Hvernig sem, a var ekki tilbinn Dagtmi, og eini Strshestur me a nef og a vngur from the fibreglass, tested in a wind tunnel. In a life on the maximum speed would cover has simply collapsed, not having sustained a pressure of an air stream. Appearance in a shock. «Also what, it will not only chase in NASCAR, but also to go on roads of the general using?» asked all. Yes!
Intensive tests and operational development have begun in June. On July, 20th, 1969 there have passed first high-speed tests. But results of arrivals have disappointed test pilots максималка has made 194 miles at an o’clock (hardly more than 310 km/h), that it was not much better, than at Charger 500. Racers (Buddy Baker) and Чарли Глоцбах (Charlie Glotzbach), getting out of the car, have been amazed. During a break they have complained to engineers, that, probably, with the motor something not so. In the answer the head of tests has specified a finger in the sky over Crysler range in Chelsea the ten small planes turned and has told: «Ford».
Hardly later the car have tired out in the closed garage, and to racers have shown, in what there was a business. On the engine have established the small carburettor at all that productivity, that on racing motors Hemi. Certainly, the car will not go quickly! Certainly, knew, that this historical day people from Ford will watch not disembarkation of the American astronauts to the Moon, and behind first tests Charger Daytona. Let think, that the Winged monster is not too terrible, and that, look, and to itself same will build.
As soon as of tests have ceased to observe, Daytona has shown on what is capable. Even with the same small carburettor and slightly modifed aerodynamics it has given out 204 miles at an o’clock (328 km/h). When on the car have put the high-grade racing engine, has developed on it 235, and 243 miles. These are more than 390 kilometres per hour! The confidence of success became absolute.
But besides several racing it was necessary to make and 500 civil cars. Preparation lots of cars have charged companies Creative Industries. It is necessary to tell, that then chief NASCAR Bill France (Bill France) has been incited against all «aerodynamical cars» even like Ford Torino Talladega, let alone Charger Daytona. And for couple of days before the first race in Creative Industries “check” has appeared suddenly whether all five hundred are already ready? Well. Eyewitnesses spoke later: «we in a warehouse had 503 cars, and the commission has counted all!»
By the way, as to civil Charger Daytona it bought not especially willingly. Though the price of $4000 for the version with 425-strong Hemi was enough adequate (the car with 440-kubovym the motor was even cheaper), to the majority it seemed the terrible ugly creature. they would know, fools as everyones will envy such wings now! The aerodynamic weather-cloth besides did not give any advantages in races on a mile quarter, so favourite by usual Americans but only added to weight one hundred with a superfluous kilogramme.
But with Charger Daytona there was one curious problem. On low speeds, that is to hundred kilometres per hour, the motor simply overheated! And that it to avoid, it was necessary not to go, and to rush. At reckless drivers laughed: «COPS he will tell, that tried to cool a cursor a little!»
First race Charger Daytona has not appeared nearly broken. During test arrivals on a new line in pilots complained of discomfort and strong jolting to such degree, what not could to see normally. The line was rough, the car body was shaken with amplitude of ten centimetres some times in a second. The same problems have arisen and at racers Ford. Besides the covering was abrasive, and standard tyres were quickly erased! And to develop new, adapted under such asphalt, suppliers (Firestone and Goodyear) did not have time. Became ripe scandal. All understood, that race in can become unsafe.
On qualification has shown excellent result “trap” has fixed 199,987 miles at an o’clock. All who saw it, have been shaken till such speed on an oval track any was not dispersed yet наскаровская the car! Naturally, the car has received 1 place on start.
But race was not took. Despite the fact that what Bill France has personally sat down in a fighting vehicle (the truth, weaker class) and has passed on it about fifty circles in length of 2,6 miles to show, that all is safe, many have refused participation. Including the strongest competitors Charger Daytona. Therefore it is no wonder, that the remained have been easily torn in shreds. But chief engineer Dajtony Larri Ratgeb (Larry Rathgeb) was upset. After all how many works were necessary to build cars in time, how many nerves have left on belief of the heads that pilots left on dangerous and risky start. Also it has appeared is there was a shot from a gun on sparrows …
