    I'm exploring all battery location option. Right no I'm looking at 33% in front of forward firewall. 66% of batteries where engine is normally. If I use the radiator area I could get closer to a 50/5o weight distribution.

    The only thing I want to disclose now.
    It will be a Flux Vector AC motor controller. (my design)
    Obviously an AC motor.
    First car will be single motor. Street, Autocross, HPDE
    Second car will have more than one motor. (2 or 4) My son wants to change the chassis to an R.
