Eric Huhn will be at the PRI show next week for a roundtable discussion on EV motorsports in the T.O.P.S. Lounge on December 12th at 2:30pm. As part of that discussion, I will be looking for other knowledgeable parties that will help us identify these best practices and get them on paper.
In the New Year expect to see more information from EVRSafe about formally building our various teams to start putting things down on paper. Off the top of my head I would hope to have these different groups working on their respective sections.
- Battery construction (i.e. turning a bunch of cells into an HV chunk)
- Controls and integration (including safety systems)
- Structure and physical protection
- Event planning and preparation
- Emergency response
- Recovery and disposal

The idea of the above is not to give anyone specific instructions on how to do any of this. Rather, things people need to be aware of and best practices that should be followed. Maybe some of these sections are just one paragraph. Maybe someone in our group can contribute a valuable chunk of knowledge to one section, or maybe they contribute in multiple areas.
If you’re at PRI or local to Indianapolis next week, give me a shout! Otherwise, look for more information in the New Year.
