for America's Premier EV Motorsports Event
at Mazda Raceway, Laguna Seca July 1, 2012.
Laguna Seca, CA - July 1, 2012 - With primary sponsorship by scrambls, the KleenSpeed® Technologies EV-X11 Electric Race Car led the large field of electric vehicles participating the fourth annual ReFuel Clean Power Motorsports Event. Competing in the Open Prototype class, the Scrambls/KleenSpeed EV-X11 shattered the lap time of 1:38.9 it set in winning last year's ReFuel event by over 6 seconds, completing a hot lap of the challenging Laguna Seca circuit in 1:32.046 to set a new record for the fourth year in a row.
ReFuel is the leading open competition for electric vehicles held in the United States with classes for EV prototypes, EV production vehicles, EV conversions and several classes of electric motorcycles. ReFuel 2012 had a considerably larger roster of entrants than in 2011 including the Yokahama Blue Earth HER-02 - the EV Class champion at the 2011 Pikes Peak Hill Climb, a large contingent of TESLA Roadsters and an "unofficial" group of TESLA S Pre-Production sedans, a race-Prepped CODA sedan, numerous Nissan Leafs and several BMW Active E sedans. The motorcycle category was led by Brammo's Empulse TTXGP bike and various ZERO models with a full field of privateer entries as well. CODA also held a CODA Driving Experience event.
The Scrambls/KleenSpeed EV-X11 turned the fastest lap of all the competitors by a large margin, validating the disruptive technology of the KleenSpeed genESSsys™ Race system incorporated in the world's fastest electric track racing car. The EV-X11 was piloted to the new lap record by Kevin Mitz of Rennworks Motorsports.
