Tweety Bird EV burnout

Turn up the volume! Myers Motors NmG total electric personal commuter car. Rear brake temporarily disabled via proportioning valve. Electric motor input power is 93.8 HP, which is programmable with any PC computer up to about 180 HP. Car weighs 1300 LBS.
Few people have ever seen a total electric vehicle except for golf carts and airport shuttles so they base their idea of Electric Vehicle performance on those examples. This demonstration is performed to prove otherwise. The torque curve of an EV traction motor is flat from 0 RPM to around 5,000RPM. That is why Tweety instantly blisters its tire at 75 MPH during the burnout and never slows up until the petal is lifted. The reason for line-lock braking is so the car stays in the field of view. Also, there is not enough room on the street for a no-brake burnout.

*GREEN POLICE!*

There you go. Fill the air with burnt rubber particles from your electric car.

Oops! Sorry about that officer!

As Otmar Ebenhoech said, "My EV would be zero emissions, if my tires would stop smoking".

Doesn't the electric motor get hotter and hotter and get destroyed if you do that?

[HotJuiceElectric]

Nope. The motor is probably the toughest part of the drive system. It is not even warm to the touch after a burnout like this.

The White Zombie uses two of the same type motors that are in Tweety. Search YouTube for White Zombie drag car.

@flodeezul I worked at the Corbin sparrow assembly plant in Hollister California sad to say it shutdown in 01, but i think a few ppl still have parts or they might have opened some other place there were alot of parts of un assembled E.V's when they shutdown!!! retail was $16,000 per sparrow! =D

@HotJuiceElectric Where can you find these?



[flodeezul]

lol! i never thought an electric car would do that

[GlassByThaddeus]

The purpose of a burn out is to heat the tire up so they will get better traction at the start of the race. You will see Indy cars doing quick left right turns during a yellow flag to keep the tire temp up. It's all about traction.

On the street, it's a waste

[crushed51]

I wonder if somebody can explain to me the purpose of burn outs with cars motorcycles, or any other motor vehicles for that matter. As far as I can see the sole purpose is to make a hel of a noise, a hell of a stink, and a hell of a mess, not to mention disrupting the peace and quiet of the neighborhood, am I missing something, or is that it ?.

Why do they allow children to abuse their parents vehicles like this?

[FxOxC]

looks like you have the original controller or did you tweek the new one?

[lancelo96]

looks like something George Jetson would drive

@PatrikMacGoohan its ok the tyres are recycled vege burgers

[steemy2]

electrics have TONS more torque than gas engine. but, the power dies off at higher rpm for an electric motor.
