MotorTranskript
00:00Do you actually think about driving the 911 to the highest accessible point in the world?
00:10That's a once in a lifetime opportunity.
00:15Setbacks always come with it.
00:18Extreme wind.
00:21Sandstorms.
00:23Extreme cold.
00:27The sun was brutal for me.
00:30Never as it was.
00:41Yes, the beginning was exciting back then.
00:43It was still a relatively young time for me in the series, also for Frank Walser and one evening.
00:49These were the typical evening conversations that you still had.
00:52We came around the corner and said, I've just returned from a business trip and was talking to Klaus Zellmer.
00:56And ask me the question, what do you actually think about driving the 911 to the highest accessible point in the world?
01:04And yes, I have to laugh at first.
01:07And yes, cool idea.
01:09The question about the altitude record and where can I actually drive with the four-wheel drive vehicle?
01:14At what altitude did we get to in Chile?
01:17Namely, to Ustel Salado.
01:18Jin himself says it's one of the toughest records.
01:21Jin's official world record had stood since 2007.
01:26And we went ahead anyway.
01:28Accepted the challenge and looked at how far we could get and what we could do to top it.
01:34Of course, a large part of this altitude world record is also down to the driver Roma, Dumer.
01:42Without him, as such a professional driver, I'm quite sure we wouldn't have achieved this record.
01:47He knows what the car can do and used the car correctly.
01:53First, there was our car called Doris.
01:57The successor to D came E, and then it was clear that we would get a German-French development team.
02:06But we also had to make sure that we showed some respect to the French.
02:11And then we came up with the name Edit.
02:18Edit Pia, very well known in France.
02:21We knew in advance that the expedition would actually be divided into two parts.
02:26At the beginning, it was dry and hot.
02:31So the altitude wasn't necessarily a huge issue, but the sun.
02:36And the higher you get, the additional challenge of the altitude is, of course, their deaths.
02:42What really happens up there with the heat, the altitude, the low oxygen levels...
02:48It's hard to imagine in advance.
02:51No clear division of tasks.
02:53Everyone has their own main job during the expedition, but everyone does everything.
02:59Everyone helps out.
03:02The doctors also help to clear boulders and paths, remove ice, and so on.
03:09No one is too good for anything.
03:13Everyone lends a hand wherever a hand is needed.
03:14And I think that was the special reason we got so far and why we ultimately set the record.
03:21The hardest thing for me up there was on the second expedition when we prepared the route
03:26through the ice, chopping away the ice spikes to create a path for the car.
03:33Two days of toiling at over 6,000 meters.
03:36You can't imagine how exhausting that must be.
03:38Our base camp was at 4,500 meters.
03:44We parked the edit on the lower glacier at an altitude of about 5,500 meters.
03:51That was the starting position for our record attempt.
03:55We started at 3.30 in the morning with the support vehicles, drove up a bit,
04:01and then positioned ourselves at our meeting point at the top.
04:06It took maybe a quarter of an hour.
04:09Then Romar arrived with the edit.
04:12That worked out wonderfully.
04:14You could already tell that today could be a big day.
04:19But I don't think either of us noticed the record itself when it was reached.
04:24It was already a bit further up the mountain.
04:26Then I was on the glacier with one of the doctors,
04:29and I actually found out about the record
04:31when the first of the guides descended and came towards me with tears in his eyes.
04:37It was very emotional.
04:38Then everything was an update.
04:39For me, it was like at some point I decided I wanted to be there.
04:43I wanted to be there when the vehicle reached the record altitude.
04:47I then ran up the mountain, and then the show came towards me
04:51and asked me if I had heard on the radio what had happened.
05:00There was no 5 in it.
05:01I didn't know anything.
05:04Then he told me,
05:05We made it.
05:09We were at the very top of the summit, and
05:11When I heard that
05:15in the middle of the climb,
05:17the last few meters to the summit,
05:19we hugged each other
05:20and
05:21sat down.
05:24I had tears in my eyes.
05:27I really cried.
05:29So when you find out
05:30that we reached our goal
05:32and not only broke a record,
05:34but drove all the way to this summit,
05:36to this summit platform,
05:38and achieved what others
05:39had not achieved before
05:42thanks to our
05:43car-nana-ing.
05:46So it was really great.
06:02Yes, when you have the task of turning a 911
06:05into an off-road vehicle
06:07in an extremely short time,
06:09we have a window of three months,
06:10you obviously need a great team
06:12that works well together.
06:14We need great partners,
06:15and of course,
06:16he needs the right idea,
06:16which you don't have to ask for for long.
06:18It has to be right.
06:19The wheels are massively different from an 11.
06:22They are significantly larger.
06:23We also have to stretch the wheels a bit
06:25in terms of the structure,
06:26which means wheel positions are different,
06:28and above all,
06:29the wheel center has to be pushed significantly lower
06:30in order to achieve the clearance that we have here
06:32with a good 300mm to 350mm.
06:34And what has helped us a lot here
06:37is our partner, Tibus,
06:39who makes these portal transmissions.
06:41This means that you can provide the wheels
06:42with an offset relative to the input shaft
06:45and at the same time,
06:46change the gear ratio.
06:48The offset helps us with the wheel position
06:49that I mentioned,
06:50and the change in gear ratio
06:51helps us off-road
06:52to be able to transfer the torque
06:53accordingly, quickly,
06:54and effectively
06:55to the transmission.
06:57Basic decision was that we wanted to use
06:59as many of the same components
07:00as possible in the car.
07:02This means that an unchanged manual transmission
07:04with a single-speed gearbox
07:06is installed.
07:07E.G clutch and differential lock
07:09from the GT3.
07:10We have the original 992 Carrera S engine,
07:15and of course,
07:16the chassis itself has been changed since then.
07:19That means the suspension is completely new here.
07:21We have significantly more suspension travel,
07:23up to 30cm at the wheel.
07:24Yes, we have a completely different steering configuration,
07:28and our specialty here
07:30is the warp connector.
07:33This is a system that connects the front and rear axles
07:35and makes the car extremely torsionally flexible
07:37so that it can, let's say,
07:39very, very elegantly overcome bumps
07:41with constant wheel loads
07:42while remaining extremely rigid
07:44in the rolling direction
07:45so that when you drive
07:46diagonally onto a slope,
07:48the car doesn't tip over on its side
07:49as is usually the case
07:50with extremely softly sprung off-road vehicles.
07:53You can see here
07:55that we have relocated
07:57the radiators from the front area
07:59where they are usually located
08:00into the trunk.
08:02This simply gives us significant advantages
08:04in terms of approach and departure angle.
08:06The vehicle has an aluminum underbody.
08:08We could attach a jack
08:09to any point on the underbody.
08:12Of course, that also helps us
08:14and protects us from damage.
08:16If the car really does slide over a boulder,
08:19nothing will break.
08:21We also installed a winch
08:23which is also located here
08:24in the front area below.
08:27Exactly.
08:27And so we set off
08:29on the first expedition,
08:30gathered our experience,
08:31learned a lot during the expedition,
08:33and then decided
08:35to bring a new partner
08:38to the project, Roma Dima,
08:39and build a second vehicle.
08:43Only this second vehicle
08:45should not simply be
08:46a duplicate of our Dores,
08:47but based on lessons learned,
08:50we wanted to further develop it,
08:53and that's how the auto-edit came about.
08:57That means that
08:57with the first prototype attempt,
08:59we learned a great deal
09:00about what really matters,
09:01and so we made a list of things
09:03that were actually useless
09:05or that need to be improved.
09:06Let's say we use the spare parts
09:08we still had from the Doris
09:09to build a second vehicle
09:11with the potential
09:13to be even better.
09:14Edit weighs 360 kilograms
09:17less than Doris,
09:18and that is clearly noticeable
09:20when driving.
09:22Another significant advantage
09:23was the basic concept,
09:24which is also identical
09:26to the Porsche Warb connector.
09:27What we also did
09:29was to reduce the weight.
09:32We used standard parts
09:33of our own, of course,
09:35e.g. from the GT3 cup,
09:39the windshield, the door.
09:41From the cup,
09:42we installed a carbon fiber roof,
09:45which we have as standard.
09:49Instead of an aluminum underbody,
09:50we have a Keffler underbody
09:52on this vehicle.
09:53We have different rims,
09:55which are significantly lighter,
09:57and therefore result
09:58in a significant weight reduction.
10:01What we also did
10:02was to further improve
10:03the approach angle
10:04here at the front
10:05and create additional space
10:08in the front trunk
10:09by no longer positioning
10:11the radiators in the trunk.
10:14Instead, this is our special feature.
10:16The large air scoops here
10:17in the area
10:18where the rear window
10:19would normally be
10:19are located below here.
10:21This is where the air coolers
10:23are located,
10:24and we relocated them there.
10:26That's why there's a bulkhead
10:27behind the driver here
10:28so that if something were to happen,
10:30the driver isn't in danger.
10:34Otherwise, the vehicle
10:36is very much identical
10:38to the other one.
10:39We have one more specialty.
10:42We've also installed
10:43the electronics
10:44and additional recording capabilities
10:48in the Weir car.
10:50There are hard drives in here
10:55to record data
10:56for the Weir system.
10:59The car doesn't have
11:01a conventional steering column
11:02like other vehicles,
11:04but instead has sensors
11:05and actuators up here.
11:08You can freely adjust
11:09the feedback forces
11:11the driver receives
11:13from the chassis
11:13and the force he needs
11:15to operate the steering below.
11:19I have an actuator
11:20at the bottom
11:20that ultimately operates
11:23our normal steering.
11:25What you can see
11:26very clearly on the vehicle
11:27because it's exposed here
11:28is the connector,
11:30which you can see here
11:30as a rod
11:31that runs from front to back.
11:33A very solid steel construction
11:35with guides
11:35that simply connects
11:37the wheels to each other
11:38as we were able to explain
11:39with the model car.
11:40We have a new partner
11:41on board here,
11:42the company, HIV.
11:44With HIV,
11:46we have an
11:46e-fuel system
11:49in Ponta Arenas
11:50in the south of Chile
11:52and it has to be said
11:53that the novelty here,
11:55Eiffel,
11:56has worked wonderfully.
11:59Roma could not detect
12:00any differences
12:01to fossil fuel.
12:04We had already run
12:06a so-called altitude application
12:07on the engine
12:08in the Doris.
12:09This means that
12:10the engine characteristics map
12:11has to be adapted
12:11for these extreme altitudes
12:12where the oxygen density
12:13is very, very low
12:14because otherwise
12:15the performance
12:16would have collapsed
12:16to less than a quarter.
12:18We used the altitude chamber
12:19for aircraft engine development
12:20to develop this application
12:21and the switch to e-fuel
12:23did not require any changes.
12:25This means that
12:26we were able to operate
12:26the engine
12:27exactly as it was
12:28with the same characteristics map
12:29with the EULs.
12:30What we also have
12:31is a design
12:32by Sven
12:33which was manufactured
12:34directly on site
12:36in Chile.
12:38So these running boards
12:39were invented
12:40on the mountain.
12:41The only person
12:42who can normally drive
12:44is the driver.
12:45We only have one seat
12:46for the ride
12:47so we only have
12:48one seat.
12:50One person
12:50was then chosen
12:51who volunteered
12:52to do it
12:53said he would do it
12:54and he would stand
12:55on it sideways
12:55which made it easier
12:57to transport.
12:59The day,
13:00the record day
13:01started at 3.30
13:02in the morning.
13:03I think we didn't get back
13:05to camp
13:05until 9 in the evening
13:07so it was extremely
13:08strenuous for everyone
13:10and that's when we actually
13:11took advantage
13:12of the opportunity here.
13:14Two people on one side
13:15two people
13:16on the other side.
13:17One of them
13:18positioned himself up here
13:19and then
13:20after the record
13:21had been achieved
13:22we went back
13:23down
13:23to base camp.
13:25I don't think you really
13:26understood it
13:27at the beginning.
13:28You prepare for it
13:29for so long
13:30and then it just happens.
13:32I don't mean just.
13:33It's a lot of planning,
13:35a lot of effort
13:36but then it's there
13:36and understanding
13:37what they've achieved
13:39where they've stood with it
13:40that takes a very
13:41very long time.
13:43And the most important
13:45thing for me
13:45is what was created
13:46there with the people
13:47also in this company
13:49and this team
13:50and the group
13:50that will be something
13:51that will certainly
13:52remain unforgettable.
13:55No.
14:25No.
