Oodles of Brushless Stepper Motors...

Its not all as it appeared. I spoke to the people who engineered the stunt.

The G-Wiz chassis was cut in order to weaken it so that it would crumple properly. The table was made of steel plate and veneered to look like wood, and then secured using stakes.

LOL Mike you just volunteered to do EVERYTHING! Yes we're definitely going to be there so very much appreciate you're offer to help We'll be in touch for sure. :D Well, I don't want to do everything, but I'll certainly do my bit! It would be good to see some electric vehicle action in my neck of th...

The National Kit Car Show at Stoneleigh is on Sunday 4th May and Monday 5th May this year. I don't know if the BVS plans to take part, but if so, I'd like to volunteer my services to help organise everything. It's a stone throw away from me anyhow, so I'll be along with my G-Wiz and my electric bike...

The new G-Wiz i has a new front crush zone developed with Lotus.

Last year, the campaign for anti-4x4s or whatever they are called did a nice stunt on Valentines Day. They produced a 'We Love Your Car' card which they put on windscreens of G-Wizzes in London.

Right now, I think I'd have the choice between a lithium-powered G-Wiz or a marriage, but not both. So I've been looking at what else is available. I'm potentially interested in the ...

This thread has gone awful quiet. Shame really, because I still think a roving roadshow - even if it only starts with one event - would be a good thing to do. I would have thought that we would be able to get a number of exhibitors interested in attending as well - BBIG, Modec, Vetrix, NICE, Aixam, ...

Well folks, is there going to be a London to Brighton event for 2008? I have had some interest from a couple of G-Wiz owners who would like to take part. I have also got confirmation that GoinGreen would be prepared to get involved in some way, shape or form, which has to be good news: their publici...

I would recommend you talk to Martin Rees of BBIG - http://www.bbig.co.uk. This is exactly the sort of project Martin would relish and as the current holder of the UK electric car land speed record - and with ambitions to break the world land speed record this year - he knows a thing or two about a ...
