Sixty miles per hour

After work at midnight I decided to finally find out the "performance" figures for the Electric Booger on the way home. Not exactly accurate as I was looking down at a stopwatch while I accelerated (really safe, I know!), but still, ball park figures to get an idea.

0-30 mph: 12 sec
0-40 mph: 22 sec
0-50 mph: 35 sec
0-60 mph: 55 sec

THAT'S RIGHT! 60 MPH IN A 72V EV!

It probably would have gone faster, but I didn't want my little motor to turn into molten lava, especially with the big hill I still had to climb on the way home.
