Big Rob Regular Registered: March 2005	Re: Electric cars.... Mon, 12 December 2005 22:47 i gernerally thought trucks used air starter motors. The good thing about starters are they are powerful. The downside is they have a very low duty cycle. They are made to run at a few seconds not constantly for minutes on end. Thats why they are good for the drags, ony need 9s worth. Another idea is maybe talking to the guy who electrified the ariel atom? Maybe have a look at the briggs and stratton Etek. I'm not sure how much power your going to need in a charade but these things are pretty cool. 8hp continious and 16hp max. So it may be possible if you fabricated one of these into each wheel. http://www.gravitron.co.uk/html/laaa4002.html Thats also another idea. Good luck [Report message to a moderator]
