love ya work dude ,me and my dad just got a electric charade ( small road car) runs 16 batts and cant belive the power/ takes off in any gear ( 5th) with no problems

Amazing car man. Nice video too. Thats the weirdest way of pronouncing 'Datsun' I've ever heard though. Sounds like 'Dartsun'. Keep up the good work though.

Absolutely unreal, A great thing you're doing. Goodluck with it!

It is a shame that it is so expensive to set a car up like yours but it is great to see someone paving the way to a greener perormance future. If I could afford it I would be definately interested in doing this to my 120Y Panel Van. I can see it now. All that old school exterior technoligy and an electric motor as a heart. Sounds like a plan. Shame I can't afford it.

Out of curiosity, apart from the obvious long term nature of your project, reasearch, different motors and setups that you have run over the last 10 years or more, How much would it cost to set up the car as it is right now?

2 thumbs up from me.

I've always wanted to see the 'zombie' in action that thing is a friggin rocket!

11.5 over the 1/4 mile, thats awesome!

he is right in one regard, it does sound like a cordless drill on steroids!

E drag cars are cheaper than Petrol ones all up.

yer 3 grand for the motor 4 grand for the batt's 3 grand for the inverter

hmmm 10 grand now how much does a 11's car cost to build
