Looking at the battery tray, I would think it would be annoying to have to remove 2 screws everytime to change the battery pack.

I finally got to see one of these things upclose tonight at Socal. I must say I am very impressed. When I saw the first pics of it online I was a bit disappointed: the layout just looked "off". Seeing the (what I assume is) final/very near final version made my draw drop. It looked much better than I expected, and on the track it was on rails. I'm definately gonna get one when it comes out

Looking at those more detailed pics (darn, I forgot your name already , but cheers!!!) it does appear that there is actually room to fit corally connectors on the cells, the only difficult part, is actually getting the cells up in through the slot though.
Only thing I am wondering though, is the thread that the battery tray screws are going into, do they use a captive nyloc nut, or is it straight into plastic, if it is, then that is the only flaw into the system, if it goes into a captive nut, then that is a trick system...... and I bet someone will bring out a carbon fibre tray.....
Still, looking at the detail pics of the suspension, it still feels to me to a certain extent the suspension HAS been compromised to obtain the cells down the centre, but that is purely my opinion.
