until it reaches 1.21 gigawatts it's not gonna be the best.
on a side note the first thing I saw when I showed my rx7 to my brother was "when this baby his 88mph your gonna see some serious ****."
go to the dc power systems page and it is there(under the hood shot)

Neat car. I wonder how much it costs to convert.
EDIT: 6-10k according to the site.

They are fast because, depite the weight of the batteries........
Electric motors=BIG torque at any RPM.
Electric motors power the hugest machines in the world,because they are simple,smooth and powerful.
Once you have huge,lag free torque on tap then its just a matter of gearing, to maximize launch traction and juggle topend speed.

i've always been thinking about doing this someday its just awsome that someone has, electric will always be much faster and easier then gas, just takes the right people to show you how its done.
i guess in a way its still a rotary too lol.

see the thing for making an electric car making huge numbers like that isn't the hard part for them, but more putting that in a street car that you need to drive for a prolong amount of time. For these car you really don't need the car running more than 5 minutes. So it doesn't matter if you're discipation all the energy in those batteries in 10 minutes cause its only a track car. Take that on the street see him go a few block and the engine is out of power. Thats the thing about different fuels for out cars, which ones can we really use without having to refill it ever couple of hours or so. Its like in france and australia, they have this compressed air rotary engine (If you go to www.youtube.com and search it you'll find it) neat little engine that they will be starting to use in industries to carry things around, the whole engine basically weighs about 15lb if i remember correctly and produces enough power to haul people around and things in the back !!! thats what I call insane power to weight ratio.
