You can’t store that unused capacity?
Many electric fires and electrocutions in the future I bet.
The current LA to NY Cannonball record for an electric car is 51h47m in a Tesla Model S 85D in 2017. The current Cannonball record for all cars is 31h4m in a BMW M5 in 2006.
How was the logistics of the power resupply handled would be my first question.
Tanker truck overturns, 150 dead!
Only happens in Somalia and Nigeria...
Your post makes no sense!
Every year 168 people die from gas fires in the US!
How many have been electrocuted by EVs?
Did they just plug it in every 300 miles for 30 minutes, an hour, two hours? Did they have pre-positioned charging stations just for the run? Did they have the capability to quickly replace the batteries at logistically coordinated locations?
Not to be snarky but I have a history of professional endurance road racing back to 1995. I think I know a thing or two about endurance racing logistics because I have seen a thing or two about racing logistics. Two Rolex champion teams 2003 and 2011.
Does that make any sense to you?
Given that Tesla has super charging stations about every 100 miles on the interstates the could use those.
Thank you. That is what I was asking for.
See here.
They used Tesla supercharging stations.
Red markers are currently open. Gray are opening soon.
Agenda or ulterior motives? Do not run into that level of frenzy too often here.
