The FIA has officially sanctioned a new electric racing series. It is called the Electric Production Car Series, and as you can see from the above pic, will exclusively use the Tesla Model S. Which means it"ll be fast. Because the Model S in question is the all-singing, all-conquering P100D. Electric GT Holdings Inc the series organisers said that just last week, the race-prepped Model S passed its official FIA crash test. There"s a three-heat" qualifying format, followed by a 60km (37 mile) day race and a 60km dusk race. 20 drivers will line up to race the cars, which run on bespoke Pirellis and feature Alcon brakes, R53 suspension, composite bodywork and a chunk of power. 778bhp to be precise, or 585kW.
