That would probably be me... off Harbor drive near the Convention Center. I was a the stop light, and seriously questioning the 400ft/lbs TQ that everyone says this has. I have a 2007 Corvette Z06 that I track as well and coming from that monster, its really hard to find anything comparable. Suffice it to say, traction control OFF, Sport Mod ON, traffic clear - Light turns green and I'm off heading up the bridge. Wheel spin at first and after about 30mph it starts to pick up FAST. I get the the top of the bridge and uh, oh... Harbor police parked on the side with his gun. Instantly lights me up. I pull over exchange the typical greetings with registration, license and insurance. He runs my info and writes me up for 62 in a 45. He asked if I was in a hurry... I chuckled, "No, just seeing what all this hype was in my new electric car..." He laughed a bit, and said "Well now you can tell all your friends that yes, it does have 400ft/lbs TQ, and yes, you did get a speeding ticket to prove it. I laughed, signed the ticket and went on my way.
Lesson learned. This car is fun! (And way cheaper than a 7.0L Z06!)
