Pikes Peak race car Ep19 – Drag racing

From Electric Classic Cars.

It’s our final chance to test and tune the car before it get’s shipped out to Colorado for Pikes Peak. So we’ve taken BugZappa to Europes home of Drag Racing, the world famous Santa Pod.

The day was really busy so we only got 4 runs in. But we had plenty of logs to mull over at the end of the day.

It seems that traction control is very sensitive on the motor control system which caused lots of derating at lower speeds and full throttle. All good info to improve the car before Pikes Peak.
