dominated Uice for so many years, has never felt so slow for a moment. When they finally passed C5 at an extraordinary high speed, they could barely see the taillights of 86.

Seeing Fujiwara Takumi whose expression became calm and calm as soon as he grasped the steering wheel, Takahashi Ryosuke's dark blue eyes could not restrain his strong appreciation.

I originally thought that superb technology could only exist in theory, but it was clearly displayed in front of my eyes with an almost casual and ordinary posture.

Takahashi Ryosuke, who is writing the fastest theory, is a drifting master himself.

He naturally knows that the real long-distance four-wheel drift depends not only on the courage to maintain a terrifying high speed when entering a corner, but also on the excellent clutch engagement technique.

From a theoretical point of view, when the tire is [-]% slippery, it is in a state of maximum grip.

Once the rear wheels slip too much, the momentum will be lost to a great extent, and the start will be slowed down instead.In extreme cases of operator error, the embarrassing situation of shutting down the engine on the spot is more likely.

However, the condition of the car depends largely on the road conditions at that time, and it is almost impossible for mountain drivers: especially on the old-style roads like Ubing, which are full of gravel and small potholes, full of unpredictable possibilities, even if it is No matter how perfect the computer is, it is impossible to calculate it.

Of course Fujiwara Takumi couldn't do it all at once.

But after running the first round, having a better understanding of the road conditions through the bumps transmitted by the 86 body, he was able to make a confident attempt.

——This 86 driver with a god-like design that ordinary people can't imagine, relying on the wonderful clutch control technology, precisely controls the tire slippage to 1% when starting from C[-].

Tires with the most ideal and strongest grip, like loyal soldiers, obediently obeyed the domination of the downhill king born in Akina.

Exciting screams were issued in this dark and narrow Ubing Mountain Road, and a series of dreamlike high-speed reversal and flicking techniques continued to be performed, which also ended the second round of the competition without any suspense.
