Riding a Kawasaki H2 to chase the high-speed rail, the school beauty was moved to tears

Racing is an individual event, but it is also a team event. F1 has a tire strategy, and vice versa.

Different combinations of these four types of tires will have different effects. Teams and drivers must have their own strategies for tire management.

"Soft tires are mainly suitable for the early stage. They heat up quickly and have the highest early grip among all types of tires, but they also wear the fastest."

"Medium tire, medium early grip, medium wear rate."

"Hard tires have the worst early grip and are the weakest of the three tires, but they wear the slowest and last the longest."

Hard tires will make the fight difficult in the early stage, but once you get to the later stage, it will be the world of hard tires. Soft tires are strong in the early stage, and it is easy to quickly break away from the group of cars in the starting stage, but they are weak in the later stage. The characteristics of the medium tire are in the middle of the two. It's neither strong nor weak in the early stage, and it's neither strong nor weak in the later stage.

In addition to rain tires, Xu Hong quickly explained to Qin Chuan one by one the functions and strengths of the other three types of tires.

Qin Chuan turned over the three types of tires one by one. Except for the different models printed on them, he couldn't feel much difference in the materials. They all felt the same.

Is this... really a difference?

"Don't look at it, you can't touch it. The only difference between them is the formula of the materials."

Xu Hong's voice came from far away.

Some large-scale events have professional tire sponsors, such as csbk. The tire supplier is a domestic brand. The special tires for csbk competitions are special formulas specially developed by the brand owners and cannot be copied. These formulas just change the proportion of raw materials. After a while, you can't feel it out by touching it. If the tire is hard, it will be hard, and if the tire is soft, it will be soft.

When Xu Hong spoke, Qin Chuan stopped groping and scratched his head. He thought the softness had something to do with the tire itself.

Finally, Qin Chuan looked at the rain tires on the side.

This kind of tire is different from the first three types. It has many patterns on it, basically all of them are patterns.

The tires he used before were similar to the tires he usually used during competition training, but this was the first time he saw these rain tires. He was a little curious. Could they be used for racing on rainy days?

"Rain tires, as the name suggests, are used during races in rainy weather. They have multiple drainage patterns on them."

Xu Hong's voice soon came over, explaining the function of rain tires to Qin Chuan.

“The drainage effect of racing rain tires is far beyond that of commercially available tires. In addition to the pattern, there are drainage grooves on the surface. When the speed reaches [-] kilometers per hour, this tire can discharge two liters of water per second, which can ensure that the car has water drainage in rainy days. Best grip ever."

"Little guy, you won't be able to use this kind of tire for the time being. You can try it again when it rains later."

CSBK is the top track event in China, and drivers also have to compete in rainy days. On rainy days, the grip of slick tires is almost zero because they have no pattern, and they are very easy to slip. This is when rain tires come in handy.

rain? It turns out that these patterns are for drainage.

Qin Chuan lowered his body and touched the patterned tire, then put it back again.

At a speed of [-] per hour, it can discharge two liters of water per second, which is a bit scary. At a speed of [-] per hour, it can cover a distance of tens of meters in almost one second. It can discharge two liters of water in this distance. This drainage effect is quite excellent.

To be honest, he has never tried racing in rainy days, but Qin Chuan has experienced delivering food in rainy days. It is no exaggeration to say that if the rain is heavy, the vision will be greatly affected. Is it really possible to race in such weather?

Doubt was doubtful, but Qin Chuan still nodded and tried it another day when his body recovered and on a rainy day.

After understanding all the tires, the next step is tire matching.

Tire matching does not require that the front and rear wheels must use the same material. That means you can mix soft tires on the front wheels and hard tires on the rear wheels.

Asking the staff to carry all the tires outside the p room, Qin Chuan was going to try to match the tires himself.

"Little guy, the prerequisite for matching tires is that you have to understand the characteristics of your car and your driving style, so that you can make a better choice of tires."

Sitting down on the chair at the door of Room P, Xu Hong said aloud.

Tire strategy does not mean choosing a set of tires that are most suitable for you, but reasonably matching these tires in a way that is most suitable for you, so that no tires will be available during critical periods.

csbk, there are eight races a year, but the competition will only provide drivers with tire packages to support four races.

What does it mean? If both the front and rear wheels use medium tires, and this matching tire is used in every race, after four races, all the medium tires will be used up. At this time, the driver must use soft tires or Hard tires, one tire alone, no matter which one is used, is not enough to complete all races throughout the year.

At this time, the driver must properly match his tires so that he can show his strength without running out of tires later.

"The characteristics of your own car."

Staring at these tires, Qin Chuan glanced at his car. He chose this car, so he naturally understood what the advantage of his car was, straight lines!

Qin Chuan subconsciously glanced at the rear wheel of his car. As a driver, he could clearly feel the dependence of his car on the grip of the rear wheel when he was competing.

Seeing this, Xu Hong nodded, Qin Chuan's path was right.

The straight-line advantage of V4 racing cars mainly depends on the grip of the rear wheels, so the selection of rear wheels is particularly important. The overall strategy also revolves around the rear wheels.

The rear wheels of the v4 car must at least have enough power throughout the entire process.

To ensure that you have a straight-line advantage in the early and late stages.

Qin Chuan quickly thought of this, so he could only choose between medium tires and hard tires for the rear wheel. As for the front wheel, he could only choose between medium tires and hard tires.

Soft tires, or...medium tires.

Qin Chuan did not choose hard tires for the front wheel. After participating in regular races, Qin Chuan knew that the early stage of the race was actually very important. If he could take advantage of the dense crowd of cars to get a good position in the early stage, he would have a great advantage later in the race.

In higher-level competitions, it is not that easy to overtake a driver. If you are weak in the early stage, it will be very difficult to catch up later.

"Little guy, these things you think about are just theories. The real combination depends on trial. Try these tires with the way you race, and choose the two optimal combinations."

Seeing Qin Chuan's placement, Xu Hong spoke up again.

Theory can provide a reference for practice, but the specifics can only be decided after trying it.

Hearing this, Qin Chuan nodded. This makes sense. If you don't try it, how will you know whether it is suitable for you or not?

Soon, under the control of the technician, Qin Chuan's Ducati V4 racing car was quickly replaced with a matching tire, and Qin Chuan got on the car and started testing.

Seeing Qin Chuan about to get in the car, Jiang Yue quickly put down the book and came to help him.

"Sister, I'm fine, just let it go."

"okay!"

After confirming that it was correct, Qin Chuan waved his hand for Jiang Yue to go back, then started the car and started testing.

"This kid is not lacking in diligence. He just needs to train appropriately. Be careful not to hurt your body."

Sitting on the chair, Xu Hong said happily.

The roar of the racing motor on the field, Qin Chuan's smooth cornering and braking, everything was like flowing clouds and flowing water.

After nearly an hour, Qin Chuan finally tried out all the racing tire configurations and finally chose two plans.

A set of rear medium tires combined with front soft tires can ensure that the straight line is not weak in the early stage and the corners are strong, allowing you to seize a better position in the first few laps.

This set focuses on the early stage.

The other set is a hard tire on the rear wheel, combined with a medium tire on the front wheel. This set is much more conservative, but this set can withstand high temperatures and is not weak in the middle and late stages, but it is a little weak in the early stage.

In addition to the use of the driver, tire wear is also related to the weather. The higher the track temperature, the better the grip. The better the grip, the faster the tire wears. Hot weather will intensify tire wear.

Qinchuan's second plan is very suitable for use in hot weather.

Qinchuan has tentatively decided on these two plans, but he has to adapt to the weather changes during the specific competition.

After selecting the best match, Qin Chuan sat down on the chair and rested for a while.

Unfortunately, although the test was correct, without a sparring partner, the test of actual combat effectiveness is still a bit lacking.

"Qin Chuan, someone is looking for you at the door."
