Dan Fletcher (Dan Fletcher) numwe mubantu batatu gusa mumateka yo gusiganwa.Yatsinze intsinzi zirenga 100 NHRA, amushyira imbere y'imigani myinshi muri siporo, kandi guhatana na John Force na Frank Manzo (Frank Manzo) babaye ikipe idasanzwe.Niwe kandi wenyine wazunguye West Swing kabiri.
Kuva mu marushanwa ya mbere ya Super Stock yatsindiye i Columbus mu 1994 kugeza ku mwanya wa kabiri wa Super Stock muri NHRA National E-sport spark plug muri 2020, imodoka yatumye Fletcher atsindira cyane ni iyi shusho 1969 Chevy Z / 28 Camaro.Nimodoka yatsinze cyane mumateka ya NHRA na Chevrolet yatsinze cyane muri moteri zose.Ntayindi mipira yatsindiye amarushanwa menshi muburyo ubwo aribwo bwose bwo guhatana.igihe.Niki kidasanzwe kuriyi modoka yatsindiye intsinzi nyinshi murwego rwo guhatanira?Ni umugabo?Nibimashini cyangwa mubyukuri ntaho bitandukaniye byombi?
Mubihe byinshi, urufunguzo rwo gutsinda ni ugutangira mbere yabandi bose, kandi ibisekuru byo gusiganwa bya Z / 28 birashobora gukurikiranwa kumunsi wambere.Kamaro yavutse nk'ikirere cya Crossram cyemewe n'amategeko, litiro 302, V-8, imodoka yihuta.Ubu bwoko bwimashini zakozwe mumarushanwa, nubwoko bwimodoka ikurwaho kumasoko yabakusanyije uyumunsi.
Fletcher yagize ati: “Mu by'ukuri, data yaguze imodoka nshya, ayitwara mu rugo, kandi ubuzima bwe bwose yabusiganwe.”Mileage yonyine yabonye kumuhanda ni mileage yagombaga kunyura kubacuruzi.Ibirometero byose bikanda ku ndege zikururwa mu gihugu hose.
Se wa Fletcher yatwaye imodoka mu bicuruzwa byahinduwe mu myaka ya za 70, hanyuma ayihagarika umwanya muto.Igihe Fletcher yari yegereje imyaka yo gutwara, yavuze ko yasubije se mu nzira yo gusiganwa mu myaka ya za 1980 maze ahindura Kamaro imodoka yo gutwara, hanyuma ayikoresha mu ntangiriro ya za 90.Yahinduwe kugirango yitabire amarushanwa ya Super Stock.Tumubajije ku ibanga ryo gutsinda kw'iyi modoka, Fletcher yavuze ko ari uruhurirane rubi rw '“akazi gakomeye no kwihangana.”Yavuze ko yakuye imyitwarire ye y'umwuga kuri se.Fletcher yagize ati: “Ntekereza ko ndi umukozi ukomeye, ariko data azantera isoni.”“Ni umuntu ukora cyane kandi ushingiye ku buryo burambuye.”Ubwoko bwumuntu usanzwe uzi icyo bisaba kugirango utsinde intsinzi.Abantu.
None, ni ubuhe buryo burambuye kuri Fletcher na Kamaro ye?Yibanze ku gikorwa cyo gukora imodoka vuba kandi ziteganijwe, ntabwo ari ibice.Iyi ni bulldozer ifite ibifuniko byinshi byo kunyerera hejuru.Ntitwabura kubona ibice byinshi byihuta byateguwe neza kuri Kamaro, hafi ntakintu twasobanura nka "exotic".
Fletcher yatubwiye ati: “Ndi uwashizeho akamenyero, kandi ndagerageza gukora ibintu vyoroshe.”Yemera ko afite inshuti nyinshi zo kugura ibintu byiza kumodoka zabo, ariko ntabwo arumusore.Yatwaye iyi modoka igihe gihagije kuburyo yazanye ibice byujuje ubuziranenge, ariko hariho iyi verisiyo ihendutse cyane kuriyi modoka.“Ntabwo ndi umuyobozi w'icyumweru.Ntabwo ndi mody.Ndi cliché gusa. ”Yatubwiye.
Hagati yiyi minara yo guhagarikwa, Chevrolet yashyizeho moteri yayo ya 302cid Crossram ya moteri ya kane.Kuva icyo gihe, yahindutse inzu ya moteri ntoya nini nini ndetse na moteri ya SB2 NASCAR.Hano hari moteri ya COPO ya 350 ifite ibikoresho bya LS7 aluminium, umutwe wa LS3 hamwe na Holley Hi Ram yinjira.Nyuma yo kongeramo gasketi kugirango ikore inzira nziza itemba, iyi myuka yo mu kirere ntishobora gushyirwaho kurukuta rwimbere.Munsi ya gaze.Hariho imiyoboro myinshi ya zip hamwe na butt kuruta uko twari tubyiteze muriyi modoka, ariko nkuko Fletcher yatwibukije ati: "Ibintu byanjye bizahora bitangira."
Urashobora kubona hafi yamaraso yumye kumurongo wa AN wakozwe na Fletcher kuriyi modoka.Yatangaje ko akeneye gusa guhindura umurongo kugirango ahindure kuri carburetor nto yari akeneye kuri moteri ya LS.Fletcher yavuze kandi ku masomo y'ubuhanga yize ku bijyanye na peteroli.Umugenzuzi ntiyashoboye kugenzura umuvuduko wa lisansi kugeza ahinduye imodoka akinjira -8 AN yinjira na -10 AN ingano yo kugaruka.Dukurikije imibare yacu, uko imyaka yagiye ihita, byibuze uburyo butatu bwo gushyiraho uburyo bwo kugenzura ingufu za peteroli bwageragejwe neza ku ruziga rwambere.
Turagukijije ibibazo: odometer isoma ibirometero 653 gusa.Uyu ntabwo ari umubare nyawo.Fletcher yatubwiye ko insinga zimaze imyaka mirongo zidahuza, kandi umubare w’insinga umaze kugera kuri iyo mileage.Ikibaho, itapi n'ibikoresho bya pedal bishaje mumarushanwa mugihugu cyose.Nyuma ya byose, ibi ni biro byo murugo rwa Fletcher.
Mu ntangiriro ya 2000, imodoka yahoze ikoresha silindiri 396 na moteri yihuta eshatu, ariko usibye ko, iyi modoka ya Hearst imaze imyaka igera kuri 30 ikoreshwa mumodoka.Amashanyarazi ya Biondo Racing yamashanyarazi hafi ya yose ahinduranya ibikoresho bya 1-2.Kugeza ubu, hari umuhanda wihuta wa ATI Powerglide munsi ya tunnel, ariko Fletcher yizera ko imodoka ikeneye umuvuduko wa gatatu kugirango ikoreshe umukandara wa moteri.
Igenzura rya gear naryo risa nkibintu byashaje byihuta kandi byari mumodoka mugihe Fletcher yatangiraga isiganwa.Fletcher yavuze ko igihe yagwaga ku bw'impanuka avuye mu modoka yazengurukaga mu 2003 maze “avunika uruhande rwanjye rw'iburyo”, yagombaga gushaka uburyo bwo kuva ku murongo w'ibicuruzwa akoresheje ukuboko kwe kw'ibumoso gusa.Kubwibyo, usibye iyi buto hasi, hari na buto kumuzinga.“Rimwe na rimwe nkoresha iyo buto, rimwe na rimwe ni iyindi.”
Urupapuro rw'icyuma ku modoka ni rwambere, kandi se wa Fletcher yagabanije kabiri imodoka mu ntangiriro ya za 1980.Dan yibutse ko imodoka yabonye ku meza ya picnic yari fixture.Iyi modoka yongeye gukorwa na Gary Wisecarver wa Rustburg, muri Virijiniya.Mu myaka 25 ishize, amapine ya Mickey Thompson yabaye ibicuruzwa nyamukuru muri gahunda, ariko Weld Wheels ni igicuruzwa gishya mu 2019.

Urebye ku modoka, biragaragara ko iyi ari ikigereranyo ku mushoferi-bafatika ku byerekeranye no gutsindwa, kandi uburyo bwabo bwo gukina ndetse no gukina butekerezwa nyuma yukuri.Guhumeka kwabo bizagutera gutekereza ku gice gikurikira wongeyeho ku modoka, nubwo atari cyiza cyane, siba igice uherutse kurangaza.Kurugero, reba sisitemu ya lisansi.Hano hari pompe zidafite ubuhanga bugezweho mumashanyarazi, ariko ntushobora kubimenya.Uru ni intoki zikozwe mu ntoki, zashyizweho na zipper kugirango zikurure ibitekerezo byawe.Hano nta shitingi itondekanye ya Teflon cyangwa O-ring clamshell ihuza.Ni uko ibikoresho gakondo bitukura nubururu AN byagenzuwe mu ndege mbere yuko imodoka ijya kuri interineti.Nyamara, ntakintu cyambere kiboneka mubishushanyo mbonera, kubera ko umuyoboro wakozwe kugirango ugabanye umubare nubunini bwibikoresho byo gutanga lisansi kuri moteri no kwemerera umuyobozi kugenzura neza igitutu cya lisansi.Fletcher yagize ati: "Imiyoboro ya lisansi yose ubona munsi ya hood ni ibice nakoresheje mu nsi yo munsi".Ati: "Ku muyoboro mushya wa peteroli wirabura, nta kintu mfite, ariko niba mfite ibice ku ntoki kandi imodoka imaze kugira umwobo (bivuye mu zindi nzego zo gutwara imodoka), nzakoresha ibyo mfite."

Uyu muntu na mashini bize neza uburyo bwo gukoresha neza ibyo bafite.Hano nta sasu ryubumaji rihari.Azi uburyo bwo kubona ibice bigomba gusubiza.Yagize ati: “Abantu benshi cyane bazimira iyo batangiye guhindura ibintu, kandi rimwe na rimwe biragoye kubona inzira yo gusubira inyuma.Ndetse nanjye. ”Avuga ko igihe kinini agerageza gukora ikintu gishya, cyangwa gukora ikintu cyiza, amaherezo bizamusubiza inyuma.Kubwibyo, ubwihindurize bwimodoka butinda nkana kandi nuburyo.
Ba nyampinga bigiye ku makosa yabo no gutsinda, kandi ibihe bya Fletcher ya 2019 na 2020 NHRA niwo mukino we muremure udafite Wally.Nimpamvu yo guhuza moteri nshya ya LS mumodoka?Birashoboka, ariko Fletcher ntabwo yahise avuga ko amakosa ari muburyo ubwo aribwo bwose.Fletcher yagize ati: “Iki kigomba kuba ari cyo gihugu kirekire cyane cyumye.”Ati: "Umwaka ushize ni bwo bwa mbere ntatsinze umukino mu myaka 25."Yegereye atwara imodoka neza, ariko nk'uko yabivuze: “Ntabwo byagaragaye.”
Igihe cye cya 2020 nacyo nticyigeze kimwemerera kwinjira muri zone ye.Kubwibyo, yagiye yiga gufata imodoka hamwe na torque ihinduranya kugirango ikore imibare isabwa.Wibuke ko arimo akora ibice yakoresheje kuva muri 2019, kandi arimo akora kunonosora no kwirinda impinduka nshya.Fletcher yagize ati: “Igihe cyose uzakomeza guhinduka, ntuzigera ubyitwaramo neza.”“Ubwanyuma, ugomba gukora ubushakashatsi bwimbitse, hanyuma ugakora sisitemu ikora kandi ikayitunganya.Mu byukuri natwaye imodoka imwe mumyaka 40.Hejuru. ”
