FIRST LOOK! Verified 0-60mph Launch for E-Clipse Race Edition
We recently took out our Solar E-Clipse Race Edition to the LA Riverbed on a beautiful sunny December morning to finally GPS verify the 0-60mph and top speed.
Using the 'Draggie' a device specifically designed for capturing highly accurate drag times for all vehicles utilising precise GPS location, we began the test and the results are in!
