  4. Banking On The Turn

  5. Design Speed Equation

  6. Equation of Maximum Velocity • (Vmax)2 = [(sin + scos) / (cos - ssin)]gr •  is equal to the degree of banking of the particular turn • s is the coefficient of static friction between the track and the tires • g is acceleration due to gravity • r is the radius of the particular turn

  7. Derivation of Maximum Velocity Equation
