Journey to 200 Speed Tests at Elvington

The Great British Weather!

Despite horrendous conditions last week saw Mike and the speed of sight team begin testing behind closed doors at Elvington Aerodrome near York. This was Mikes first time in the Keating TKR and needless to say he enjoyed himself immensly reaching speeds in excess of 130 mph, though due to the weather any serious High Speed braking was totally out of the question.

As a starting point on the Journey to 200 we couldn't have picked a worse couple of days but the car worked well and Mike was able to get a feel for it, more testing is scheduled in the coming weeks so keep checking the site for updates, in the meantime feel free to look at the new pictures taken during testing.

Once again Mike and the team would like to thank everybody for their continued support and also welcome Intel to the Speed of Sight experience.
