Only 45 days remain until the start of the TTXGP, and electric hopefuls (http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/ttxgp-entries-announced/) that once only existed on paper are starting to hit the pavement. We were delighted this morning to see that the*Mission One from Mission Motors (http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/news/mission-electric-sportbike/), has been spotted taking laps at Infineon Raceway (Sears Point to CA locals) in California, with pictures to boot.

It looks like most of the original CGI of the digital concept has made it into street form. We’re still not crazy about the nose section, but the rest of the bike looks like a candidate for a TRON re-imagining. There’s no word on lap times or other performance numbers, but it looks like Tom Montano was giving the bike a proper thrashing around the coastal track.*
