Excellent idea! I like it! You have to keep the cable from M- on the controller to the motor as short as possible, but maybe it could be placed somewhere up front, up in the vents or something. I love the idea of the fans blowing on it. You could even have the inside exposed a little to the outside air, so the fan would really keep it cool.

Did you see the advertisements for the new Fast and the Furious?
