Yes, close to me :) I had my recall done instead of going there, but I would have loved to try a Tesla (which was possible for 50$).

I was there with my Zero, My Volt and my electric snowblower =) but the snowblower was just for the show and did not count for the guiness record.

We was 3 Zero:

my 2012 S
the Xu2011 of my friend Donald
The DS 2012 of another great guy

there was also 4 Sora electric motorcycle

I had chance to discus with their ingeneer and learned that they are using the Sevcon size 6 and 100V of EIG battery

This was amazing event!!

I'm thinking of riding up to Montreal and maybe Quebec City this summer.  If this event was in late June or July I would have gone. 

Hope to meet you sometime this summer, it would be fun to go on a ride!

From my observations there was about 20 conversion and the rest  was productions vehicules.

The Sora cost about 45000$ but these are real luxury bike Alot of carbon fiber, and machined aluminum and great look and power!
