If you go, can you by chance put this in your pocket and bring it back for me?

Send a message via AIM to The Toecutter
I want this:



Give it an ADC 8" motor, Zilla 1k controller, and as large of aThundersky pack as will fit. Would probably need a transmission upgrade, but even with only about 60 peak horsepower on tap, a curb weight of what would be ~1,100 pounds or so would easily allow 0-60 ~ 7 seconds. Range would be outstanding, near 250 miles if a hardtop was fabricated for this with the optimal taper.

Would be a fun little car to zip around in and wouldn't be too terribly expensive to buy a LiIon pack for it since the pack would be so small.

I was surprised to see that the museum is only open on Tues, Wed, Thurs each day being 3 hours.

I was even more surprised to show this website to the spouse and she is eager to go!! Soooo, a trip is planned to go soon. I Yahoo mapped it and its about 6 hours away. Woohoo! Roadtrip!!
