Sorry speediphatt, my previous message crossed with yours! Basically your little experiment with you missus's kitchen scales demonstrated in real time what happens when you boot the throttle from a standing start. Trying to calculate it would have probably taken many times longer!

What this basically means is that we can conclude that AE got the battery/motor/electronics confiuration right!!

So why are all these guys who are running chassis with the motor on the 'wrong' side feeling a reduction in torque steer etc? Is it such a subtle effect that people are simply imagining performance gains that aren't there? Or are these chassis' performing so well in other ways that this is improving times etc rather than it being anything to do with the torque steer issue?

Don't flame me - I'm just thinking aloud
