 KleenSpeed Returns to ReFuel for the 4th time 

 World's Fastest Electric Race Car to Defend Title at ReFuel 2012

 

Moffett Field, CA-June 29, 2012

 

The SCRAMBLS / KLEENSPEED EV-X11 and the race team are ready for the 4th Annual ReFuel EV Speed Trial Event this coming Sunday, JULY 1 at Mazda Raceway, Laguna Seca, CA.  We are looking forward to setting a new lap record and maintaining our position as the fastest EV race track car in the world for the fourth straight year.  

Following our test sessions this month at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, CA, and at Mazda Raceway, Laguna Seca, the KLEENSPEED Technologies race team returned to headquarters at the NASA AMES Facilty in Moffett Field to analyze the data and make several improvements to the EV-X11.  

The team analyzed the the 20 different streams of data from the EV-X11 electric power system derived from the many laps of testing.   For the first time, the EV-X11 will be running at 100% power for this year's record run and will be driven by a pro racer, Kevin Mitz, of Rennworks Motorsport.

Through the control options provided by the KLEENSPEED genESSys™ Battery Management System, the final race set up will provide for the utilization of peak amps and volts from the battery packs. The liquid cooled UQM motor and controller, coupled with the KLEENSPEED components and genESSysRace electric storage system, are all completely programmable via the KLEENSPEED Integrated Vehicle System which will allow us to reach higher levels of sustained power use for this year's ReFuel record attempt. 

The EV-X11 is now ready for the record run.
