Wow what an amazing weekend the 25th RACV Energy Breakthrough was! After a huge year behind the scenes it was just fantastic for our EEV Powerswitch built with Rode RAGE to take out not only the EEV section and our category by 71laps but also the overall line honours just edging out an incredible fast and consistent Woodleigh in the last hour. Along the way we took Pole Position (at an average of 49km/h) and also won Design and Construction and Display and Presentation. This was GTrikes 5th Design and Construction win in 5 years.
We were well represented across all categories with almost 10% of all HPV vehicles at the event having passed through our workshop doors at some stage. St Martins HPV Team had a fantastic run with their brand new Fluteus Corfluter taking 2nd on the grid and ended up second at the end of their 8hr trial and also being Tryathlon Open runners up and even held the lead of the trial for a period of time!
Throughout the year we've also worked very closely with St Margaret's and Berwick Grammar to help them construct and build their vehicles and in particular use our knowledge of the Resin Infusion process to build them light, strong and safe fairings with them from their own molds. They had a great race with their all Female team Pegasus Winning their category with a clean sweep and their open team PerZeus And their B1 team Chyrsaor both being runners up in their category.
