We have been chasing the 100mph mark for about 6 years, buying the zilla and two ADC 8's from EVParts back in 2005.
This latest car is the Mk III. After two previous attempts we knew it was going to be an up hill struggle.
We decided to start from scratch for Black Current III, designing out all the issues we thought we'd have and have found before from the outset.

We knew we had to go for a rear diff and this mean't we'd have to tubular chasis the whole car. 
The motor setup ofcause could only be done by one person in the world and that was Jim Husted of HiTorque.
It was a stretch to fund it but Jim took three ADC 8" in part exchange, which he was going to build for stock.

There have been several hi pro electrical/electronic EV components pioneers who have helped us forge ahead in our quest for speed - Otmar Ebenhoech with his incredible Godzilla-Zilla controllers, Rich 'Madman' Rudman who after co-designing the DCP line of Raptor controllers went on to provide us with his aggressive high current Manzanita Micro fast-chargers, and now it's Jim Husted with his hotrod DC motors. I am happy to have been a co-instigator with all of three of these over-amped maniacs :-)

From there on in we just worked our asses of trying to get it finished. Paint was done by a friend in our dusty garage for a crate of beers and that's kinda how all the car has come together.

Still running lead batteries which were kindly donated to us by a local electronic company.

Olly.
