It's an Electric Spyder 550!

Once running the track time sheet will be added to the page. I'm shooting for 0 to 60 mph in under 5 seconds. The car weighs 2600 pounds and the weight ratio, front to rear is 44/56. The motor develops over 300 horsepower.

Heres what's under the hood.

• Kostov DC motor
• 2 T-Rex controller from DC Power Systems now ALLTrax, Inc (1000 amp)
• 24 Optima yellow top batteries
• 3 Zivan battery chargers
• 23 PowerCheq battery equalizers
• Todd DC to DC converter
• 2 Kilovac EV250-2A contactor from CII Technologies (same as the one in the EV1)
• Link 10 (E-Meter) from Xantrex for voltage reading and for gather data for the Palm display
• Heineman circuit breaker
• 800 amp fuse
• small motorcycle battery
• lots of 2/0 cable
• Pirelli P7000 Supersport tires

Here's a schematic of the car's power system.
