Bored?...czech out these cars

I was taking my lunch break and ran accross these kit cars...I don' t know a whole lot about them, but they make for a semi-interesting thing to look at when bored at work .

IMO....kitcars - our cars = people at the fair - AZers. Some of them don't look so bad, though.

must sees:

"Cobra"
minority report Lexus concept - neat car, but take a look at the inside (I know why it's like that...)
"very low & exotic..."

Thats because electric motors are about 95% efficient, while gas motors are only about 20% efficient.

i think the electric motor in the Pruis if measured alone produces somewhere between 250-300 lb.ft. of torque. I think most people say it's closer to 300.

Reminds me of the story about the guy who parked his 360 outside a kitcar show and when he came out there were two guys standing by it one telling the other about a couple of things the owner could do to make it look more authentic...
