Show Notes

This podcast is a conversation with Eloi Roset from team AMZ Racing, who recently broke the 0 - 100 kilometres an hour record, launching from a standing start to 100 kph in 0.956 seconds. 

We break down how the team designed and built the world's fastest-accelerating car and the challenges they ran into. Eloi explains the details of the aerodynamics, suspension, powertrain and tyres, and it’s a fascinating conversation.
