ROTFLMAO ---"The suspension on the car is not equipped to handle this kind of track...Regular cars not designed to handle that -- even the DeLorean. " Can't handle banked curves??!!?? You mean like highways have? Or their onramps? Banked tracks are designed to make it easier on a car traveling at high speed, not harder. What a load of crap.
---"They are measuring the voltage on the batteries. The array of 12 batteries charged at 160 volts this morning, and coming back into the pit now, they measure at 139 volts. Tilley said something about six volts were lost during start-up." Hmm 144V pack, 139V would indicate that the pack is empty wouldn't it? Well maybe a bit MORE than empty. ---"As the car is sitting there in the pit, with people watching on, the voltage is coming up on the batteries, up to 140.4. 'It's like it is recharging from the sky or something!' reports Ken." I can't believe these folks haven't got a single clue about how batteries work or their natural recovery process. And this is from the "Reporter" not the conmen running this farce.
