That's a good idea and something I'll play with, but I am thinking the power I'll need for acceleration will be so trivial that it's not a very important that i make the perfect generator.
This is to make wacky shit and learn new stuff and promote bio fuels and hang out with cool people and get chicks... making it to Las Vegas is optional

Using a MMM on the generator side would be a horrible idea IMO, the efficiency is not there for generator use.
What is the goal of the project? Maximum distance, minimum fuel expenditure over a specified distance?
