Chapter 406 The Ring of Truth
An Feng spent some time matching the two tiger modification potions. After repeated tests, he underwent the first phase of injection. Since there had been successful cases before, he was also familiar with it this time. He observed it four hours after the injection, and there was no abnormality and progress was good.
After the inspection, An Feng grabbed a cat with one hand and got off the plane with his arm.
A two-month-old tiger is no different from a kitten. Animals are cute at the young stage, and even beasts are no exception. Two kittens are in their arms, climbing up and down to play. The helicopter landed on the lawn of the manor. An Feng jumped out of the plane and put the two guys on the ground.
After they landed, they started to make a fuss. Xiaobai, who heard the noise, ran over. With the previous prompt, it was quite friendly to these two little ones, at least not to bite them secretly. The two guys were also bold. When Xiaobai appeared, they stopped hitting them and shifted their targets to it.
"So cute!" Joanna, with her belly thrust, walked slowly, followed by a maid.
"Yes, little animals are always cute." An Feng squatted down to tease the two guys, and they opened their mouths to bite An Feng's fingers.
"I want to hug you very much." Joanna's voice softened.
"Let's talk about it later. You are pregnant now." An Feng hesitated. He didn't know whether pregnant women should come into contact with tigers... There seems to be few precedents.
"They will grow up from now on, and they can't hold them up." Joanna said, but she did not want to hug the two little tigers.
An Feng teased the tiger and walked around the neighborhood. When he was tired, he sat on the bench by the lake to bask in the sun. The two little guys followed him and played nearby. Xiaobai lay down on the ground, with his front paws stretched out. His big eyes were staring at the two little things, and the nearby hunting dogs also came to play.
Let’s take a look at these funny animals together and time passes slowly.
By early October, the day is approaching.
During this period, Kelly came to accompany Joanna, and Anfeng had three or four days off, and took some of Maserati's employees on a private plane.
The destination is Frankfurt, Germany. But the local area is just a transfer station. After getting off the bus, I did not stop and took the pick-up and drop-off bus to Nürburgring, more than 100 kilometers north of Frankfurt. Germany in October is not an ideal tourist season, and the weather has become colder, so I can only check out the city on the bus.
After leaving the city, enter the highway and turn on the highway mode.
Anfeng was riding in a Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan, driving an old driver with a little white hair. He drove very steadily in the city and gave priority to avoiding pedestrians. He was a driving model. However, after getting on the highway, the speed started and started, and the whole journey was about 160.
When it was almost time, An Feng saw that the dashboard was already at 180 per hour, but he passed by a small truck, and other luxury cars, sports cars, etc., but the small truck also abused them. Then another large truck abused them in succession, and the world went crazy.
In terms of calculation, the driver is relatively stable, and the fastest overtaking is 210.
Most sections of German expressways do not have speed limits, but their accident rate is much lower than those of other countries' highways. You have to accept that it is not only the law but also the reflection of quality. Most cars on the road are like this. Overtaking lanes are used. After passing, they will change lanes and do not occupy them for a long time.
So it took only about 40 minutes to drive over a hundred kilometers of road.
There are no big cities around Nürburgring, but it is a racing holy place, a place that car fans around the world yearn for. After arriving at the local area, they stayed in the hotel next to the track, and the hotel room could also overlook the motorcycle race held in the South Ring. It was said that it was a practice race, and the engine sounded constantly roaring.
The South Ring of Nurburgring is the F1 track, which is four or five kilometers long, while the North Ring of which is known as the "Ring of Truth" has more than twenty kilometers, which is called the "Green Hell". Any shortcomings in vehicle control design will be magnified on the track. Therefore, the lap results here have always been recognized as the high-performance car.
An Feng had already rested on the plane. After arriving at the hotel, he did not rest. Like other car fans who yearned for the holy place, he couldn't wait to see the true appearance of New Taipei. He set out with several members of the car factory, and the standard equipment was Maserati's GT sports car and gasoline version.
The gates of the North Ring Road are very low-key, but the surroundings are filled with a racing atmosphere. You need to buy tickets and check the vehicles before entering the racing stadium. The ticket price is also cheap. One lap is 27 euros, 100 euros in 4 laps, and 1,600 euros in annual purchases. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a car. There are a lot of car rental stores nearby, and Porsches can rent them.
Before going to the track, An Feng was in the passenger seat.
The coach responsible for driving explanation is said to be 300 laps in half a year. He is a professional driver. Now he is a tour guide and racing coach. He has to run 600 laps in the North Ring Road on average a year. He is experienced and can be said to be an amazing person who can run the entire journey with his eyes closed. The explanation is also very good.
To be honest, for tourists who come for the first time, the twenty-kilometer-long track usually remembers the ones behind and forgets the front. After a lap, they basically remember nothing. But when the coach asked An Feng for his feelings, he actually said all the key points he had just said.
Those who didn't know the bottom of An Feng were shocked.
Remember once, is this still a human being? Those who are familiar with An Feng were also a little surprised, but there was not much stranger to think of his identity as a first-class driver. After getting familiar with him for a while, An Feng moved to the passenger seat and ran five laps in a row. There were other vehicles on the track, and the models and performances vary greatly.
After running a few laps, Anfeng felt that he was really abusing people. The sports car meandered forward on the plateau. The track was undulating with the mountains, and the vertical drop of the road surface was as high as 300 meters. There were as many as 177 curves of strict tracks, running wildly in the highway for a moment, and the road conditions were also complex and changeable.
A few years ago, a popular saying: What is a supercar? Acceleration of 100 kilometers in 5 seconds? The extreme speed reaches 300?
No, New North ran in eight minutes!
Such well-known supercars as Ferrari Enzo, Lamborghini lp700, and Pagani Zonda-f all have been around 7 minutes and 24 seconds. With the improvement of car performance in recent years, the standard of eight-point heroes has been improved, but those who can run within seven and a half minutes are still the top ones.
While resting in the departure area, An Feng asked the engineer: "What is the ideal fastest time for esplo private one?"
The engineer was very straightforward: "Within 6 minutes and 50 seconds."
An Feng is not surprised, because it is indeed very strong: "What is the fastest running at the moment?"
The engineer said: "6 minutes and 49 seconds have not been officially certified. After the racer's condition is adjusted, it should be able to improve by one or two seconds."
"Very good!" An Feng said that if it could be improved for two seconds, it would break the fastest record of mass-produced cars and firmly take the first place.
As for non-mass production, this is not within the scope of consideration. What are the competition between racing cars and road sports cars?
...
The next day, Anfeng also drove one of the esplo private ones and practiced with the opening in the morning.
There are currently two supercars. I originally planned to use only one for testing, but because Anfeng's No. 2 car followed closely, and he was interested in testing, the manufacturer seized the time to build two. Anfeng is currently the owner who got the esplo private one as soon as possible except for the official one.
Because of the emergence of top electric supercars, it has attracted a lot of attention. New Taipei City is still open in the morning. In the afternoon, Maserati will book a venue and specialize in practicing for racers. Continue practicing tomorrow morning, and officially win the records in the afternoon. It is ready to take the first place.
Esplo Private One is not only the crystallization of Maserati's research and development, but also the embodiment of An's industry and GP company's technology. During the development of models, high-tech materials and supercomputers are used. It requires almost every detail and strives to be perfect. New North is the holy place of the name.
There were many people watching the morning exercises, and the afternoon booking was not allowed to get in. The racer and An Feng's car ran here. An Feng planned to spend the whole day here. He himself did not speak German. He did not have girls to accompany him on the street, so there was nothing fun to go out.
After the afternoon exercise, Maserati's focus was on adjusting.
Because... you have to admire the ability of some people to plug in. The royal racers run to the North Ring Road for less than a thousand times, and remember all the details in their hearts. The fastest lap number can reach 6 minutes and 47 seconds, but An Feng, who has only run more than 30 laps, just scored a 6 minutes and 46 seconds mark, which really scared everyone!
Then Maserati considered the boss’s idea a long time ago: he ran a lap himself.
The next morning, I continued to practice. At noon, after the senior management discussed with An Feng, the official allowed the addition of racers. Anyway, there was no bad record. An Feng was also willing to participate. It was a good thing to leave a record after a lap. Although everyone usually only remembers the model.
In the afternoon, he changed into a full racing suit and went on stage.
The starting direction of New North is clockwise, first of all, a series of abuse curves. The track is surrounded by green and is always in a state of ups and downs and swinging left and right. There is no effective monitoring throughout the whole process. You can only retrieve the car recorder after the race. An Feng is immersed in the track rushing.
The Maserati staff and other onlookers at the terminal were also looking forward.
Six minutes have passed, and whether a new record will be born depends on the next forty seconds.
An Feng ran most of the corners smoothly. After passing several particularly unpleasant high-speed corners, his eyes suddenly became clear. He was greeted by a nearly three-kilometer straight road. When he went out of the corner, he used kers, and the rest of the time he just stepped on the electric door and was stunned for a while.
An Feng didn't dare to stare at the speed of the sports car. It was already 340, and it reached 345 in the blink of an eye. After working hard, I broke through the 350 mark. The scenery in front of him was already a little blurry. He could only control the slowdown after the vehicle rushed to the line based on his feelings, but there is still a distance now.
After breaking through 350, it did not stop. 352...354 arrived at 355, he shook the flag and rushed to the line! He immediately released the electric door, the speed of the car slowed down, and at the same time, cheers from the radio came, and a shocking number rang the bell of the new record: 6 minutes and 45 seconds!
Anfeng set a new record with absolute advantage!
