i read that link george posted. interesting. the Tesla Roadster sounds like an interesting car. i have always wondered why they cant build full scale cars to be super power electrics like our 1/8's. i mean, if they have the technology to build these small motors that give us like 500 scale horsepower then they should be able to just increase the size and make a powerful real car. like a Ferrari with a Neu the size of a 5-gallon bucket and a lipo the size of a large couch cushion. lol. could you imagine. how crazy would that be.
the Tesla roadster does 0-60 in 3.9 and has max rpm of 14,000. not bad.
