IFord Fiesta R5: iziphatha kanjani emgwaqeni? - Izimoto zezemidlalo
Njengoba ilanga lasekuseni lilomisa, itiyela liyashintsha libe mnyama libe mpunga futhi likhanye, futhi umoya uzolile futhi uzolile esigodini se-emerald, esizungezwe amawa aphakeme: lena i-panorama yakudala yaseLake District. Uma ngijabulela lolu hlelo, kuvuka umbuzo ekhanda lami: I-Fiesta noma i-Ferrari?
Angihlanyi. A Iphathi R5 da donsa ndawonye kubiza okufanayo ne-458 Italia futhi bobabili bavunyelwe emgwaqweni. Ngakho-ke, buyela kithi: ukube ubusendaweni yami, iyiphi obungayikhetha ukunqoba intaba? Kuzwakala izwi eliyisihosha emsakazweni elingibuyisela eqinisweni, lingixwayisa ukuthi sekuyisikhathi. Ngivule iFiesta ngihambe. Ngizoyithola impendulo...
Bengilokhu ngifuna ukujabulela ukushayela imoto ye-rally yangempela emgwaqeni ojwayelekile kakhulu. Lokhu kwenzeka kakhulu phakathi nemibuthano, kokubili ngezigaba - endabeni yezinhlanga ze-asphalt njengoJim Clark - nalapho usuka kwesinye isigaba uya kwesinye. Kodwa kuzo zombili izimo, umgomo awukona ukuzijabulisa. Kodwa-ke, namuhla ngifuna ukuthola ukuthi kumnandi kangakanani ukushayela imoto ye-rally yangempela ngesivinini esihle ngenxa yayo, ngaphandle kokwesaba ukuncintisana noma ukucindezeleka kokuhamba amabanga ngokushesha ukuze ufike endaweni. qeda ngesikhathi. Okulandelayo. Uma ngithi "ngejubane elihle", ngiqonde isivinini esikhulu, kodwa ngokusobala sincane kakhulu kunalokho imoto efanayo engakwazi ukuyigcina emgwaqeni ofanayo uma une-navigator eduzane ekunikeza izikhombisi-ndlela ezinembile kanye nokuphepha okuqinisekisiwe. ngokwazi ukuthi awuzibeki engcupheni yokwenza ingaphambili ngemoto evela kolunye uhlangothi.
IZOLO ENTSHA IQEMBU R5 Yethulwe kwabezindaba okokuqala kanti namuhla ngizoyishayela endleleni ebheke eCheshire lapho izobamba iqhaza khona emcimbini wezemidlalo iCholmondeley Pageant of Power. Ifomula ye-R5 iwuhlobo lwe I-WRC ngentengo uhhafu futhi esikhundleni S2000 futhi Regional Rally Cars, ezisetshenziswa ku WRC2 (lapho uRobert Kubica esebenza khona njengamanje) futhi I-European Rally Championship, futhi Citroën, I-Skoda e I-Peugeot bazoqhudelana kuFormula R5 futhi njengamanje bathuthukisa ezabo izimoto, kodwa I-M-Sport kuzoba ngowokuqala ukwethula umkhiqizo oqediwe.
Ngiqale ukubona iFiesta R5 ekuseni embonini enkulu I-M-Sportlapho oomakhenikha balungise izimoto ze-WRC ku-Qatari ukuze zithunyelwe eSardinia ntambama. Abanye o-R5 abahlanu bebesezigabeni ezahlukene zokwakhiwa embonini. Uma kungenjalo ngekhithi yomzimba we-aerodynamic (isici sabo esihluke kakhulu), ngabe ngibaphambanisa njengezimoto ze-WRC. Bobabili bakwenzile i-gearbox elandelanayo e Ama-absorber othusayo uReiger, idrayivu enamasondo amane и isisindo ngo-1.200 kg.
IL ENGINE IQINISWE ngabakwaM-Sport Iphathi R5, ngakolunye uhlangothi, ihluke ngokuphelele, ngoba kufanele ilandele imithetho ethile: okokuqala, faka eyodwa i-flange 32 mm esikhundleni sika-33 mm ezimotweni ze-WRC. U-R5 umusha ngo-90% futhi kunomehluko obalulekile osiza ukugcina izindleko ziphansi. I-R5, isibonelo, isebenzisa izingxenye ezijwayelekile kakhulu, kanti ngenkathi izimoto ze-WRC zilwela ukukhanya, i-R5 ingakwazi ukuphatha amaphawundi ambalwa abengeziwe. Ukuze uqonde umehluko womqondo phakathi kokubili, vele ubhekei-generator: imoto ye-WRC iyitshe eliyigugu elibiza cishe ama-euro angu-3.000 futhi ingaphakanyiswa ngesandla esisodwa, kuyilapho u-R5 uthathwa Volvo, inzima impela futhi ibiza ama-euro angama-300. Kuyafana nezinye izingxenye, yingakho i-Fiesta R5 ibiza cishe u-€ 185.000. Nokho, ingaphansi kwesigamu semoto ye-WRC, naphezu kokuhamba kancane ngomzuzwana owodwa nje ngekhilomitha futhi kulula kakhulu ukuyishayela.
Eduze kwami ukuze alawule imoto (futhi enze isiqiniseko sokuthi akenzi lutho oluwubulima) Elfin Evans, ekhethelwe lo msebenzi yinhloko ye-M-Sport uqobo, UMalcolm Wilson: U-Evans ungumpetha oneminyaka engu-25 ubudala I-WRC Academy, indodana yenganekwane Guindaf futhi njengamanje ungumshayeli wendiza I-WRC (ku-Rally d'Italia uqede endaweni yesithupha Iphathi ye-WRC). Uyinsizwa ezithobile. Ngemva kokukhuphuka ibhande a Ikheji futhi sehlela esaluni (amakhilomitha okuqala ayehlezi esihlalweni somgibeli), siyafafaza amabhande amaphuzu ayisithupha futhi egqoke ama-headphone, u-Evans uchaza kafushane engidinga ukukwazi ukushayela le moto.
Ukuqala isiko iphathi enomsindo ilula ngendlela emangalisayo. Phansi ngaphambili ibhuleki lesandla kanye ne-gear lever. Kukhona iswishi ekhoneni eliphezulu kwesokudla sephaneli - vele ulehlise ukuze uzwe i-Fiesta ivuka ngokukhala, ukuduma namalambu anemibalabala. Bese unyathela i-pedal encane Bamba bese ucindezela inkinobho enombhalo oluhlaza: Qala... Ngifuna ukuzama i-accelerator ngenkathi injini ivuka ngokuthula kakhulu (njengemoto enkulu yangempela) kodwa u-Evans uyangiqinisekisa: amasilinda amane awadingi usizo. Eqinisweni, ngemva komzuzwana, injini ivuka isikhonkotha igxolo elenza lonke igumbi lidume.
Sihamba emigwaqweni emanzi yasesigodini sase-Kokmut, futhi noma isihlalo siphansi kangangokuthi angiboni kahle ngewindi langaphambili, akwenzeki ukuba ngingababoni abantu abadlula ngendlela abama ukuze babuke u-R5. Ayifani neze neFiesta eyejwayelekile, kodwa i-verstated trim kanye ne-matte grey-red livery egqamisa amasondo ayindilinga ayindilinga, iyawadonsa amehlo futhi iyathandeka kwi-supercar. Ize ibe nezibuko ze-carbon fibre.
Ngemva kwamakhilomitha ambalwa, u-Elfin uyama futhi angishiyele isihlalo somshayeli. Ngandlela thize izimoto ezivela donsa ndawonye ukuzilawula kulula: okokuqala, zonke izilawuli ziklanywe ngendlela yokuthi zinikeze ukufinyelela okulula kuzo. Ngasohlangothini lomshayeli, ukubuka akusicaba futhi akuthusi njengoba kwenzeka kwiRadical noma i-Atom, kodwa zimbili izinto ezingethusa kakhulu. Esokuqala sithi umsindo: R5 ivala izindlebe ngokoqobo, futhi awekho amaphaneli okuvikela ukuvikela ikhebhu, noma iyiphi i-pedaling noma konke Isivinini kubonakala sengathi ikhuliswe ngezinga leshumi. Ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho uthinta i-throttle noma ushintsha amagiya, injini ephendula eshaya amakhwela, amaxolo nokubhonga. Futhi umshayeli wendiza wayesendaweni yokuqala yalesi siphepho somsindo: ayesabi.
Okwesibili okungenza ngithuke kukhona Bamba... Ingxenye yawo umsindo okwenza ucabange ukuthi unikeza injini i-rpm eyengeziwe kunesidingo, ngakho wehlisa i-throttle futhi uma ukhulula i-clutch, injini iyacima. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ijubane lehla ngokushesha lapho i-clutch ikhishwa, ngakho-ke, kulokhu, udinga ukulinganisa kahle igesi ukuze ungaminzi imoto. Ngokushesha ngiqaphela ukuthi inkinga yayiyini, ngenkathi ngishayela u-Elfin, ngabheka ukuthi yimuphi umbuso aqala ukumlingisa futhi akazange azikhohlise.
Kubonakala sengathi ngifunde kahle isifundo sami, njengoba imoto yami ayicimi emahoreni amabili. Amadolobhana, iziqondiso, izingqinamba: Ngihlale ngikwazi ukushayela kahle kuze kube yilapho ngima egqumeni. Ukukhuphuka kanye nokuthambeka okungamaphesenti angama-20. Kumelwe ngime ukuze ngivumele amakhehla ambalwa ashayele iMicra, futhi lapho sengizohamba ngikhiphe uphethiloli kanye no-bam, imoto ime. Kwenzeka kanye ku-Elfin, ngakho angiphatheki kabi ngakho, kodwa ngemva kokuyizama futhi nokuyicisha futhi, ngiqala ukukhathazeka. Ngemva komzamo wesine ongaphumelelanga, ubuhlalu bezithukuthuku buye kwakheka ebunzini lami, futhi nginovalo lokuthi sizoba lapha isikhathi eside. Ekugcineni, ngiyaqonda ukuthi ukuze uqale, udinga nje ukuphakamisa isivinini kakhulu, ngakho-ke ngigcina i-clutch icindezelekile, ngivule igesi futhi nini amathayi baqale bakhumule ngisuse unyawo eclutch. Imoto iyaduma, futhi injini ibhodla izindonga zamatshe, njengokungathi ixwayisa sonke isigodi ukuthi ngikwenzile lokhu.
Ngokunyakaza, ukungqubuzana kuba yinto engasho lutho futhi ungajabulela izinjabulo kuyavumelana isivinini esiyisithupha. Igiya elithi lilula kancane futhi lide kunalokho ebengikulindele, kodwa amagiya ashaya umaki ngokuzwakala kahle komshini. Njengoba ijubane likhuphuka futhi sengijwayele u-R5, ngiyeke imodi ikhule futhi ngibone ukuthi amagiya mafushane kangakanani. Nasemgwaqweni omncane omazombezombe njengalona oholela eHonister Pass, lapho umzuzwana unganela izimoto eziningi, u-R5 ulokhu wehla wenyuka njalo. Uma ngikhuluma no-Elfin ngalokhu, wangitshela ukuthi u-R5 okwamanje uhlelelwe ukuthi usebenzise u-170 ngehora. Manje sengiyaqonda ukuthi kungani ngingakwazi ukudedela u-gearbox.
Ngenxa yokuthi injini ithuthukisa amandla ayo alinganiselwa ku-280 hp. (cishe ngama-30 ngaphansi kwe-WRC), izilinganiso zamagiya zibonakala zifushane nakakhulu. Kwimodi evamile, nge-anti-lag ekhubazekile, amandla angama-280 hp. ukuqhuma ngempela: ngaphezu kuka-3.500 rpm, uma ungashintshi igiya ngokushesha, ushaya umkhawulo ngokushesha. Lapho I-M-Sport Akafunanga ukudalula imininingwane yetorque ka-R5, kodwa uma ubheka izibhakela azithela emhlane wakho, ufana neMcLaren 12C.
Lo ukuqondisa kukhethekile nakakhulu. Ngesivinini esiphansi (okungukuthi, ungalokothi, ngoba akunakwenzeka ukumelana nesilingo sokwandisa ijubane) akusiyo ebucayi kakhulu, kodwa inembile kakhulu, futhi imoto ibambe kahle. Lokhu ngokwengxenye kuncike ekutheni ibeka ini isethi UMichelin isizukulwane sokugcina kuqhubeke imibuthano 18 amayintshi. Amasondo nawo angenza ngingakhululeki. Ngaphambi kokuba ngihambe ngemuva kwesondo, ngabuzwa izinto ezimbili kuphela: ukungaphahlazeka nokungaphelelwa amathayi. Umgwaqo esiwushayelayo ugcwele amatshe acijile, uma ngiwathinta ngephutha kuvele kuqhamuke isondo, kufanele ngehle emotweni ngiqale ukumjaha, kube sengathi impilo yami iyahamba. Ukwakhiwa kwamasondo kuyimfihlo kangangokuthi abakwaM-Sport basayine isivumelwano esimbophezela ukuthi akhokhe inhlawulo yesigidi sama-euro uma elahlekelwa okungenani isondo elilodwa ...
Vula, phezulu, phezulu elilodwa, amabili, bese amagiya amathathu, bhuleka, yehlisa amagiya amabili, ngena ekhoneni, gwema izimvu, upshift, weqa phezu kwedamu ngenkathi u-aquaplaning futhi uvika ngaphambili ezimotweni. ngihamba ngibheke kolunye uhlangothi, ngiyama, ngehlise i-clutch futhi ... ngiphefumule kakhulu. Okuthusa kakhulu ukuthi nakuba ngihamba ngesivinini esikhulu ukwedlula noma iyiphi enye imoto kulo mgwaqo osogwini olunyakazayo, kodwa ngiqhelelene no-R5, futhi ngiyakwazi lokho ngokuthi le moto ayinyakazi. ubonakala ejabule ngokuphelele. I-R5 yenza kahle kakhulu uma ungena emakhoneni ngokushesha okukhulu. Kepha ukuyigibela ngalelo jubane kuwuvivinyo olunonya olushiywe kumhlangano we-PS.
Lokhu akusho neze ukuthi angizange ngikuthande. Against. Uma ubheka ngalo mbono, i-R5 ifana ne-458 noma i-GT3: iyakwazi ukukuheha nokukujabulisa, ngisho noma ungayidonsi intamo. Kodwa futhi ikunikeza umbono wokuthi zingaki izivumelwano zokuhwebelana ezikhona, ngisho nezidlulele kakhulu, ukuze kukwazi ukuthengeka. ukusebenza.
I-M-Sport icubungula umqondo we-R5 yokuhamba emgwaqeni elinganiselwe, njengoba kwenzeka ezisekelweni zeQembu B. Kuthatha nje ukunwetshwa kwamagiya ukuphakamisangaphansi futhi ufake amathayi anolaka… ngiyayifuna!
