Thanks for posting that Metro !
I found out some more about the guy that races the car.
His name is Dave Cloud, and he converts cars in the Seattle area.
Here is a site with a car that he converted.
What surprised me was this paragraph :

Quote " On Saturday, May 10, 2008, the volt runner ran away with the honors at the Seattle Electric Vehicle Association's Marathon Rally in Everett. On a single battery charge, she covered 101.4 miles at 55 mph using lead acid golf cart batteries. "

Very, very impressive !
