And that is 12-17 laps of tracks which are specifically tailored to suit FE, so low speeds, no long straights and lots of energy recovery.
Im not sure it could even manage a lap of the nordschleiffe at full speed without running out of puff. 28 kWh of battery means it can do 280 kw, roughly 380bhp for 6 minutes. Even if it can recover a lot of power (where generation, storage and redeployment all take efficiency losses), im not sure if those figures add up.
It depends how you add it up, given the motor is 270bhp or around 200kW you seem to have used the wrong values.Im not sure it could even manage a lap of the nordschleiffe at full speed without running out of puff. 28 kWh of battery means it can do 280 kw, roughly 380bhp for 6 minutes.

So possibly 4 Laps of Silverstone. Ouch.
They are trying to set up a European Tesla race series, which would come to the UK. No details on dates on their website

Races are to be at least 50km long, which is 8 laps of Silverstone GP, or 19 laps of the National Course, so a race length of about 20 minutes.

Yeah, they still have some way to go on that...http://www.electricgt.co/teams/
