Get hands on and experiment in designing for speed in this interactive space.


Ready to get hands on? The Engineering Centre is the place to go!
Here, you’ll find out more about the science behind the speed. Learn about the technology that makes high speeds possible and see the tools mechanics use to get the best out of their machines.
Why not take the chance to discover how the shape of the vehicle makes a difference to its speed? Try one of the models in the wind tunnel and feel the difference for each shape. Or how about testing the effects of friction and gravity? Choose your favourite car, line it up at the top of the test track, then let it go and see which one is fastest.
