I love this guy's attitude. A 1972 Datsun with 60 batteries.

That thing shoots off the line like a rocket! I want to see the DOC do that.
 
John Wayland.....pretty cool guy. Met him about a year or two ago at an EV Drag Race.... he SMOKED everyone..... crazy fast.

here's his Blue Meanie at an EV show, right behind my bike:



And another closer shot:

What does it do the 1/4 mile in?

What type of batteries?

Sounds like a hell of a ride. :shock:

Deron.
 
lead acid...the batteries are red. I think he was using a racing battery. I can't remember what they are called.
 
Still absolutely cutting edge.

The controller is a http://www.cafeelectric.com/ Zilla, and one of the saddest bits if news is it's out of production until Otmar can find someone with both cash and passion to resume production.

IMHO this is "THE" DC controller.

If Thomas Edison had had this - that wipper-snapper Tesla Nilola would never have won out with his new fangled AC.

PS I noticed in the New Scientist that AC is out and DC is back in for ultra efficient high voltage power transmission lines. Edison & Westinghouse was right all along.
 
Maybe you dont know about this crazy guy.. but he got the killacycle first battery (990 A123 cells)!! 375Vdc and half megawatt of total power!!

He beat his 1/4 mile score with this battery!

search on youtube. you willfind an interview that show it
