  <other-notes>Want to drive each wheel with a seperate motor/controller to create a four wheel drive car.  All batteries are ordered, and two motors/controllers.  Direct drive transmission for the rear wheels is nearly complete.
8/4/2009 - Installed rear transmission and successfully made the rear wheels go around under electric power.  The last set of batteries are being shipped from Seattle and I hope to have them soon.

9/6/2009 - I received my batteries last month and lots of work accomplished.  As a matter of fact, I hit the road yesterday!!!  Performance is about what I planned for with a top speed of 62mph.  Still lots of things in a prototype stage so still lots to do.</other-notes>
