My 3200 pound, 300 hp gasoline car did 133 mph after one mile on the Salt Flats -- It'll be impressive to see a little 1100 pound electric do it. Good luck!

I'm guessing your "motorcycle batteries" might be Hawker AGM type, like maybe 680's ?

Be careful going that fast. Now can you run up to the store and go shopping in that?
