The batteries will be A123 20Ah prismatic cells.

These cells will be arranged into 8 modules, with 52 cells each. The cells will be combined using a 4p/104s pattern.
I finished building 1 of the 8 modules last weekend, but haven't put it into the car.
I wanted to have a test drive this weekend, but the drive shaft shop sent me a drive shaft that was 3" short than what I asked for like lol wat. How do you mess that up? However, they have agreed to fix it so we will see how this turns out.

anyway, pics!!


























Edit: Here is the drive shaft I received. The workmanship is there, however it is significantly shorter than I ordered / would be considered usable.
