ECOCar Daytona Test Vehicle Reaches 65 mph at Daytona
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University students participating in EcoCAR: The Next Challenge found a perfect destination for testing of their bio-diesel hybrid vehicle – historic Daytona International Speedway.
On Wednesday morning, the bio-diesel hybrid vehicle reached speeds as high as 65 mph while touring the 2.5-mile tri-oval on the apron. The students were able to use the flat and smooth surface of Daytona International Speedway to gather data on the performance of the car.
Following the test, the students posed with the car at the legendary start/finish line.
