01 1770 CUGNOT'S 3-WHEEL STEAM trACTOR (FRANCE)
The first road vehicles were powered by steam and this one built in Paris by Nicholas Joseph Cugnot (1723-1804) would only run for 15 minutes at about 6 mph The drive was through the front wheel and the weight of all the mechanism and made it difficult to steer so it was very unsafe. Big coal-fired steam coaches ran surprisingly well in Britain around 1830 but steam engines were generally too heavy and too complicated to operate successfully in private cars though four firms Serpollet in France and White Stanley Doble in the USA built practical liquid fired cars - the latter two as late as the 1920's.

現今世界冠軍雷諾車隊響叮噹............大家都知.....
你們不要老是只知道雷諾很強......強什麼?..強在哪裡?...你告訴我呀?........誰能告訴我我配服你........

二十世紀初最早期的雷諾就狠強了..........再到創首開渦輪引擎高峰的時代......再到無敵六連霸引擎製造廠冠軍...到最近開花結果的全廠車世界冠軍頭銜入袋........我不知道裕隆牌這個豬腦袋除了知道雷諾拿下最近兩年F1冠軍和阿龍嫂的車手冠軍還會講什麼?.......

我還要告訴你們........從渦輪引擎到自然吸氣為什麼雷諾能這麼強(當然風水還是輪流轉)....不過雷諾引擎發展是比其他F1對手包括法拉利要早狠多的......他們除了有一項由雷諾所發明的近代F1引擎技術乃不用汽門彈簧的氣壓技術....之外....還有一套全多汽缸各種夾角的引擎聖經(全實際數據).......強過法拉利甚多.........

你們知道嗎?.........我在十年前在某不見經傳的汽車雜誌就報導過了.......怎麼現在資訊發達還有專業汽車雜誌人還搞不清的!?.........小心我在後面監視你們.........
你們一定要進步才行............


不過說要到F1......以前並不叫F1.....香港人所說的格蘭披治 Grand Prix 大獎賽之F1前身.....
最猛的莫過於1906年一戰成名的雷諾賽車........
Renault Grand Prix de l'A.C.F.
Renault 3B 90CV



這輛格蘭披治等級的雷諾賽車是...
直列前置四缸引擎...
後輪驅動........
166*150mm....
12,986cc........
90bhp@1,200rpm

用白話說是一萬三千西西.....且只有四缸!.......一個活塞差不多是三千西西的容量.........差不多是三個寶特瓶的總合!...說活塞還不如說是水桶!........這麼大的汽缸要拉轉速是不可能的......但是扭力肯定驚人.........一個punch一定打得你人仰馬翻........不過當時的技術來說(零件製造及材質強度等)....一般引擎都是這樣.....

但當時的引擎都在實驗階段...也有如標緻等車廠在製造小bebe單缸引擎(約三百西西)的........以當時火星塞都像拳頭一樣大......說實在也一時沒辦法縮小引擎的機件的結構.........這也是原因之一吧.......

不過後來逐漸在F1發展出多缸小排氣量技術及材質進步........馬力要大...又要耐得助爆發的力量....一個汽缸活塞可以逐漸製造得愈來愈小..........有助於什麼?......當然是引擎轉速........小的活塞比大的活塞運動靈活.......我在十幾年前就說過了.......十幾年前聽起來好像有點好漢提當年勇厚?..........我實在告訴你們.......當時媒體報導根本不能滿足我的求知.........你們都去翻翻當時的雜誌....就知道我說什麼了.......我對於編號尤其是特別認真注意......但是當時的媒體都千篇一律說這個引擎很強.....馬力驚人之類的說詞.....

你還不知道我說什麼的話.......我就沒話說了..........

(三秒靜候......)

好.......

還有你不要小看這後驅......因為它是由路易雷諾首創的軸傳動.......你也不要小看這軸傳動......那時其他強敵如兵士及飛雅特的賽車都嘛是鍊條傳動的.....有些小朋友可能還不能理解我在說什麼.......所謂鍊條傳動就是像腳踏車一樣的........動力會損失的.....明白吧......

而發明軸傳動的正是雷諾汽車.......

The 1906 version of the Renault Grand Prix car became famous when it won the first French Grand Prix. The races was held at the Circuit de Sarthe near Le Mans and covered 1200 km (777 miles) over two days. The cars were built under a new formula that called for a maximum weight of 1000 kg. Three cars could be entered by each manufacturer, operated by a crew of two, both were permitted to drive. Fuel consumption was limited to 30 liters/100 km. Renault's shaft driven car was not the most advanced car entered but it had two distinct advantages. One was the first use of hydraulic dampers on a race car and the second more important advantage was the adoption of rear wheels with removable rims. The new rims allowed two people the ability to change both rear wheels in less than 4 minutes as opposed to the 16 minutes required by fixed rims. Ferenc Szisz, a native of Hungary, was Renault's chief test driver. During the race he had to stop nine-times due to tire punctures yet because of the removable rims he was able to finish exhausted but thirty-two minutes ahead of the second place Nazzaro in a Fiat.
