On the afternoon of June 24, the Stunt Show of the Fifth China EV Rally, Qinghai Lake (CEVR) was held at Qinghai Tibetan Medicine and Culture Museum Square in Xining City. Nine models were involved for the show, namely BAIC EU5, BAIC EX360, BAIC EX5, SAIC Roewe Marvel X, Changan Eado EV of Second Generation, BYD Qin EV450, Dongfeng Fengshen E70, LinkTour K-ONE, Iveco PowerDaily EV42.
The Stunt Show was brilliant. To begin with, the professional driver, Jia Qiang together with the team members of his club presented the stunts with their cars forming the fallowing shape: fighter aircraft shape, beeline shape, wild goose wing shape, T shape and rhombus. Then, six drivers including Jia Qiang, Zhang Deyong, Ling Shan, Li Yu, Liu Zhongzheng, and Liang Huijun respectively carried out the stunt performance as below: orbiting around the piles from the same direction and synchronously ,orbiting around the piles from the same direction and crossly , orbiting around the piles from the opposite direction, orbiting around the piles through turning back; moving forward and turning around at 180 degrees in turn , turning back at 180 degrees synchronously, one vehicle turning forward at 180 degrees with turning around at 180 degrees, two vehicles moving forward at high speed at 180 degrees from opposite directions with turning back, two vehicles moving forward at 180 degrees from opposite directions, two vehicles turning back at 180 degrees from opposite directions, face-to-face at extreme speed, several cars cross drifting, turning around at 360 degrees, and turning around at 540 degrees turn, etc. In the end, the stunt drivers pushed the stunt show to its climax through running around the pile in two wheels, and people jumping in two wheels, which were extremely difficult to realize.
It is worth mentioning that since this year's CEVR met the popular Russian World Cup, the organizing committee specially arranged the car shooting event in the stunt performance. Gymnastics world champion Kui Yuanyuan, women's volleyball world champion Xue Ming, and short track speed skating world champion Shi Jing male formed a star team. They personally drove the three models of BAIC EU5 and had an exciting shooting competition with the professional drivers.
As the leading figure of the entire stunt, the captain of the Challenger Auto stunts Club, Jia Qiang has taken part in the CEVR for three times. He said that among the stunt performance he has done today, the drifting and two-wheel driving are classic events, which are a test of the stability of the vehicles. When the first time he took part in the CEVR, he was worried that the electric vehicle would be a little big heavy and not easy to operate. But he found it was very easy to operate after he actually drove it, and the performance effect was also very good. The Challenger Auto stunts Club was founded in 2012, and each of its members has thousands of performance experiences.
By the overview of the entire stunt exhibition match, it can be said that in the limited space performance venues, the strong acceleration performance of electric vehicles can be presented vividly, which may not be possible for the same class oil-powered cars. The relatively heavier electric vehicle can make flexible and changeable drift action, which fully explains the reliability of the chassis of the electric vehicle.
In addition, in the two-wheel stunt performance, electric cars with batteries are heavier than oil-powered cars, and all their weight is concentrated on the two wheels, and they are not loading-carrying angle of the original car, however, the cars still remain intact when they fall down, which fully explains the reliable quality of the electric vehicles.
In today's performance, stunt drivers are constantly changing their cars, making almost all of the participating models appear in the show. Different brands of cars also have their own advantages, and I believe that they will usher in a real test after the evaluation race.
