Once again, I would like to iterate that it's not mainly on this forum that I got that hint of negativity toward things that haven't been done yet.. nor it is primarily on this particular subject... it's just really common that people dismiss things b/c of what "can't be done" or "won't work" because "the numbers say so" and most of them don't even double check the paper part to make sure that it was all correct...

I guess what I'm saying is that a lot of people are more willing to find every reason something won't work, and spend more time making excuses than getting results. If everyone spent more time working on things, even those that are guaranteed to fail, rather than spending all that time thinking of every reason it won't work, they'd probably find a way to make it work.

Kinda falls into the "it doesn't benefit me, directly, so why should I spend my time on it?" argument...

But, I digress. Back on topic - I still like the 600HP E-Mini Cooper I posted awhile back in another thread. It had hub motors.
