A2 Wind Tunnel is a full-scale general-purpose wind tunnel—an aerodynamics testing facility—located in Mooresville, North Carolina. Created in 2006 by Gary Eaker after the success of Aerodyn Wind Tunnel, a full-scale wind tunnel purpose-built for NASCAR testing.

Some of the more notable entities to utilize testing at A2 Wind Tunnel include Lance Armstrong, Kristin Armstrong, the 2010 winter olympics gold medalist U.S. bobsled team with "NightTrain".
