That is crazy!!
Would like to see the cost of al those batteries ??
In RC cars the electrics now with brushless motors are getting quicker than most of the nitro cars!!

WOW
THATS PRETTY AMAZING

I was speaking to an electric motor guru, who makes all the cars for movie sets, etc. I remember him saying 100% of the torque was available at 0-1 rpm !

Beauty of electric motors peak torque available as soon as you turn it on!!
