Catesby Tunnel houses a 2.7km-long, purpose-built, straight-road test track allowing an extensive range of vehicle assessment studies to be carried out on full-scale vehicles. The tunnel is suitable for automotive and motorsport applications and capable of testing vehicle performance, vehicle aerodynamics (drag and downforce/lift), noise, soiling and cooling performance. One specific aerodynamic test Catesby Tunnel is perfectly set up to accommodate is coastdown. This session will present the latest test results in collaboration with Subaru Corporation in Japan.
