Hi Guys
My "Device" is a crude and primitive version of what you are thinking of
http://www.diyelectriccar.com/forum...dubious-device-44370p15.html?highlight=duncan
But it is great fun!
If I was doing it again I would be thinking about a Leaf motor/transmission - with one of the DIY controllers that the electronic guys are working on - or even a Tesla power unit
The two requirements of simple lightweight and good aerodynamics conflict a bit - I went for the simple but I did overbuild it a bit so it is a bit too heavy
