Love the C5000, looks great, cant seem to watch the video for some reason but that might be a work related thing??
Sounds like you had a great time
Hopefully someone will put some pics up from our lot soon.

Brian Hampton asks:
"Any idea of the twisty circuit length so I can calculate speed?"
I replied saying "we weren't going very fast!", but did anyone present record the track length accurately?

The c-5000 has a throttle type assembly that lets you select three different voltages. On Saturday I think it was set up for 6/12/24 volts, then on Sunday 12/24/48volts (I'm happy to be corrected)....the "gear change" is where he is switching over to 48v
Seriously good fun
