I had the opportunity to experience an Aston Martin GT4 at Yas Marina F1 circuit which changed my perspective insights about different racing lines and traction. Grip (or traction) is what keeps us on the track, allowing us to brake, accelerate and turn. However, finding the limit of grip and continually driving at it, is not easy to perfect. There are two ways a tyre can break grip: laterally and longitudinally. When a tyre breaks grip sideways, the car slide will understeer or oversteer.

Performance Racing Industry (PRI) did a deep dive on what it takes to build a transmission that will hold up to the extreme demands of diesel drag racing, and they leaned on our experts at #RevMax Converters for some insight. The world of performance transmissions can be highly technical, but we appreciate the opportunity to be able to share with the industry! #dieselperformance #performancetransmission #performanceindustry

Hedda Hosås on developing the groundbreaking Pioneer 25 Extreme H car The Extreme H car, the Pioneer 25, has undergone an intensive testing programme ever since the world’s first hydrogen racing series was announced. Hedda Hosås, who has competed in three of the four Extreme E seasons – taking one podium finish – has been one of the development drivers of the Pioneer 25. Hedda Hosås, Extreme H Development Driver said; "Driving the Pioneer 25, the world's first Extreme H car, has been an exhilarating experience. This car is a significant evolution from the previous models, with many improvements based on lessons learned from three seasons of Extreme E. Our testing has focused on both reliability and performance. The goal has been to improve on what we've raced before and evolve the championship."
