GTM - electric vehicle

[Kotyk]

Hi folks, I am considering doing a GTM build with my adult son. However instead of a corvette engine we are thinking that making it an EV would be something of interest for future driving. Even though I am old school, he is thinking 20 years out. Has anybody attempted an EV, and if so, what were the issues? With Porsche coming out with an all electric vehicle and the massive push toward EV, this seems to be the way to go (even though I am still old school).

Thoughts / comments / issues??
