Chapter 765 Wanbao Case (Please Subscribe)

"Four Wheel Drive Brothers" has never approved of modifications that go beyond the car itself.

Or……

Wanbao Animation and Wanbao Toys also disapprove. In order to pursue the limit, players carry out various "unlimited" modifications and upgrades on four-wheel drive vehicles.

In the detailed rules of the first four-wheel drive competition, there are restrictions and restrictions on modifications to prevent everyone from falling into the strange circle of "modification competition".

But unfortunately...

With the popularity of the animation "4WD Brothers", audiences and players' enthusiasm for modifying four-wheel drive vehicles has further increased, reaching a level of obsession.

The game has soured.

In order to pursue faster speed and more powerful performance, the children made magical modifications to their four-wheel drive vehicles. In the end, they became more and more like unrestricted track cars.

"This chaos must end!"

Gu Miao said that four-wheel drive vehicles cannot continue to develop like this. Wanbao officials must establish a correct concept of modification for children and formulate relevant rules for four-wheel drive racing.

As the saying goes, there is no rule without rules!

There is no rule system, allowing players to play freely, which may seem very creative and active, but this will also seriously undermine the bottom line of "fair play".

Because you can't expect every four-wheel drive player to do his job honestly, and you can't guarantee whether he will do whatever it takes to win?

That is under this premise.

As a developer of four-wheel drive products, Wanbao needs to take the initiative and act as a "referee" or "notary".

Children urgently need a set of "four-wheel drive rules" that are practical, follow the principles of fairness and justice, and can be used in a wide range of official and private events!

Therefore, as Wanbao's first four-wheel drive competition was approaching, the "Wanbao Four-wheel Drive Rules 1.0" drafted by Gu Miao, reviewed by Lao He and Lightning Studio, and revised by many mini four-wheel drive experts was officially released.

Because this set of rules was first introduced by Wanbao, it is also called the "Wanbao Rules" by the majority of mini four-wheel drive players, or the "Wanbao Rules" for short.

The rules are not complicated.

First, all small events, club events, large-scale events, and international events hosted by Wanbao or using Wanbao four-wheel drive vehicles must abide by this rule, otherwise the event will not be recognized.

Second, all vehicles and parts used in the event must use products produced and manufactured by Wanbao Company. The use of non-Wanbao parts is prohibited.

This is understandable.

In the competition of your own company, it is only natural to use your own company's products. Unless you are not participating in the four-wheel drive competition organized by Wanbao, you must abide by this rule.

Third, even the spare parts and racing cars launched by Wanbao's own company have restrictions on different events.

This is mainly for the "chassis".

For example, the Standard-A of the Wanbao four-wheel drive is abbreviated as SA chassis, so only parts with the "SA prefix" in the name can be used. Parts using other prefixes will be regarded as "illegal modifications", and the results will be cancelled, and penalties such as suspension will be imposed.

Fourth, the motor and battery must be products manufactured by Wanbao, and in terms of battery selection, regular competition must be disposable batteries that do not contain lithium ions.

No one cares if you use rechargeable batteries in private, or simply lithium batteries, or even nuclear batteries, but for formal competitions, you can only use disposable batteries that do not contain lithium ions.

This is also for the sake of fairness.

Different batteries mean that the car can perform differently, which is completely unfair to other players.

Fifth, any Wanbao four-wheel drive vehicle participating in official competitions must meet size requirements. Different events have different standards, but regular competitions require that the full width of the vehicle body is ≤105 mm, the total length is ≤165 mm, the total height is ≤70 mm, and the minimum ground clearance of the chassis is ≥1 mm.

This is to limit the extent of modifications.

Some players, in order to make the car more powerful, modify the car to a magical degree. Such modifications are definitely not possible and the modification dimensions must be strictly adhered to.

In addition to the corresponding size of the car, Article 5 of this set of rules also imposes certain restrictions on the tire size of the car.

Someone may ask...

It is difficult for players to accurately control such millimeter-level dimensions. What should we do if there are errors during car inspection during competition?

Don’t worry too much about this!

Wanbao also considered that millimeter-level size restrictions may cause some trouble to children, so it also added in the rules that a certain range of error values ​​is allowed during vehicle inspection.

simply put.

If the error is within one millimeter, if you can turn a blind eye, you will be considered successful. But if the error is several millimeters, or even more than ten millimeters, then you should not think that everyone is blind...

Sixth, the vehicle weight for regular competitions cannot be less than 90 grams, but there is no upper limit.

The minimum vehicle weight limit is to combat those "frivolous people" who crazily reduce the weight of four-wheel drive vehicles in pursuit of speed.

Why not set a cap?

Because there is no need at all. Anyway, the motor and battery are all stipulated for you. If you feel that with the same power output, a 200-gram racing car can outrun a 100-gram racing car, then just go ahead and try it!

Seventh, there are also corresponding restrictions and regulations regarding the transmission system, gears and guide wheels.

In general, several accessories that have a greater impact on the performance of four-wheel drive racing are basically covered and restricted in the rules, ensuring the fairness of the competition to the greatest extent.

But beyond that.

For those modifications that do not affect the fairness of the competition, Wanbao maintains a more supportive attitude.

For example, the shell of a racing car!

You can make it whatever you want. If you don't mind being too social, you can even change the body of the car to look like a beautiful girl, and the official won't care anyway.

The release of this set of Wanbao rules has put an end to the current chaos of mini four-wheel drive modifications and made everyone start to face up to the importance and necessity of the rules.

Most players are quite supportive.

Because of unlimited modification, it is indeed easy to cause unnecessary burdens to everyone and fall into the vicious circle of "arms race".

Now that there are clear competition modification rules, everyone's burden is not so heavy. After all, under the rules, there are only so many parts that can be modified by everyone.

The game becomes fairer!

This is definitely a good thing for all players who love mini four-wheel drive vehicles. The only person who is unhappy is probably Mr. Bear who signed up for the competition with great interest.

"No fair! No fair!"

The little bear is always shouting crazily. He is ready to use unlimited modifications to participate in competitions and torture children.

In the end, Gu Miao came up with a set of Wanbao rules and completely stopped his thoughts.

Without the blessing of unlimited modifications, he could not even abuse the children. Even if others let go, he would not dare to say that he would win, and he might even be tortured by the children.

One million registration fee!

He spent one million to sign up for the competition, was he just looking for abuse? This is not fair! Money back in Geneva!
