Ginetta G50 EV (electric) to go up Goodwood hill this w/e

[dandarez]

Goodwood Fest Speed.
This should be interesting if it qualifies for Sunday final (sadly I can't go but my son is on Sunday).
Mr Tomlinson certainly knows how to get publicity - leccy cars have torque which is ideal for a hill climb - here's hoping it does really well.

It does sound good. How much does it cost to get into Goodwood?
At only 40 miles away I'm not sure if I'll go yet.

Just read the road test in Autocar. If this makes it into production IMO it'll knock the Tesla off it's pedestal. Similar performance and range, superb handling, lighter than the Tesla, much cheaper and IMHO better looking.

I also like the fact that the engine's reported to make a rather extraordinary noise, rather than resorting to the silent hum that the government would like. Apparently it sounds like a great big whining supercharger. Perfect.
