Wind Tunnel
Last winter 'Seven' was further developed by using the A2Wind Tunnel (A2WT) facility in North Carolina. It scored the lowest Coefficient of Drag that the A2WT has ever recorded. With this new data we are ensuring we not only retain the current world record, but exceed it in this next coming year.
