Hybrid™ is a design and engineering challenge for undergraduate and
graduate college and university students. They must design, build, and

Suckamps EV
Racing
“Suck Amps EV Racing” is the latest name for the racing team of EV
Parts Inc. It is the offshoot of Roderick’s “The Wilde Bunch” Team
Electric Racing from the early days of EV racing at Wilde Evolutions,
Inc. The term “Suck Amps” was coined in 1993 by Abby Wilde, Roderick’s
wife at the time. She was being interviewed by a film crew at the Solar
and Electric 500 at PIR (Phoenix International Raceway in Phoenix
Arizona) right after Roderick had run away with the C Stock event. They
asked her how he was able to do so well. She replied that Roderick had
won by sucking a lot of amps and “sucking amps” became a slang term
synonymous with electric racing. “Suck Amps EV Racing” continues to
push the envelope of electric vehicles in order to pave the way for
acceptance of this very old form of transportation. As Roderick says:
“We live in a fad culture. If EV’s become cool then everyone will want
one and this chunk of ground we inhabit will be a much better place.”
