Electric Motorcycle Events / Zero MX flat track setup
« on: November 15, 2013, 10:56:07 AM »
Last March we got a Zero MX and spent about a month preparing it for dirt track (wheels, tires, suspension, etc). In April we first raced it to find out where we were on the setup. In May I got our first win on it at Perris SCFTA track. Got another class win in June @Perris and a couple of wins in July at Ventura County Raceway. They are all fairly short tracks (under 1/4 mile) so using just one (45lb) battery is sufficient for the event. The 'all-up' weight is 228lb with one battery and 273lb with two. An extra 45lb up top does not help handling so we just run one battery. If we can get it hooked up well exiting the corners it runs comparably with 450s -750s down the straightaways.
