In this episode I speak to someone I have come to think of as a modern magician…. Sasha Anis is the mastermind behind both mountain pass performance, and on point dyno. I spoke to him nearly two years ago right when he launched MountainPass, an EV oriented performance company  with a deep rooted history in motorsport.You’ll hear stories of Sasha’s exploits in racing with his lightning fast Model 3, his groundbreaking build of a hybrid race car and its mission to set Mosport lap records, and how he sees the electrified future of automotive shaping up.

Electrified Mastermind: Sasha Anis

Sasha started his automotive career by buying a small shop just to work on his own car. He started to help friends with their cars and then began charging for his service. He worked at it for several years but just couldn’t make it profitable. So he closed the shop and moved on. He worked a corporate job and realized very quickly that he just didn’t want that life, so he decided to go back to working on cars. Sasha decided to start tuning cars and use a mobile dyno to travel to the customer and called it OnPoint Dyno. He also does vehicle setup and driver coaching on top of the mobile dyno business. He now has 1 employee and a small shop to store equipment and tune cars. His latest big project was to transforming a Lotus Evora into an electric car. Sasha used the motor from a Tesla Model S, batteries from the Chevy Volt, and a MOTEC for traction control. They recently finished the car and went 11.4 in the ¼ mile on their first time out. The thinking behind this electric vehicle is preparation for the future. Sasha is betting that manufacturers and consumers are shifting towards electric cars and wants to be a leader in the performance market.
