this was a funny thing! i walked and thinked today and came to a simular conclusion!...small windpowerd generators (that can deliver good volts and amps) that is sitting under (in the line shaft?) in a "windtunnel" that forces a lot of air from the front and under the car in to the windtunnel to turn the generators, and perhaps have a newman machine in each wheel axel that also loads the batterypack

EACH air resitance (to the car) wil l the car slow down


more losses than gain !

pese, "EACH air resistance (to the car) wil l the car slow down more losses than gain !"

That may not be true depending how the wind resistance is utilized. Wind resistance can be used to push as well as pulsed power can be utilized to keep the motors cool as well as the collapsing fields and back EMF's can be recovered to recharge batteries.
There is a lot of things that I have yet to see tried and I think it would be wise to start testing some of those things.

One of the videos that pcockriel posted http://youtube.com/watch?v=XRYkIzjmCR4&feature=related proves how wind resistance can be utilized to create a push in the oposite direction of the wind.

What's wrong with you, people??? There's a quite normal, petrol driven convertible with a ten-fan equippment, and you're persuming it's a wind-driven???
OMG....  It's scarry.
WTF?
