Electric Porsche 911

This car was originally built by John James Racing. It was owned by Jim and raced for a number of years, then changed hands and was converted back to a street car.

Tremec Electric GT converted it to Tesla power (eGT913 system) and it debuted in their 2021 SEMA booth. Since then, it has undergone a significant rebuild with custom paint by Auto Addiction OC, suspension by Elephant Racing and plenty of custom touches by Ruffian Cars.
