haha that is the coolest thing ever, and to think only a few months ago I was going get an enormous spur gear machined attach to the tranny of my car, and like 100 mamba max combos, fill the boot with lipos and off we go!

NICE!!!

I wonder when/if anyone is going to eventually offer some type of bolt-on brushless kit for various gas vehicles? It would probably be a little pricey, but it would enable a lot of cars to get that off-the-line punch AND retain the decent gas mileage of normal gas engines. Still not as fast as a specially designed vehicle, but defintely a step in the right direction.

I also wonder how much of that weight and size would be reduced when/if A123 moves over to the form factor lipos use (no hard case and rectangular)?
