Yep - I was pretending to be "pit-crew"
So the short answer is NO but the long answer is YES.

Luv the video! Gr8 "GoPro" pov camera.
Hey - what is really impressive is the number of contestants!!!
Technical - the advantage in the tilting pod - less energy loss in the cornering or simply better road holding?

If you have a look at the ev challenge website (www.evchallenge.org.au) it has the timing sheets. In the first race which was SLA batteries only the top average speed was 33km/h. The second race had the top speed average stuffed up by a timing error - it says the fastest lap was an 18 second lap making the average speed 180km/h+! The real fastest lap was a 1.32 by the Class C and overall winners River Raiders - Rod's team.
Using the fastest lap in race 1 - a 1:42.43 or 102.43 seconds - and the posted fastest lap average speed of 33km/h i figured out the track is about 940m long, give or take. Using that figure the fastest real lap done in race 2, the 1:32 by the river raiders, works out to be about 36.6km/h average speed.
Not bad Rod!
