finishing 5th in the MX2 World Championship in his first year and
returning in 2010 to finish 2nd in the MX2 World Championship at only

William "Chip" Yates - Road Racer, Team Owner, Chief Designer - SWIGZ.COM Pro Racing Electric Superbike


In
January, 2010, Chip Yates and his two volunteer engineers Ben Ingram
and Robert Ussery set out to fulfill an outrageous goal: to design,
build and race an electric superbike capable of delivering gasoline
bike lap times with no outside funding or full-time staff.  Difficulties
and setbacks abounded - a patent-pending front wheel KERS braking
system was required and invented, Chinese batteries were scrapped,
budgets ran low and the bike was banned from TTXGP and FIM e-Power
competition just as it neared completion.  But on January
9, 2011, the small team made history as Chip rode to two podium spots
against gasoline powered superbikes, setting the fastest lap time of
any bike in his second race and a top speed of 158 mph on the front
straight at Auto Club Speedway.
