today to participate in the 2019 AMG Driving Academy Driving School, in addition to personally driving new cars released A35, A 45 S 4Matic +, CLA 35 4Matic Coupeacute;, CLA 45 4Matic Coupeacute; outside, the other like a GT 4- Door Coupeacute; cars, C 63, etc., can be a pro-Ze, finally, the original coach driver AMG GT R Pro conduct Hot Lap ride experience.
UCAR also send representatives to attend the driving school’s activities, while paying attention to vehicle dynamic performance, handling performance is very huge impact, is the only “tire” in contact with the road, this time in the AMG Driving Academy course, there are some ideas to share with readers.
2019 AMG Driving Academy driving tires specified INSTITUTE
The present 2019 AMG driving Academy times, in addition to the new car released debut, driving courses, on the other hand is also the brand way through activities, strengthen communication with Mercedes-AMG on the track, performance, handling advantages of the fun, so the original safety It demands more than ever.
In addition to the vehicle itself, affect handling and driving pleasure most direct parts, than is the tire, so the original Mercedes-Benz will choose high-quality tire partner annually to ensure that activities can play the best vehicle performance, while ensuring safety; and this year was chosen tire brand, which is the same as the process on behalf of Germany’s Continental tires.
To meet AMG one hundred cars off easily 3,4, 5 or even more than one hundred horsepower, Continental tire products offered on behalf of the brand’s flagship SportContact 6, as well as high-performance tire models ExtremeContact Sport, can provide sufficient grip and tracking of, in this subject AMG Driving Academy Driving School, the use Continental’s tire products.
AMG 35 Family: A 35 4Matic, A 35 4Matic Sedan, CLA 35 4Matic Coupeacute; [ 123]
the new listing of published 35 family, comprising a 35 4Matic, a 35 4Matic Sedan and CLA 35 4Matic Coupeacute ;; 35 to 1,991 cc in-line power from the original code M260 4-cylinder engine, the output may be 400N.m maximum torque and 306 horsepower.
AMG 35 cars in subjects Driving School, the main cone and around the whole track to follow, considerable test of tire performance and grip, especially in the full-track follow project, starting from the beginning , reach the working temperature, the support resistance, tracking resistance, braking stability and the like, will affect the evaluation of the driver of the vehicle dynamic behavior.
First, 235/35 R19 specification A 35 4Matic, A 35 4Matic Sedan, with the Continental SportContact 6 pattern, before the start of the course, I paid particular attention to what the status of the tire tread normal temperature of cold tires state, after the car to start the engine, began around the cone subjects had to consider when SC6 in cold tires, Do not put too fast-paced, but a 35 passed to my feedback control is quite good, so I accelerated the pace early, but the grip also fits nicely SC6, so that the potential of the vehicle chassis completely play out.
on the operating temperature, the level distance belonging UUHP, semi-competitive with street tire SportContact 6, the originally set than pure kind of track tires but does not require warm tires, after all, in normal daily use the road, it is unlikely that there will be a warm tire operations; and a 35 4Matic with them, even if there is a start winding cone deliberately slowed down some more pace, but still a fierce drive operation, but SC6 control the entire process down, there has been no significant drop grip performance, means that even in a state SC6 not tread high temperature, can still provide excellent tracking performance, and this point for drivers usually travel in the streets, it can provide high security protection.
then change to the CLA 35 4Matic Coupeacute ;, tire with using SportContact 6, after the experience with the A 35, CLA 35 starting from the beginning I Hao blunt sprint can be found to SC6 the support is quite good, before or on behalf of Continental contrast to previous generations of flagship pattern, support SC6 performance has greatly improved, and even on the verge of the limit, SC6 will take a very linear way to remind drivers pay attention, do not suddenly soft foot or appear out of control, this is like for people to control blood, is very important.
Also in this level, there are also used with ExtremeContact Sport pattern, compared with SC6, ExtremeContact Sport of Some lower location, belongs to the high-performance street tires, but even so, it and the AMG power with them, still provides plenty of driving pleasure; but after all, the level of product positioning are different, ExtremeContact Sport slightly lower limit, and if it is skidding to drift, but also with full of fun.
the whole track to follow, with the AMG 35,43,53,63 it!
Next, most people are looking forward to the full track driving course, the original arrangements at this level A 35 cars, GT 4-Door Coupeacute; powered version of 43,53,63, so that students can enjoy full performance horse with the name of time to enjoy the ride.
A 35 of 306 horsepower, the racing field in Lai Po can be said to be full of fun, excellent chassis set with 6 SportContact sufficient grip, people can feel the thrill of ease of control. Change to GT 4-Door Coupeacute; then, with the upgrading of power, to the highest version 585 of 63, the depth of the throttle control is also more sensitive, if only reimbursing foot in the end, will not only cause invalid output skidding, but also It will detract from the time of the lap.
in SportContact 6 with GT 4-Door Coupeacute; the setting, the performance of the tire belonging to SC6 “tough”, and Q soft elastic or different, Q SC6 between ductile and hard, not only provide adequate support force and grip, but not so diehard too, especially when the pressure crossing the boundary stone, SC6 with the chassis can filter unwanted vibration, but also holding steady high stability, can feel the tires firmly grasp the road, give people full confidence.
SportContact “tough” 6, with the speed increase, both to provide a stable and highly supportive of feedback can also maintain sensitive handling characteristics, breaking past Continental tires softer impression on the track, whether it is to drive a 35 cars or GT 4-Door Coupeacute; cars, SC6 as with tires, no doubt can play a full chassis potential.
Experience: Performance cars have high-performance tires to match
After a full day of AMG Driving Academy curriculum down , in addition to enjoy a moment of charm AMG performance cars, but the track and in the course, the most commonly overlooked tire accessories, is also one of the most critical factors affecting the tracking performance; this by means of the AMG Driving Academy opportunity, with Continental’s flagship SportContact 6, allow the vehicle to give full play to the full performance, while also ensuring the safety of the activity, that play their role quietly understated tire, coincides also need a good car with good tires to the same laws of .
