Virtual Race Info:
With my Citicar at 48 volts, it would accelerate like this:
0-25 ~ 6.5 seconds.
0-32 ~ 16.0 seconds
With a top speed of about 37 MPH field weakened. I estimate that the 48v 1/8 mile time/speed would be about 19 seconds @ 36 MPH.

At 64v, I rarely use FW as it accelerates just fine without it. It gets to 40 MPH as well as a normally accelerating IC vehicle, and does about 42 or so without FW.
One nemesis was the tunnels leading in and out of Alameda. The speed limit is 45, and at 48v it would get there reasonably well (going downhill...) and was able to hold 45 on the floor of the tunnel with FW on. Going back out (uphill) was another matter. Even with FW on, the speed wold decay to about 30 to 32 MPH. With FW off, it would probably decay to about 27 MPH. Once outside the tunnel on level ground, it would take a while to accelerate back to about 35.
At 64v, the speed downhill and on the floor, without resorting to FW are the same as I limit it to about 45 to keep from over-revving the motor. Going uphill, it now maintains 40 with FW on, and gets back to 45 once out of the tunnel quite easily.
