Suspensionless car?

In reply to MrJoshua:

You need to find a junk 48v electric forklift that uses GE EV1 or better yet EV100 LX control system and transplant the whole control system into your car. It might not be any faster at max speed, but control will be several orders of magnitude better, and battery life will be improved. If the donor machine has field weakening you might get a noticeable increase in top end speed. Field weakening is like OD for DC motors.

Here's what you need to do.....

-bike power awesome in every way, light, powerful, revs to the moon, easy to swap (all ancillary components are integrated), sequential shifting, cheap

-bike or quad rear shock, adjustable dampening (compression, rebound and often high and low speed damping adjustments as well) preload, compact, and most importantly, cheap

Do these help....

I have a really nice bike motor ready to go for a car but of all my projects this one isn't worthy. This thing is ugly and primitive and happens to be electric. I have a pile of electric car parts and 5 weeks to put it all together as cheaply and easily as possible. For better or worse, this one is going to be powered by electrons.

Those look nice for what I would like to do with this thing later.
