Indy AI Racecar Sets Hillclimb Record at Goodwood Festival
==========

The Indy Autonomous Challenge's (IAC) self-driving AV-24 racecar, developed by Team PoliMOVE-MSU, set the record for the fastest autonomous Hillclimb at the Festival of Speed in Goodwood, England. The previous record was held by Roborace since 2019. The AV-24 completed the hill climb in a time of [unknown] seconds at a top speed of 101.16 mph (162.8 kph). The challenging course required precise control of grip and slippage, as well as reliance on the AV-24's Luminar Iris lidars. The IAC and PoliMOVE-MSU teams worked with Bridgestone's tire engineers to optimize performance. The achievement demonstrates the potential of self-driving vehicles for future deployment on roads. Bridgestone, the tire sponsor, expressed pride in supporting the achievement and their commitment to improving autonomous technologies. The Indy Autonomous Challenge is focused on advancing autonomous mobility.
