Interesting, wonder how far it can go on the batteries?
Did you make it to Po's Sunday??

295ftlbs of instant torque I wonder what that feels like :good2:

wonder if all that torque kills the tires? On the other hand with no gear changing or power pulses from the motor maybe it evens out..
That video was intense! What a flat as hell & confusing track - I've been at AMA races at that track before and thought the same thing back then. I love the big straight giving that bike a chance to strut its stuff - but it was hard to see where the hell you were supposed to go! Of course, these guys have every apex and entry point memorized...
I also love the fact that the team owner is the actual lead rider too. :good2:
