The Bendigo Youth Racing team returned to the RMIT Wind Tunnel on Saturday October 20th not only to test our vehicle BY-O6 MkII, but also to assist the RACV Energy Breakthrough crew as part of the Transurban Vehicle Efficiency Day. This fantastic opportunity was organised for teams that are entered in next months RACV Energy Breakthrough. The BYR team was responsible for running three of the four test stations which included, weighing each vehicle, Rolling Resistance and Manoeuvrability tests. The team thoroughly enjoyed the day and the opportunity to ride a vast variety of vehicles from Hybrids to HPV's . And for the priceless knowledge that was gained in the wind tunnel for possible future modifications to our Aero Package. We had a fantastic day and would urge more teams to get on board if the day goes ahead again in 2008.
