Not hard to sync motors at all. Not even a concern.
I think the unsprung weight is the main disadvantage. I have seen electric motors getting banged up all over the place I don't think that would hurt them until you went for heavy large units. Maybe I better check how big an heavy 10Kw leccy is first eh?

Good episodes. For me it was great to be taken completely into the unknown with the electric car. I really look forward to where you go with the electric car project.
Strangely, of all the MCM cars, this one is now the one I would be most interested in have a good look over and going for a ride in.
edit: yeah, as rob says above.Torque sells tow cars.
Horsepower wins horse races.

bring on the S13 drift electric car!Originally posted by rob_2JZA61 View PostI would happily watch a series showing an in-depth rebuild of the electric turd.
learn new things and would be an excuse to play with fiber glass as well if you re-did the battery tubs to suit new batteries.
this build is screaming for a sponsor.

Well, hub motors are a bit heavier than I hoped
But this one does 30kw peak. So and extra 60kw boost off the line for 1 second one typically undriven wheels would at leave be fun

Looks like heat is a fair deal of the issue too for continuous output."And I know that arseholes grow on trees but I'm here to trim the leaves" Peeping Tom, Mike Patton

Huh? Model S P90D has 760hp worth of electric motor (arguable if the battery pack can keep up though) and enough grunt to run a 10 second quarter. High Horsepower electric motors are well are truly available. I also highly doubt the electric motors are costing Tesla 50grand each and still be able to sell the car for 125 grand.Originally posted by K-MAC View PostSo until some one makes a 500kw electric car I have not one shred of interest.

Ahhahaha, fuck, good times. Forgot about that video.Originally posted by Dave View Post
Pity there's no vid of Rainwulf's epic fwd rollbacks."Where can we get hold of a Vincent Black Shadow?" "Whats that?" "A fantastic bike," I said. "The new model is something like two thousand cubic inches, developing two hundred brake-horsepower at four thousand revolutions per minute on a magnesium frame with two styrofoam seats and a total curb weight of exactly two hundred pounds."

No, not the ones he did in the street later on where he rolled backwards around the corner.Originally posted by Mr Ed View PostAhhh... those are in that vid"Where can we get hold of a Vincent Black Shadow?"
