640bhp Electric MINI

[The Dogfather]

Sorry if this has been posted before but some bofin's have taken a MINI and fitted 4x160bhp motors. I doubt it'll handle like a MINI though. :argh: :thumbs up:

Big wheel offset and no brakes:frown:

saw it a couple of years back at the motor show, but nuts to saving the earth its not worth it if theres no induction roar or pops and bangs on the over run............

Definitely need pops and bangs, no character without that :eyes up:

Shame it's not road legal with that wheel offset, needs some Grp 5 arches. Also, they think it has >640bhp yet only does 0-100kph in 4.5s. Must weigh all of 3 tonnes. :frown:

leccy motors are not light, the unsprung weight is massive, fine on a smooth test track but imagine it on our fine roads :eek:
