Re: Early EV-ICE competition (was EV News Flash!)
In a message dated 98-07-31 07:07:00 EDT, you write:
<< According to Dr. Wakefield in "History of the Electric Automobile",
the first significant EV vs ICE car track competition was held at
Narragansett Park in September 1896 at the Rhode Island State Fair.
After combining the results of three heats on three days, the winner
was a Riker Electric, second place went to the Morris & Salom
electric, and the six gasoline powered vehicles finished 3rd through
8th. >>
Thanks!
