For the first of the Team Bath Racing cars, the decision was taken to sharpen focus on lightweighting the car. This meant moving away from the carbon boards used for BURT05 , and returning to a steel spaceframe design. This resulted in a weight saving of around 30kg relative to 2005, which was shown in the results – TBR06 marked the point at which Team Bath Racing began to climb the international leaderboards, with a win in the UK skidpad event.
