Trip Day 4. A few days ago, Clemens contacted the local Electric Automobile Association and told them about our trip. Via the grapevine, a man called Bernie Karl heard about the project and invited us up to his resort about 60 miles north east of Fairbanks. He promised us free accommodation, food, the renowned revitalising properties [...]

On Trip Day 3 we set off from our base on the outskirts of Anchorage to Fairbanks, over 420 miles away! The team was up late making sure that everything was sorted for the journey ahead, and then of course we had to be up early at 6am to set off for the first long [...]

Trip day 2 dawned bright and early, and despite very little sleep the night before, the team were buzzing with anticipation! There was a lot to do to prepare for the trip including picking up our motorhome rental, the car, all our equipment, and other last minute jobs. Before all this work could be contemplated, [...]

Trip Day 1. Today saw us complete our first full day of the trip, despite not actually driving the SRZero at all.  As part of our schedule and logistics planning, we had always allowed the first day of the trip to be getting ourselves organised, and we certainly needed it! First off, we went to [...]

For Racing Green Endurance, this blog post is certainly one of the most exciting! For a start, it’s being written at around 33,000ft as the team wings their way across the US mid-west to Anchorage, Alaska, thereby signifying the first day of our Pan-American trip! After a year and a half of hard work from [...]

As if we needed it, the team had another massive reality check as we booked out flights out to Anchorage, Alaska, and back from Buenos Aires in Argentina. Somehow, when the flights are booked, you have your e-ticket, and you know you have to be at Heathrow at 6.30am on June 28th, things become very [...]

Despite the fact that we are leaving in 11 days time (it’s still sinking in by the way!) there is still quite a bit of logistics work to do. But now that the car is working and engineering work has pretty much stopped, we have drafted in the engineers to help. See the picture for [...]

Wow, what a weekend the last few days have been! As Andy mentioned in the previous blog post, team RGE attempted to drive from London to Paris on Saturday on just one charge, and then head back on the Sunday after a full charge, some nice French food and wine, and a bit of Parisian [...]

After the successful M25 trip the RGE team decided it was time to try something a little more… international. That is why this weekend, we are going to attempt London to Paris on one charge, in another attempt to show the true potential of electric cars! We will be at the London Eye from 10:00am [...]

Another day and a milestone we have all been long looking forward to has come: driving around the M25 twice on one charge! Now for those of you who aren’t acquainted with the “M25″ it is the main motorway ring road around the capital, measuring 115 miles (184km) in length. The Tesla has been around [...]
