a motor on a tubed chassi cant really be compared to a full road car, stick that motor in somthing of a similar weight and just laugh at how much it sucks.

still pretty cool tho, racing from a roll, lol

i'd hardly call this "mind blowing"... just look at the power to weight ratio. I'd rather a full bodied car with all the luxury trims and still be damn quick.. than that kit car with "free" air conditioning :)

another aussie tryin to make a buck in america... tsk tsk

another KIWI inventing something amazing in the motor world... much like the guy who invented the jet boat and Mr. Britten who made a motorbike in his shed which was years ahead of its time.

the power to weight ratio isnt that much better then a Ferrari or the Porka and as stated its based on the Atom which is a road legal car.

the batteries in this version weigh over 250kgs alone from memory... id definately have one as a nice weekend track toy.

Power to weight advantage where????

Porka GT = 605BHP and 3000lbs

Aerial X1 = 300Bhp and 1500lbs

wheres the advantage? its at a disadvantage by my calculations as it has less then half the power but half the weight

dont like the way they compare it to full size cars, y not compare it to a Hayabusa or R1?

probably cause its not a motorbike?

so if they invented a mini that ran 10s from factory they shouldnt compare it to s super saloon?

its merely to show what you can achieve using alternate fuels. A point that seems to escape most people. The car is ELECTRIC. Performance electric cars are few and far between unless you count that ugly 600kw 6 wheeled japanese thing.

Exactly what inark said, the point of the clip was to examine the potential of alternative powers sources other than fossil fuels. One day there wont be any petrol to burn and we'll all prob be driving these 11 sec things. Another thing to consider is the price of petrol versus plugging your car in the wall for a few hours. As time goes on and technology progresses the weight on the batteries will come down aswell as provide more power.

Also there is no advantage, the power to weight is about the same anyway, WTF are you guys on??
