unlatch and dump that piece of russian shit.
corner entry was hamilton car front left, midline to verstappen car. Hamilton has a right to the corner
hamiltons car is midline of verstappens car on corner entry.
this pinballing thing?...where do you see that, as i don’t see a single video out there that shows hamiltons car change direction by any amount at all, nor do i hear any racing commentator say that either.
4.18 million miles of roads in usa... and you want a post every 5 seconds..at 60mph, thats 12 posts a mile... 48m posts. motorways..48,440 miles.. that’s 600,000 posts....in your world multiply that 12 posts a mile by >10x
And these posts cannot be simply passive with comms, the road shape is the least dangerous…
This is the most stupid article i’ve seen in a long time. Even some basic maths would have saved jason from writing this garbage...a matching Tesla S 2250kg car made entirely from these batteries would only have 47kwh, instead of the current 100...and when you take into account the tyres, rims, motors, glass, seats,…
i like it...it is the electric cab fwd style, well proven. But those gates on the sides, and drawers, etc...cost a fortune, and murder the structural rigidity, unless you have a rigid skateboard with a whole vehicle chassis on top, which defeats the purpose also.
Just make it look like that, tailgate, power plugs, with…
why bother, its an $80,000 instant loss, just buy an older 6 speed V8 or M5, and have fun, you’re going to get trounced by a plaid+ anyway.
the skin is the chassis..its effectively a monocoque
20,000lbs of batteries?...where did you get that number?
6000lbs of batteries could offer 3000 lb-feet of torque, and or 2400 hp, and about 800-900kWh
If the amount of batteries were as you quoted, they couldn’t sell the semi at under $200k.
agree...another real issue is battery supply at prices required to make cars.
In effect, an EV car maker has to be able to make a battery factory, or its then reliant upon market forces.
batteries at US$1,183 per kilowatt hour in 2010, and $380 in 2015 were that reason for not making truck battery systems...but now at $100-ish...its game on.
Presume it’s said in jest.........
:We can probably stop with the quarter mile time obsession now. It’s just gone too far. Nobody needs a car that can do 0-60 in under 2 seconds. It’s absurd that anyone with $150,000 can just place an order for this level of rolling vehicular manslaughter from the factory:
As nobody…
err... the skin is the chassis, so, add another 800 for stuff/ fun, and 1200 lbs of battery and 300 of motors, wheels, shocks at 500, and your 300lb tailgate, throw in another 500 for a laugh, ...and you roll in at 4600lbs..hell, add another 500 for other other things, and its still 5100 lbs...with 500+ torques....…
well, 2 weeks and 250,000 orders later, that was a massive FAIL
you are right, i looked it up, and know understand more about battery chemistry. Thx for the info
thank goodness you chirped in...as i’m sure that they completely forgot about that, even thou the S and 3 and ultra slippery, and they have a related company that makes rockets, who likely don’t know anything about aerodynamics
professional car designer?....
?..how do you think they towed the trailer?
