There&#8217;s not a lot to report. The car is just barely drivable in its current state. My top speed was about 40mph on the flats. Going up the big hill (Linda Vista Rd) I could barely go 25mph. I didn&#8217;t measure my state of charge or amps because I hadn&#8217;t hooked up the shunt yet.<\/p>\n<p>I noticed some arcing from the motor as the RPMs went up near the tops of first and second gears. I had to be very careful to keep the RPM low. I had the Soliton Jr&#8217;s output set to 150 volts and 600 amps.<\/p>\n<p>My wife followed me so that I would have some help if the need arose. Fortunately, there were no other problems. The whole drive took about 35 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>This is the route I took. My main consideration was going up the gentlest grade climbing out of Mission Valley.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"425\" height=\"350\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" marginheight=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?f=d&amp;source=s_d&amp;saddr=815+University+Ave,+San+Diego,+CA+92103&amp;daddr=32.74898,-117.17232+to:32.7531987,-117.1945456+to:32.75521,-117.19607+to:32.76402,-117.1978+to:32.8176,-117.17932+to:Balboa+Ave+%26+Mt.+Abernathy+Ave&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=FXKy8wEdKFQE-SnNPJ9D21TZgDGXtr6lvspNRw%3BFbS18wEdoBcE-SllPf-e1FTZgDF2BEuQQdVWZw%3BFS7G8wEdz8AD-SmdDbNl3qregDFOr_zGtyxuvQ%3BFQrO8wEd2roD-SnFXbDB3aregDGdBsUowZYZPA%3BFXTw8wEdGLQD-SlT1Nj36aregDGR68ltJBxy5w%3BFcDB9AEdSPwD-SlFnLqCcwDcgDGu3TrR-m1itA%3BFRzM9AEddAgE-SkRsvjNdQDcgDEhjF5vlNgkew&amp;mra=dpe&amp;mrsp=2&amp;sz=15&amp;via=1,2,3,4,5&amp;sll=32.75617,-117.186913&amp;sspn=0.026707,0.034761&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;ll=32.75617,-117.186913&amp;spn=0.026707,0.034761&amp;z=11&amp;output=embed\"><\/iframe><br \/><small><a href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?f=d&amp;source=embed&amp;saddr=815+University+Ave,+San+Diego,+CA+92103&amp;daddr=32.74898,-117.17232+to:32.7531987,-117.1945456+to:32.75521,-117.19607+to:32.76402,-117.1978+to:32.8176,-117.17932+to:Balboa+Ave+%26+Mt.+Abernathy+Ave&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=FXKy8wEdKFQE-SnNPJ9D21TZgDGXtr6lvspNRw%3BFbS18wEdoBcE-SllPf-e1FTZgDF2BEuQQdVWZw%3BFS7G8wEdz8AD-SmdDbNl3qregDFOr_zGtyxuvQ%3BFQrO8wEd2roD-SnFXbDB3aregDGdBsUowZYZPA%3BFXTw8wEdGLQD-SlT1Nj36aregDGR68ltJBxy5w%3BFcDB9AEdSPwD-SlFnLqCcwDcgDGu3TrR-m1itA%3BFRzM9AEddAgE-SkRsvjNdQDcgDEhjF5vlNgkew&amp;mra=dpe&amp;mrsp=2&amp;sz=15&amp;via=1,2,3,4,5&amp;sll=32.75617,-117.186913&amp;sspn=0.026707,0.034761&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;ll=32.75617,-117.186913&amp;spn=0.026707,0.034761\" style=\"color:#0000FF;text-align:left\">View Larger Map<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ejetta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/elevation_graph.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-36\" title=\"elevation_graph\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ejetta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/elevation_graph_66542.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I drove the E-Jetta home successfully.
