WikispeedCA - May have a location in San Carlos! Team = 7 and growing!


Recently with the final publication of the article in the San Mateo Daily Journal I got a call from a former Stanford aeronautical engineer with experience building F1 race cars using carbon fiber.  Wow! What a hit.  A couple of team members went to meet this legend and we had a good conversation about  the challenges we face in trying to build a new car company.  We talked about potential enhancements to the existing Wikispeed car design and posed a few questions we will have to ask Joe Justice.

We all agreed the most important characteristic of the car to keep in mind is the ultra efficiency - #100mpg must be maintained.

I wonder how much different early Tesla conversations looked from our own.
