This is pretty cool!

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!

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)?
